A Demonstration of KAFY: An Extensible and Scalable Transformers-Based System for Trajectory Data Analysis

Summary: KAFY is an extensible, scalable transformer-based platform for end-to-end trajectory analytics. Its initial release combines three transformers with five operations—summarization, generation, prediction, imputation, and classification—and exposes extensibility through interactive scenarios.
