Efficient Shortest Path Index Maintenance on Dynamic Road Networks with Theoretical Guarantees
Summary: Dynamic maintenance of Contraction Hierarchies (CH) for road networks; a shortcut-centric paradigm targets a small set of updates. SS-Graph and shortcut weight propagation enable streaming and batch updates with theoretical guarantees, delivering 2–3 orders of magnitude speedup over prior work.
