Message Text Keynotes Mixed Signals: Audio and wearable data for health diagnostics Cecilia Mascolo Professor of Mobile System at University of Cambridge Co-director for the Centre for Mobile, Wearable Systems and Augmented Intelligence Considerable research has been conducted into mobile and wearable systems for human health monitoring. This research concentrates on either devising sensing and systems techniques to effectively and efficiently collect data about users, and patients or in studying mechanisms to analyse the data coming from these systems accurately. In both cases, these efforts raise important technical as well as ethical issues. In this talk, I plan to reflect on the challenges and opportunities that mobile and wearable health systems are introducing for community, the developers as well as the users. I will use examples from my group's ongoing research on exploring machine learning and data analysis for health application in collaboration with epidemiologists and clinicians. In particular I will discuss our project on using audio signals for disease diagnostics and our recent work in the context of COVID-19.

She has delivered a number of keynote talks at conferences and workshops in the area of mobility, data science, pervasive computing and systems. xxi Collaborative IoT Machine Intelligence: Tackling the Crisis of Ubiquitous Power Archan Misra Professor at School of Information Systems, Singapore Management University Smart computing applications often assume a pervasive sensing substrate, incorporating both personal and wearable devices and infrastructurally mounted devices (such as radar & vision sensors). Assuring ubiquitous availability of power to such pervasive platforms remains the most serious resource bottleneck and requires advances on both the supply side (new forms of energy harvesting) and the demand side (new forms of ultra-low power sensing & analytics). Through this talk, I shall describe the vision of collaborative machine intelligence (CMI), where the sensing and inferencing pipelines on individual wearable and IoT devices collaborate, in real-time, and illustrate how CMI helps tackle this power challenge. First, I will describe work on advances in battery-less, or low-power sensing, enabled by such collaboration. Second, using an exemplar video surveillance application, I will describe how IoT- based CMI can provide dramatic reductions in energy, as well as improvements in accuracy. I shall conclude by arguing why these techniques require the emergence of a “Cognitive & Collaborative Edge”, that evolves from its focus on mere computation offloading to a platform for enabling such collaborative and trusted sense-making. Biography Archan Misra is Professor of Computer Science, and Vice Provost (Research), at Singapore Management University (SMU). He is the Director of SMU’s Center for Applied Smart-Nation Analytics (CASA), which is developing pervasive technologies for smart city infrastructure and applications. Archan has led a number of multi-million dollar, large-scale research initiatives at SMU, including the LiveLabs research center, and is a current recipient of the prestigious Investigator grant (from Singapore’s National Research Foundation) for sustainable man-machine interaction intelligence. Over a 20+ year research career spanning both academics and industry (at IBM Research and Bellcore), Archan has published on, and practically deployed, technologies spanning wireless networking, mobile & wearable sensing and urban mobility analytics. His current research interests lie in ultra-low energy execution of machine intelligence algorithms using wearable and IoT devices. Archan holds a Ph.D. from the University of Maryland at College Park, and chaired the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Computer Communications (TCCC) from 2005-2007. xxii.

Multimodal Sensing for Robust and Energy-Efficient Context Detection with Smart Mobile Devices Valentin Radu Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Computing Systems Architecture School of Informatics University of Edinburgh 2017 Abstract Adoption of smart mobile devices (smartphones, wearables, etc.) is rapidly grow- ing. There are already over 2 billion smartphone users worldwide [1] and the per- centage of smartphone users is expected to be over 50% in the next five years [2]. These devices feature rich sensing capabilities which allow inferences about mobile device user’s surroundings and behavior. Multiple and diverse sensors common on such mobile devices facilitate observing the environment from different perspectives, which helps to increase robustness of inferences and enables more complex context detection tasks. Though a larger number of sensing modalities can be beneficial for more accurate and wider mobile context detection, integrating these sensor streams is non-trivial.

  • Principles for Designing Context-Aware Applications for Physical Activity Promotion
    Principles for Designing Context-Aware Applications for Physical Activity Promotion by Gaurav Paruthi A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Information) in the University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Mark W. Newman, Chair Associate Professor Natalie Colabianchi Assistant Professor Predrag 'Pedja' Klasnja Professor Ken Resnicow Gaurav Paruthi [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-5100-1578 © Gaurav Paruthi 2018 Acknowledgement I owe the most thanks to my supervisor Mark Newman for his unconditional support and guidance during my Ph.D. I most enjoyed the freedom given to me to pursue multiple intellectual streams. At times, I wasn’t sure how things would converge, but Mark’s confidence in me allowed me to keep pursuing the things that interest me the most. From choosing research projects to exploring startup opportunities, I was fortunate to have an advisor who encouraged and supported me in my endeavors. This freedom allowed me to explore three state of the art technologies- crowdsourcing, machine learning, and hardware prototyping that I was deeply excited about and then successfully explored through the projects described in this dissertation. I want to thank my dissertation committee members: Pedja Klasnja, Natalie Colabianchi, and Ken Resnicow. Their support and feedback helped me to focus and take the individual projects to completion. I would also like to note that I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to explore the area of Health behavior without Pedja’s support. I was always motivated by his excitement and vision of how research and design can have a significant impact in improving the health behavior of people.

  • Spatial Properties of Online Social Services: Measurement, Analysis and Applications
    Spatial properties of online social services: measurement, analysis and applications Salvatore Scellato Churchill College University of Cambridge 2012 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. This dissertation does not exceed the regulation length of 60 000 words, including tables and footnotes. Spatial properties of online social services: measurement, analysis and applications Salvatore Scellato Summary Online social networking services entice millions of users to spend hours every day interacting with each other. At the same time, thanks to the widespread and growing popularity of mobile devices equipped with location-sensing technology, users are now increasingly sharing details about their geographic location and about the places they visit. This adds a crucial spatial and geographic dimension to online social services, bridging the gap between the online world and physical presence. These observations motivate the work in this dissertation: our thesis is that the spatial properties of online social networking services offer important insights about users' social behaviour. This thesis is supported by a set of results related to the measurement and the analysis of such spatial properties. First, we present a comparative study of three online social services: we find that geographic distance constrains social connections, although users exhibit heteroge- neous spatial properties. Furthermore, we demonstrate that by considering only social or only spatial factors it is not possible to reproduce the observed properties. Therefore, we investigate how these factors are jointly influencing the evolution of online social services.
