On the use of smartphone sensors for developing advanced driver assistance systems
Technological evolution impacts several industries, including automotive. The combination of software with advancements in sensory capabilities results in new Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). The pervasiveness of smartphones and their sensory capabilities makes them an solid platform for the development of ADAS. Our work is motivated by concerns on the reliability of data acquired from such devices for developing ADAS. We performed a number of controlled experiments to understand which factors impact the collection of accelerometer data with smartphones. We conclude that the quality of data acquired is not significantly affected by using different smartphones, car mounts, rates of sampling, or vehicles for the purpose of developing ADAS. Our results indicate that smartphone sensors can be used to develop ADAS.Research sponsored by the Portugal Incentive System for Research and TechnologicalDevelopment.

PU-shapelets : Towards pattern-based positive unlabeled classification of time series
Real-world time series classification applications often involve positive unlabeled (PU) training data, where there are only a small set PL of positive labeled examples and a large set U of unlabeled ones. Most existing time series PU classification methods utilize all readings in the time series, making them sensitive to non-characteristic readings. Characteristic patterns named shapelets present a promising solution to this problem, yet discovering shapelets under PU settings is not easy. In this paper, we take on the challenging task of shapelet discovery with PU data. We propose a novel pattern ensemble technique utilizing both characteristic and non-characteristic patterns to rank U examples by their possibilities of being positive. We also present a novel stopping criterion to estimate the number of positive examples in U. These enable us to effectively label all U training examples and conduct supervised shapelet discovery. The shapelets are then used to build a one-nearest-neighbor classifier for online classification. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics
