Event detection in urban context by using aggregated mobile activity as for example CDR data and social network data in this case geo-referenced Twitter data. The experiments show that the two datasets - CDR and social data - used, complement each other by providing better event detection results and event detscription.
2. INTRODUCTION TO DATA FUSION METHODS
• Stage based methods.
• Feature level-based.
• Semantic meaning-based data fusion methods
3. LOCATION DATA FUSION : SIDE EFFECT
• Data fusion enables a huge number of applications
• Privacy risks for individual data
4. DATA FUSION FOR EVENT DETECTION /
DESCRIPTION BY USING AGGREGATED CDR DATA
AND GEO-TAGGED SOCIAL NETWORK DATA

16. IMPROVING EVENT DETECTION RESULTS BY DATA
FUSION
By combining the results from
the two datasets
• Improvement of precision – recall
performance of the method
• The improvement is limited in the
long run by the main dataset.
• The same improvement can be
observed also by joining the results
of the other datasets.
17. DATA FUSION FOR EVENT DESCRIPTION
By using the CDR the events
can be detected but not
described:
• By joining the results the data
can complement and enrich
each other.
• In this case the social dataset
can be used to describe
semantically the events
18. CONFRONTING THE RESULTS WITH OTHER WORKS ON
EVENT DETECTION
• Two other similar works
• Using much more sophisticated algorithms
• Comparable results
19. 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.
20. 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.)

Notes de l'éditeur
This process integrates knowledge not just data.
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.
