BIOGRAPHIES
candidate at Dartmouth College, and a member of the
Mobile Sensing Group and the MetroSense project. His
research interests revolve around mobile sensing systems
that incorporate scalable and robust sensor-based compu-
tational models of human behavior and context. He has an
M.Eng. in computer science from Cornell University.
E
candidate in the computer science department at Dartmouth
College and a member of the Mobile Sensing Group at Dart-
mouth. His research focus is on spearheading a new area of
research on mobile phone sensing applying machine learn-
ing and mobile systems design to new sening applications
and systems on a large scale. These applications and systems
span the areas of social networks, green applications, global
environment monitoring, personal and community health-
care, sensor augmented gaming, virtual reality, and smart
transportation systems. He has an M.Sc. in electrical engi-
neering from the University of Rome La Sapienza.
H
the computer science department at Dartmouth College,
and a member of the Mobile Sensing Group and the Met-
roSense Project.. His research interests include ubiquitous
computing, mobile sensing systems, and human behavior
modeling. He has an M.S. in computer science from Tianjin
University, China.
D
dent at Dartmouth College. His research interests are in devel-
oping machine learning methods for analyzing and interpreting
people’s contexts, activities, and social networks from mobile
sensor data. He has a B.S. from Dartmouth College.
T
an assistant professor in the computer science departmentat
Dartmouth College. She joined Dartmouth in 2008 after four
years at Intel Research Seattle. She recieved her Ph.D. from
the Media Laboratory at MIT. She develops systems that can
reason about human activities, interactions, and social net-
works in everyday environments. Her doctoral thesis demon-
strated for the first time the feasibility of using wearable
sensors to capture and model social networks automatically,
on the basis of face-to-face conversations. MIT Technology
Review recognized her as one of the world’s top 35 innova-
tors under the age of 35 (2008 TR35) for her work in this
area. She has also been selected as a TED Fellow and is a
recipient of the NSF CAREER award. More information can
be found at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~tanzeem.
A
fessor of computer science at Dartmouth College, where he
leads the Mobile Sensing Group and the MetroSense Pro-
ject. His research interests include mobile phone sensing
systems. He has a Ph.D. in computer science from Lancast-
er University, England. He received the U.S. National Sci-
ence Foundation Career Award for his research in
programmable mobile networking.
The primary obstacle
to this new field is
not a lack of infra-
structure. Rather, the
technical barriers are
related to perform-
ing privacy-sensitive
and resource-sensi-
tive reasoning with
noisy data and noisy
labels and providing
useful and effective
feedback to users.
