- 43. Challenges • One of the main challenges is the lack of common engineering standards for data fusion systems. It has been one of the main impediments to integration and data fusion. • As different methods of data fusion behave differently in different applications, it is not trivial to choose the best method for a specific task. • Challenges during the data fusion design phase. At which level of abstraction, reduction and simplification the data should be fused ? • The lack of a unified framework that could orient the process of data fusion towards a “structured data fusion” vision.
- 44. Conclusions and future work • Information fusion as a an enabling process for novel applications - Future work oriented towards the “structured data fusion” idea • Privacy - Assesment of variations of existing privacy preserving techniques (D.P.)

- Introduzione ai metodi di data /information fusion. In particolare si parla di data o di information fusion a seconda che si tratti di una integrazione di basso o alto livello. I vari tipi di dati geo-referenziati e le diverse applicazioni che questi dati possono avere. Uno studio di rilevamento automatico di grandi eventi in aree urbane usando dati aggregati di telefonia mobile e dati social geo-referenziati. Dai dati aggregati si passa ai dati anonimizzati CDR che mostrano tracce di mobilità individuali. In questo lavoro si studiano diverse caratteristiche come l’unicità di queste tracce e di come questo può impattare la privacy. Alla fine, insieme alle conclusioni si presentano diversi punti aperti (sfide ancora aperte) da risolvere sia per quanto riguarda il campo di data fusion che quello sulla privacy preserving.
- La grande mole di dati generati durante la routine quotidiana come ad esempio I dati geo-referenziati come ad esempio i CDR (Call Description Records), i dati geo-referenziati che è possibile ottenere dai social network o (LBS come Foursquare) oppure gli open data come quelli del census. Dall’altra parte le applicazioni che derivano sono tante. Dal punto di vista dello sviluppo sociale si possono menzionare lavori che studiano i dati geo-referenziati a capire il meccanismo di diffusione delle malattie oppure i livelli di povertà nelle varie aree urbane, tutti studi che contribuiscono a orientare possibili interventi in questo senso. In un ambito smart city tali dati permettono di capire le varie dinamiche nelle grandi città come i commute patterns e land use tutte informazioni utili a capire e gestire al meglio una città. Anche se questi dati presi singolarmente sono utilissimi per le applicazioni menzionate prima, possono risultare molto più potenti se combinati o integrati in un’unica rappresentazione. Ad esempio anche se i CDR forniscono un indicazione su un grande raggruppamento di persone in una certa zona una volta combinati con i dati social possono rivelare anche il perché di un tale evento.
- Questo processo di combinazione e integrazione degli dati o data fusion punta ad analizzare i dati cosi che ciascun data set possa interagire, informare e completare gli altri data set. Record matching vs knowledge fusion.
- This is a category that uses different data sets that are in different stages of the process of data mining. Following this category, the data sets are loosely coupled without any requirements on their consistency. This method treats features extracted from different data sets and creates an array by concatenating them. This array can then be used in clustering and classification methods. 3. These methods take in consideration the relations between features in different data sets. This implies that the data miner knows what each data set represents, and why they can be fused or why they re-inforce each other in terms of enrichment of information.
- Data such as anonimyzed CDR or social network datasets
- By following the diagram in the first chapter we present the steps for applying the data – fusion methods.
- Milano Grid and time series of the activity levels of one of the cells during the two months period
- Big data challenge 2014 : aggregated CDR data and geo-tagged social network data tables .
- Faster computation as there are less entries
- The data used in the previous study were aggregated . It means that there were no personal data provided– they just provide the level of mobile phone activity in a certain geographic area identified by a square cell inside a grid . However there are many cases in which CDR data are released in a fine grained temporal and location scale, where personal anonymized data are provided. That means that individual mobility traces can be spotted and analyzed. In the same way geo-tagged social data form location based services such as Foursquare, or social networking services such as Twitter or Flickr can reveal location traces of their users.

That means that individual mobility traces can be spotted and analyzed. In the same way geo-tagged social data form location based services such as Foursquare, or social networking services such as Twitter or Flickr can reveal location traces of their users.
- Conclusions for this part : the uniqueness test shows the number of points needed for singleing out the mobility traces of 80-95 % of the overall users. A number of maximum 7 points is needed to do this. This number is not affected by the time intervall of the matchin process. The same can be sad for the percentage of the users paths singled out.
- Having discovered the number of points sufficient to single out a CDR user we proceed in matching the CRD users with the social ones . In the graphics a simple matching process between CDR and social data. While the C4 and C3 can be excluded due to their producing data in different locations in the same moment, nothing can be sad for C2 and C1. That’s why we use a probabilistic approach that could tell us (within a reasonably limit if a CDR user is the same social user with wich the events are matching )
- Conclusions for this part : the matching test shows the number of cdr users with which the social users match for a given number of points. That means that every social user has at least one point in common with (on average) 1000 CDR users. It has two points in common (on average) with 100 CDR users, it has 13 points in common with (on average) 50 CDR users. Analogously the percentage of CDR users with which the social users have 1, 2, 3…15 points in common decreases.
