SpeakNav: Voice-based Route Description Language Understanding for Template-driven Path Search
Summary: SpeakNav translates spoken, free-form route descriptions into POI–distance constraints using RT-BERT and template-driven path queries. Hybrid distance labeling, branch-and-bound search, and PB-tree indexing enable efficient route recommendation beyond fixed source/destination inputs. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
