Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The use of map service for pedestrians has expanded by the spread of the location information service and Internet services by the cellular phone. There have been various researches to generate effective deformed maps to mobile devices with a small display automatically. The existing techniques are based on making road shape horizontal and vertical, and quantizing of intersection angle. Deformed maps generated by them have a high level of visibility, but they are not easy to understand for users. In this paper, we propose a road shape transformation algorithm based on cognitive science. It can generate deformed maps that can be understandable in a small display and has easiness of route understanding. By applying our proposed algorithm to about 400 node road-network data, we confirmed that our proposed algorithm work efficiently.
