Data Mining for Personal Navigation Gurushyam Hariharan Pasi Fränti Sandeep Mehta DYNAMAP PROJECT University of Joensuu, FINLAND http://cs.joensuu.fi/pages/franti/dynamap/
Personal Navigation Location information is used for: • Plotting location of user on a map • Navigational guidance to given destination • Provide data related to location
Data mining required • For retrieval of location-related information from www (Web mining) • For Task-oriented data extraction from web documents • For user profiling (additional parameters for defining what is relevant)
Traditional definition of relevance • Keyword • Web-Based Search Engines • User Profile • Past Behavior of self and community define the profile • Automatic suggestions (e.g. Amazon.com proposed other “relevant” books)
Novel Approach to Data(Web)-Mining for a MOBILE USER • Key is to find RELEVANT information • Re-defining Relevance for Mining Web • Relevance depends on • User request at the moment • User preferences • Relevance = Traditional Parameters (Keywords, Profile) + LOCATION
Additional relevance factor: Location • Co-ordinates of mobile User City/Street address • Relevance=Location + Keywords (+Profile) • For example: • Helsinki downtown • “Restaurant” • “Budget prize” “Vegetarian”
Issues for a Personal Navigation System with the NEW Definition • Spot the client on the Globe • Co-ordinate Location interconvertion • Data Extraction: Task oriented search of web • Scalability (in accordance with User’s Mobile Device) • User profile learning • Pass Relevant Information to the Mobile User
WE REGRET... ... the absence of the authors. • Gurushyam did not get VISA to USA • Pasi is busy elsewhere and could not change his plans in such short notice:
