With the ubiquitous use of location-based services, large-scale individual-level location data has been widely collected through location-awareness devices. The widespread exposure of such location data poses significant privacy risks to…

Localization is a key component of the wireless ecosystem. Machine learning (ML)-based localization using channel state information (CSI) is one of the most popular methods for achieving high-accuracy localization with low cost. However, to…

Location based services (LBS) are one of the most promising and innovative directions of convergence technologies resulting of emergence of several fields including database systems, mobile communication, Internet technology, and…

Imagine a map of your home with all of your connected devices (computers, TVs, voice control devices, printers, security cameras, etc.), in their location. You could then easily group devices into user-profiles, monitor Wi-Fi quality and…

We propose a new approach towards RSS (Received Signal Strength) based wireless localisation for scenarios where, instead of absolute positioning of an object, only the information whether an object is inside or outside of a specific area…

The prevalence of mobile devices and Location-Based Services (LBS) necessitate the study of Location Privacy-Preserving Mechanisms (LPPM). However, LPPMs reduce the utility of LBS due to the noise they add to users' locations. Here, we…

In pervasive computing environment, Location Based Services (LBSs) are getting popularity among users because of their usefulness in day-to-day life. LBSs are information services that use geospatial data of mobile device and smart phone…

While location data is extremely valuable for various applications, disclosing it prompts serious threats to individuals' privacy. To limit such concerns, organizations often provide analysts with aggregate time-series that indicate, e.g.,…

The proliferation of wireless localization technologies provides a promising future for serving human beings in indoor scenarios. Their applications include real-time tracking, activity recognition, health care, navigation, emergence…

The focus on privacy-related measures regarding wireless networks grew in last couple of years. This is especially important with technologies like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, which are all around us and our smartphones use them not just for…

Thanks to the ubiquitous deployment of Wi-Fi hotspots, channel state information (CSI)-based Wi-Fi sensing can unleash game-changing applications in many fields, such as healthcare, security, and entertainment. However, despite one decade…

In this paper, we present Wi-Mose, the first 3D moving human pose estimation system using commodity WiFi. Previous WiFi-based works have achieved 2D and 3D pose estimation. These solutions either capture poses from one perspective or…

Participatory sensing is emerging as an innovative computing paradigm that targets the ubiquity of always-connected mobile phones and their sensing capabilities. In this context, a multitude of pioneering applications increasingly carry out…

Tracking expensive goods and/or targeted individuals with high-tech devices has been of high interest for the last 30 years. More recently, other use cases such as parents tracking their children have become popular. One primary…

Applications providing location-based services (LBS) have gained much attention and importance with the notion of the internet of things (IoT). Users are utilizing LBS by providing their location information to third-party service…

The tremendous popularity gained by Online Social Networks (OSNs) raises natural concerns about user privacy in social media platforms. Though users in OSNs can tune their privacy by deliberately deciding what to share, the interaction with…

Social networking services are increasingly accessed through mobile devices. This trend has prompted services such as Facebook and Google+ to incorporate location as a de facto feature of user interaction. At the same time, services based…

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of a large number of spatially distributed devices equipped with sensing technology and interlinked via radio signaling. A WSN deployed for monitoring purposes can provide a ubiquitous view over…

Smart devices, such as light bulbs, TVs, fridges, etc., equipped with computing capabilities and wireless communication, are part of everyday life in many households. Previous work has already shown that a passive eavesdropper can derive…

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are rapidly emerging as an important new area in wireless and mobile computing research. Applications of WSNs are numerous and growing, and range from indoor deployment scenarios in the home and office to…
