Human social sensing is an untapped resource for computational social science
The ability to ‘sense’ the social environment and thereby to understand the thoughts and actions of others allows humans to fit into their social worlds, communicate and cooperate, and learn from others’ experiences.

Seasonality in Human Interest in Berry Plants Detection by Google Trends
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,

Passive social sensing with smartphones: a systematic review
Smartphones are widely used hubs of personal communication. With their many sensors, they are capable of monitoring social behaviours. Calls, messages, application usage and even face-to-face conversations can be captured by smartphones.

Predictability and Fairness in Social Sensing [PDF]
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.

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]
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.

Usefulness of Social Sensing Using Text Mining of Tweets for Detection of Autumn Phenology
Can social sensing detect the spatio-temporal variability of autumn phenology? We analyzed data published on the Twitter social media website through the text mining of non-geotagged tweets regarding a forested, mountainous region in Japan.
