Real-life mobile phone data may contain noisy instances, which is a fundamental issue for building a prediction model with many potential negative consequences. The complexity of the inferred model may increase, may arise overfitting…
Property Directed Reachability (PDR) is a powerful algorithm for formal verification of hardware and software systems, but its performance is highly sensitive to parameter configurations. Manual parameter tuning is time-consuming and…
Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are known to be the source of many security problems, and as such, they would greatly benefit from automated management. This requires robustly identifying devices so that appropriate network security…
Multiple antenna arrays play a key role in wireless networks for communications but also localization and sensing. The use of large antenna arrays pushes towards a propagation regime in which the wavefront is no longer plane but spherical.…
Stop location detection, within human mobility studies, has an impacts in multiple fields including urban planning, transport network design, epidemiological modeling, and socio-economic segregation analysis. However, it remains a…
Smart meters, devices measuring the electricity and gas consumption of a household, are currently being deployed at a fast rate throughout the world. The data they collect are extremely useful, including in the fight against climate change.…
We outline the constraints faced by operators when deciding to share de-identified data with researchers or policy makers. We describe a conservative approach that we have taken to harness the value of CDRs for infectious disease…
The accurate modeling of indoor radio propagation is crucial for localization, monitoring, and device coordination, yet remains a formidable challenge, due to the complex nature of indoor environments where radio can propagate along…
This paper addresses the problem of human body detection---particularly a human body lying on the ground (a.k.a. casualty)---using point cloud data. This ability to detect a casualty is one of the most important features of mobile rescue…
Data encryption is the primary method of protecting the privacy of consumer device Internet communications from network observers. The ability to automatically detect unencrypted data in network traffic is therefore an essential tool for…
Autonomous driving datasets are often skewed and in particular, lack training data for objects at farther distances from the ego vehicle. The imbalance of data causes a performance degradation as the distance of the detected objects…
Cardiac auscultation is one of the most cost-effective techniques used to detect and identify many heart conditions. Computer-assisted decision systems based on auscultation can support physicians in their decisions. Unfortunately, the…
Nodes in real-world networks organize into densely linked communities where edges appear with high concentration among the members of the community. Identifying such communities of nodes has proven to be a challenging task mainly due to a…
Organizations with a large user base, such as Samsung and Google, can potentially benefit from collecting and mining users' data. However, doing so raises privacy concerns, and risks accidental privacy breaches with serious consequences.…
