Refining smartphone usage analysis by combining crowdsensing and survey

Vassili Rivron, Mohammad Irfan Khan, Simon Charneau, Isabelle Chrisment · 2015

Crowdsensing has been used quite regularly in recent years to study smartphone usage. However context information associated with smartphone usage is mostly of the type geo-localisation, user mobility, temporal behavior etc. Furthermore most studies are not sufficiently user-centric i.e. don't consider the perception or cognitive aspects of the user. In this paper we collect data about social context and user perception via in-app and on-line questionnaires and show that when these are combined with crowdsensed data can help improve both sensing and survey and can be applied to interesting cases.
