1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, in a processor, user input comprising identities of one or more destinations;
determining, in the processor, an optimal path from an estimated location of a mobile device to the one or more destinations based at least in part on a measurement of similarity between one or more points of interest along the optimal path and the one or more destinations; and
presenting the optimal path to a user.

Abstract
The subject matter disclosed herein relates to a system and method for determining navigation instructions within a pedestrian navigation environment. For example, a system and method are provided for determining an optimal path to a destination. An optimal path may be determined based at least in part on a measurement of similarity between one or more points of interest and one or more destinations. Such a measurement of similarity may be based at least in part on predefined criteria between the one or more destinations and one or more points of interest.
