With the rapid growth of online social media and ubiquitous Internet connectivity, social sensing has emerged as a new crowdsourcing application paradigm of collecting observations (often called claims) about the physical environment from humans or devices on their behalf. A fundamental problem in social sensing applications lies in effectively ascertaining the correctness of claims and the reliability...
Crowdsourcing has emerged as an important data collection paradigm in participatory and human-centric sensing applications. While many crowdsourcing studies focus on sensing and recovering the status of the physical world, this paper investigates the problem of profiling the crowd sensors (i.e., humans). In particular, we study the problem of accurately inferring the home locations of people from...
This paper develops a principled approach to accurately identify interesting places in a city through social sensing applications. Social sensing has emerged as a new application paradigm, where a crowd of social sources (humans or devices on their behalf) collectively contribute a large amount of observations about the physical world. This paper studies an interesting place finding problem, in which...
This paper presents an unsupervised approach toaccurately discover interesting places in a city from location-basedsocial sensing applications, a new sensing applicationparadigm that collects observations of physical world fromLocation-based Social Networks (LBSN). While there are alarge amount of prior works on personalized Point of Interests(POI) recommendation systems, they used supervised learningapproaches...
Social sensing has emerged as a new application paradigm for smart cities where a crowd of social sources (humans or devices on their behalf) collectively contribute a large amount of observations about the physical world. This paper focuses on an interesting place finding problem in social sensing where the goal is to accurately identify the interesting places in a city where people may have strong...
