CRUISE RESEARCH GROUP

CRUISE (Context Recognition, Urban Sensing and Intelligence) research group, led by Dr. Salim, meets weekly to discuss research ideas and papers in A*/A journal and conferences in ubiquitous computing, data mining, spatio-temporal and time-series data analysis, knowledge discovery, machine learning, and pattern recognition from sensor data. Members include current PhD students and their co-supervisors, and postdocs. We share our codes and some sample datasets in our CRUISE GitHub repository.

Multi-resolution Situation Recognition for Urban-Aware Smart Assistant

This research aims to develop a framework to recognise and anticipate unforeseen emerging situations, such as schedule changes, incidents, and disruptions. The project will address a significant knowledge gap by capturing and modelling unpredictability in human mobility and work routines. The outcome will be a situation recognition framework that can be applied at the individual, social group, and urban level, and at multiple locations and time scales. This should provide users with timely notifications and recommendations to resume their activities and routines. The expected benefits will be far-ranging and adaptable to many domains, from personal smart assistants to trip planning and emergency services. - ARC Discovery Project DP190101485
