1. Pocket, Bag, Hand, etc. - Automatically Detecting Phone Context through Discovery Emiliano Miluzzoy, Michela Papandreax, Nicholas D. Laney, Hong Luy, Andrew T. Campbelly Presented by: Lulwah Alkwai

2. Introduction Discovery Framework Phone Sensing Context Design System Implementation Preliminary System Evaluation Conclusion

3. Introduction What is “phone sensing context”? The position of the phone carried by a person (e.g. in the pocket, hand, backpack, arm,...) in relation to the event being sensed. It is a fundamental building block for new distributed sensing application built on mobile phones. Observation has grown out of implementation of CenceMe and SoundSense.

4. CenceMe : CenceMe : Is a personal sensing system that enables members of social networks to share their sensing presence with their buddies in a secure manner. Is a personal sensing system that enables members of social networks to share their sensing presence with their buddies in a secure manner.

5. SoundSense : Top end mobile phones include a number of specialized (e.g., accelerometer, compass, GPS) and general purpose sensors (e.g., microphone, camera) that enable new people-centric sensing applications.

10. System Implementation Feature selection: 1st-19 th : Audio signal classification problems 20 th : Power of audio signal/raw audio data 21 st,22 nd : Mean and standard deviation 23 rd : # of times exceeds a certain points TrainingPredictions

11. (a) FFT power of an audio clip,when the phone inside the pocket (b) FFT power of an audio clip,when the phone outside the pocket (c) Count the number of times the FFT power exceeds the threshold

12. Preliminary System Evaluation The result highlight that the audio modality is effective in detecting the in/out of pocket context with reasonable accuracy.
