Abstract

This paper investigates the prediction of two aspects of human behavior us- ing smartphones as sensing devices. We present a framework for predicting where users will go and which app they will use in the next ten minutes by ex- ploiting the rich contextual information from smartphone sensors. Our first goal is to understand which smartphone sensor data types are important for the two prediction tasks. Secondly, we aim at extracting generic (i.e., user- independent) behavioral patterns and study how generic behavior models can improve the predictive performance of personalized models. Experimen- tal validation was conducted on the Lausanne Data Collection Campaign (LDCC) dataset, with longitudinal smartphone data collected over a period of 17 months from 71 users.

Smartphone

A smartphone is a portable computer device that combines mobile telephone functions and computing functions into one unit. They are distinguished from older-design feature phones by their more advanced hardware capabilities and extensive mobile operating systems, which facilitate wider software, access to the internet (including web browsing over mobile broadband), and multimedia functionality (including music, video, cameras, and gaming), alongside core phone functions such as voice calls and text messaging.

Modular smartphone

A modular smartphone is a smartphone designed for users to upgrade or replace components and modules without the need for resoldering or repair services. The most important component is the main board, to which others such as cameras and batteries are attached. Components can be obtained from open-source hardware stores. This design aims to reduce electronic waste, increase the phone's lifespan, and lower repair costs. However, modular smartphones are generally bulkier and slower than their non-modular counterparts which may make them less attractive for most consumers.

User interface

In the industrial design field of human–computer interaction, a user interface (UI) is the space where interactions between humans and machines occur. The goal of this interaction is to allow effective operation and control of the machine from the human end, while the machine simultaneously feeds back information that aids the operators' decision-making process. Examples of this broad concept of user interfaces include the interactive aspects of computer operating systems, hand tools, heavy machinery operator controls and process controls.
