Open Smartphone Data for Structured Mobility and Utilization Analysis in Ubiquitous Systems
The development and evaluation of new data mining methods for ubiquitous environments and systems requires real data that were collected from real users. In this work, we present an open smartphone utilization and mobility data set that was generated with several devices and participants during a 4-month study. A particularity of this data set is the inclusion of low-level operating system data. Additionally to the description of the data, we also describe the process of collection and the privacy measures we applied. To demonstrate the utility of the data, we evaluate the quality of generative spatio-temporal models for “apps” and network cells, since these are required as a building block in general predictions of the resource consumption of ubiquitous systems.
