Meanwhile, we are witnessing an increasing amount of electric vehicles, which soon will represent a substantial fraction of the electricity demand. Under this setting, the so-called vehicle-to-grid technology, which enables electric vehicles to sell electricity back to the power grid, appears to be an effective mean to reduce the charging costs for electric vehicles. We demonstrate a system that makes optimal scheduling for electric vehicle fleet owners using vehicle-to-grid. The principle of the scheduling is to charge electric vehicles when electricity is cheap and sell electricity back to the power grid when it is expensive, while making sure that the electric vehicles are sufficiently charged when they need to be used, e.g., 8 am in the morning. The system is integrated as part of aSTEP, a spatio-temporal data analytics platform developed at Aalborg University. In collaboration with a transportation-as-a-service company in Denmark, the system is tested through a use case that involves an electric vehicle fleet.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115233144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measuring influence can benefit to identify the influential users, and also benefit to provide important insights into the design of social platforms and applications. However, most existing work on social influence analysis has focused on homogeneous information networks. Few studies systematically investigate how to mine the strength of influence between nodes in heterogeneous information networks. In this paper, we present a meta path-based information entropy for modeling social influence in heterogeneous information networks (MPIE). Through setting meta paths, MPIE not only flexibly integrates heterogeneous information, but also obtains potential link information to measure the influence of nodes. Experiments on real data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"479 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116027768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous works often calculated only the average congestion levels of a large region covering many road segments and did not take into account spatial correlation between road segments, resulting in inaccurate and coarse-grained prediction. To overcome these issues, we propose in this paper CPM-ConvLSTM, a spatiotemporal model for short-term prediction of congestion level in each road segment. Our model is built on a spatial matrix which incorporates both the congestion propagation pattern and the spatial correlation between road segments. The preliminary experiments on the traffic data set collected from Helsinki, Finland prove that CPM-ConvLSTM greatly outperforms 6 counterparts in terms of prediction accuracy.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"150 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125619407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To enhance the driving safety at traffic lights, in this paper, we propose an intelligent safe driving assistant to provide drivers with driving advice based on traffic light phases, which information has been neglected by existing research. The driving assistant consists of an image recognition system with a single on-board camera, which can ameliorate the difficulties of observing traffic light phases. The recognition system obtains traffic light countdown information using a Convolutional Neural Network, and estimates the countdown time using the results of traffic light information. In addition, we develop a model to calculate the distance between the traffic light and vehicle by using the information of camera and traffic light. Based on the traffic light phase and the distance obtained, the driving assistant can provide a velocity control strategy to improve driver's safety. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123037483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The potential network structure of highly related diseases could be revealed and found by several approaches with the concept of disease network, such as Weighted Alternating Least Squares (WALS). The 2012 medical history of the Health Examination for the Elderly of Taipei City was used for this study. Based on traditional correlation analysis, the results show that physical and mental diseases/disorders have some special comorbid structure. Moreover, the correlations had some potential clusters with significant between-cluster separation. However, while we used WALS approach to explore the hidden structure of disease networks, the complex and unexpected disease networks of the aging population were revealed according to subjects' medical history. The hidden structure could be identified and further used for WALS calculating via matching controls who had no the specific disease to cases who carried it by other disease diagnosis. Our findings showed the predictive accuracy with 0.83 for the diagnostic model. It indicated the importance of hidden factors being used for further calculating the disease correlations of multisystem disorders.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130833208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traffic jams increase the transportation costs for goods and humans. They are also amongst the leading factors for pollution in the atmosphere and consequently increase health risks for the population. One way to reduce the amount of emissions produced by vehicles in traffic jams is to mitigate traffic congestion and promote the usage of public transportation. In this paper, we propose a solution that establishes on-demand, virtual bus lanes to prioritize public transportation over other traffic and provide detour guidelines for other drivers, while causing insignificant detour penalties. Our solution leverages incremental window aggregations to identify the busiest road segments, priority scheduling, and Dijkstra shortest path algorithm to shape and detour traffic. Our experimental evaluation shows the effectiveness of our Environment Protective Traffic Orchestration (EPTrOn) algorithm in identifying and alleviating traffic congestions.","PeriodicalId":241426,"journal":{"name":"2019 20th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116451617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
