Explore the concept of adaptive maps in this 35-minute conference talk from the Fields Institute's Mini-symposium on Sensor Network Localization and Dynamical Distance Geometry. Delve into the personalized route design problem, examining how the suitability of a route can vary depending on the user or vehicle. Discover how adaptive maps dynamically adjust the location of points of interest based on the user's perspective, such as how distances appear shorter when cycling compared to walking. Investigate the mathematical challenges involved in creating these adaptive maps, including the use of non-standard measures of distance. Learn about the research context, underlying models, and real-world applications through examples like tourist route planning. Gain insights into this innovative approach to mapping and navigation that considers individual needs and preferences.
