“Community Imaging” techniques:
Understanding people through their use of technology

Advanced evaluation techniques
• How to measure performance of – large numbers of people– from remote settings (e.g. online, distributed)– using large datasets
• We want to determine– What happened / what did people do?– What does it mean?– What does it tell us about people?
• “Community Imaging”– Understanding people through their use of technology.

Do phones create habbits?
We built an app and deployed to an appstore. The app collects data.

Online behaviour is a proxy
Can online behaviour be used as a proxy for studying urban mobility?

Each location has a pattern
![Page 18: “Community Imaging” techniques: Understanding people through … · 2016. 8. 24. · wilma kiiminki (student environment) 0.791 helmi (student management system) 0.781 wilma oulu](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071605/6140ecec83382e045471c320/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Google web searches also have a pattern

Things to evaluate
• Is a solution “good”? (BMW, Mercedes, Donkey)
• Is a criterion “good”? (Price, Safety, Swag)
• Is the decision-support system “good”?

Smart City research
• Brings together– Large numbers of people/users– Large volumes of data– Large number of disciplines
• Provides a natural– Metaphor for computation (4th wave of computing)– Application domain for interesting problems/solutions
