abstract = {Distracted riding behavior is one of the main causes of bicycle-related traffic accidents, resulting in a large number of casualties and economic losses every year. There is an urgent need to address this problem by accurately detecting distracted riding behaviors. Inspired by the observation that distracted riding behaviors induce unique head motion features that respond to the rider's attention, we present the HeadSense, a helmet-based system that not only monitors the visual search episode of the rider but also detects distracted riding behaviors. Specifically, HeadSense leverages the inertial motion unit (IMU) to recognize distracted behaviors such as using smartphones, attracting to the roadside element, and abreast riding. We designed, implemented, and evaluated HeadSense through extensive experiments. We conducted experiments with 19 participants inside the university's campus. The experimental results show that HeadSense can achieve an overall accuracy of 86.14% while monitoring visual search episodes. Moreover, HeadSense can detect the occurrence of distracted riding behaviors with an average precision of up to 85.04%.},

abstract = {When customers wait their turn to place an order at a street vendor, they often form a spontaneous queue. Due to the presence of passers-by and people standing outside the queue, it is more difficult than one might think to distinguish between those in the queue and those not in the queue. In this paper, we consider a method that uses acoustic ranging to autonomously detect who is in line and in which order, under the condition that all customers have smartphones. The proposed method is unique in that it can distinguish whether a newly arrived user has joined the end of the queue or not by taking cues from the geometric properties of the queue. Our preparatory queueing simulations confirm that 92.5% of the queuers are estimated correctly.},

Although each organization has operated a variety of safety-related systems, including contact tracing, congestion monitoring, and check-in services, it is unclear what elements, such as privacy protection level, benefits, and permission procedures, have promoted the usage of these systems. In this study, we created MOCHA, a platform for sharing and tracking room-level locations. This platform automatically detects visited places by scanning Bluetooth beacons in each room using smartphones and shares location data according to predefined user settings. The collected data is used for room-level contact tracing, congestion monitoring, and reservation services. According to >6,500 users' usage data for a year in a university, outlining the advantages of utilizing the app encouraged people to install the app, and reinforced connections in small private groups are encouraged to use the app continuously.},

abstract = {Riding bikes with only one hand on the handlebar can severely undermine the steering capability of riders and risk road safety. In this study, we propose a first detection framework for monitoring single-hand cycling on bicycle travel, called DoubleCheck. It is based on the premise that riders adapt their body movement during single-hand cycling, which is distinguishable to the sensors even amid noise from the exasperate road surface. The system can detect handlebar-holding under different road conditions using motion signals from a built-in inertial measurement unit (IMU) in a handlebar-mounted smartphone. We implemented the system and invited 10 participants for our evaluation experiment. Our results show that DoubleCheck achieved an F1-score of 0.94 for hand detection, proving its efficacy for real-life implementation to improve road safety.},

abstract = {While micro-mobility brings convenience to the modern city, they also cause various social problems such as traffic accidents, casualties, and huge economic losses. Wearing protective equipment has become the primary recommendation for safe riding, but passive protection cannot prevent accidents from happening after all. Thus, timely predicting the rider's maneuver is essential for more active protection and buying more time to avoid potential accidents from happening. In this poster, we explore the feasibility of using riders' head dynamics to predict their riding maneuvers. Through ten participants' preliminary study, we observed that not only do riders' head movements appear ahead of their maneuvers but also head movement patterns are distinct with different maneuver intentions. We then construct a deep learning network using Long Short Term Memory, achieving 89% of accuracy on maneuver prediction.},

abstract = {Under the circumstance of the rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, enhancing human’s awareness of self-protection is one practical method to slow down the epidemic. In this study, we utilize mobile sensing to track human activity and guide human’s epidemic prevention behavior by gamified feedback techniques by our developed application. Virtually, human’s self-protection awareness is affected by many factors and the measures to enhance people’s self-protection behavior against the epidemic COVID-19 has always been an unresolved issue. In order to search for factors that influence human’s self-protection behavior, we analyzed the relationships between various human activities and the percentage complete of human’s self-protection behavior and we have extracted some more general conclusions from the results. Based on our data analysis results, we also made some proposals to enhance self-protection behavior. Meanwhile, our study illustrates the effectiveness of the method that analyzes human self-protection behavior through mobile sensing. Our study also validates the effectiveness of persuasive technology on human’s self-protection behavior against the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore we advocate enhancing human’s self-protection awareness through external intervention and guidance by smart device.},

abstract = {Owing to lifestyle changes, urbanization, and the COVID-19 pandemic, many people spend more time indoors and tend to receive less direct sunlight than before. Although excessive or inadequate ultraviolet (UV) exposure can be harmful to our physical and mental health, moderate UV exposure is essential for vitamin D (VD) production in the body. In this study, we estimate the UV exposure using an off-the-shelf smartphone, and explore the relationship between the UV values and GPS signal strength (C/N0). The results demonstrate that a strong correlation (R 2 = 0.73) between the UV values and carrier to noise density (C/N0) even if the smartphone and UV sensor are moved. Therefore, it is possible to estimate the UV exposure to some extent from a person's location, even while carrying a smartphone.},

Self-protection, such as washing hands, wearing a mask, and staying home, are simple and practical solutions to safeguard against these diseases. Most governments and health departments recommend that people maintain self-protection. Although continuous self-protection effectively prevents the spread of infection, only the intent to self-protect is unsustainable in the long term. In this study, we design, develop, and deploy an application to track users' daily activities semi-automatically and enhance self-protection behavior using mobile sensing and gamified feedback techniques.

abstract = {Due to recent urbanization and changing lifestyles, many people have been spending more time indoors. Hence, they tend to receive less direct sunlight than ever before. Although excessive/inadequate UV exposure can be harmful to human health leading to illnesses such as skin cancer, spots, or depression, moderate UV exposure is necessary for vitamin D production in the body. Therefore, estimating UV exposure with a commonly used device is useful for maintaining a healthy lifestyle from excessive/inadequate UV exposure in our daily life. In this study, we aim to estimate UV exposure, and to this end, we used the GPS signal strength (C/No) collected from an off-the-shelf smartphone for exploring the relationship between UV values and C/No. We conducted an experiment and measured UV values and C/No from 10 places in two different situations. From the results, we observed a significant correlation (R2 more than 0.87) between UV values and C/No when all the data were divided by the sun/shade condition. This result supports the fact that UV values potentially can be inferred from C/No to some degree if the sun/shade condition can be detected.},
