Description:
With the advancement of information and communication technologies (ICT), location-aware technology, and mobile technology, data about human behaviors and interactions in physical, virtual, and network space has been generated at an unprecedented scale. The so-called big data bring in both opportunities and challenges for understanding, modeling, and predicting human dynamics. On one hand, the big data are collected from ubiquitous data sources (social media data, volunteered geographic information - VGI, sensor data, GPS tracks, transaction records, etc.); the data can cover aspects and scales of the human dynamics that are unseen from traditional data. On the other hand, revealing meaningful spatio-temporal patterns are challenging due to the high volume, velocity, and variety nature of the big data. Recent cutting-edge techniques such as data mining, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) open up new opportunities for unveiling the hidden spatio-temporal and network patterns of human dynamics in the big data. This session welcomes both methodological research on mining human dynamics with big data and human dynamics applications utilizing big data.
