Seasonality in Human Interest in Berry Plants Detection by Google Trends

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
The phenology of berry-producing plants, particularly their harvest season, is of human interest and also reflects the ecosystem’s response to the changing environment. We investigated the seasonal dynamics of human interest in berries growing in boreal,

Predictability and Fairness in Social Sensing [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Internet of Things Journal, 2022
We consider the design of distributed algorithms that govern the manner in which agents contribute to a social sensing platform. Specifically, we are interested in situations where fairness among the agents contributing to the platform is needed. A notable example are platforms operated by public bodies, where fairness is a legal requirement.

Social sensing [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 19th ACM SIGSOFT symposium and the 13th European conference on Foundations of software engineering, 2011
Adaptation requires a system to monitor its operational context to ensure that when changes occur, a suitable adaptation action is planned and taken at runtime. The ultimate goal of adaptation is that users get their dynamic requirements met efficiently and correctly.

Sensing Social Behavior With Smart Trousers [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Pervasive Computing, 2021
Nonverbal signals play an important role in social interaction. Body orientation, posture, hand, and leg movements all contribute to successful communication, though research has typically focused on cues transmitted from the torso alone. Here, we explore lower body movements and address two issues.
