A Fair Reputation-Based Incentive Mechanism for Cooperative Crowd Sensing
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Crowd Sensing (CS) is a paradigm empowered by the pervasiveness of mobile smart devices, in which crowds of device owners cooperate to provide information about their surrounding environment. In this paper, we introduce ...
Bootstrap-Based Quality Metric for Scarce Sensing Systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper considers Mobile Crowd-Sensing (MCS) systems that suffer from scarce participant availability due to small sample sizes in each sensing cycle. With such small sample sizes, a sample in error would dramatically ...
Towards a Practical Crowdsensing System for Road Surface Conditions Monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
The Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure, systems, and applications demonstrate potential in serving smart city development. Crowdsensing approaches for road surface conditions monitoring can benefit smart city road ...
Efficient spectrum availability information recovery for wideband dsa networks: A weighted compressive sampling approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
There have recently been research efforts that leverage compressive sampling to enable wideband spectrum sensing recovery at sub-Nyquist rates. These efforts consider homogenous wideband spectrum, where all bands are assumed ...
Robust quality metric for scarce mobile crowd-sensing scenarios
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a novel quality of source metric for Mobile Crowd-Sensing systems (MCS), for systems with scarce participant availability due to small sample sizes in each sensing cycle. We introduce a controlled quality ...
Multi-tasking for cost-efficient mobile crowdsensing under uniformity constraints
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In a practical Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS) system, there usually exist multiple heterogeneous MCS tasks, each with a different set of requirements for completion. The coexistence of these MCS tasks presents a need to study ...
