Patent number: 11418915Abstract: Machine learning techniques may be applied to determining a mode of transportation for a trajectory of a sequence of user locations. The mode of transportation, such as walking, bicycling, riding in a car or bus, riding in a train, or other mode, may be determined by creating a training set of data, then using classification mechanisms to classify trajectories by mode of transport. The training set may be generated by tracking then verifying a user's transportation mode. In some cases, a user may manually input or verify their transportation mode, while in other cases, a user's transportation mode may be determined through other data sources.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2017Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: Dataspark, Pte.

Patent number: 11170027Abstract: A dataset's uniqueness level may be calculated by analyzing a dataset to determine a uniqueness level. In cases where the uniqueness level may be too low for a particular purpose, meaning when the dataset may not provide enough anonymity, the dataset may be adjusted by recomputing the dataset with different resolutions of spatial data, temporal data, content data, and relationship data. By adjusting the resolution or accuracy of the data elements, the uniqueness level may thereby be adjusted. An error calculation may be determined by comparing the adjusted dataset to the original data, and the error value may represent the consistency of the data to the original data. The uniqueness level may be used as an assurance level of anonymity, which may be advertised when a dataset is sold or transferred to a third party for analysis.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: DataSpark, Pte LtdInventors: The Anh Dang, Amy Xuemei Shi-Nash

Publication number: 20210225050Abstract: Daily activities of mobile data may be represented as and processed as an image consisting of days of the week versus time of day. The images may be rapidly processed from raw data, but also may be readily analyzed using image processing techniques. The daily activities may be a composite of several images, each of which may represent observations for a particular dimension. The dimension may represent a type of activity, a physical location, a labeled location, or some other aspect. The image having time of day versus day of week may show relationships or patterns that may occur from one day to the next, which may otherwise be difficult to detect.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2018Publication date: July 22, 2021Inventors: Ying LI, The Anh DANG

Publication number: 20210172759Abstract: A trajectory may be derived from noisy location data by mapping candidate locations for a user, then finding a match between successive locations. Location data may come from various sources, including telecommunications networks. Telecommunications networks may give location data based on observations of users in a network, and such data may have many inaccuracies. The observations may be mapped to physical constraints, such as roads, pathways, train lines, and the like, as well as applying physical rules such as speed analysis to smooth the data and identify outlier data points. A trajectory may be resampled or interpolated to generate a detailed set of trajectory points from a sparse and otherwise ambiguous dataset.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2017Publication date: June 10, 2021Inventors: Ying LI, The Anh DANG, Shixin LUO

Patent number: 10996310Abstract: A user's location may be estimated by applying a probability function to raw user location data taken from various telephony or wireless systems. The probability function may estimate a user's location based on a training dataset that may be generated a priori to the analysis. A training dataset may be generated or updated by analyzing queries made with global positioning system (GPS) data to extract a device's GPS location. The probability function may be generated in part from physical maps. The estimated location may improve location accuracy, especially when attempting to map a user's location with accuracies that may be much smaller than a cell of a cellular telephony system.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2016Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: DataSpark, Pte., Ltd.Inventors: Yibin Ng, Yunye Jin, Jingxuan Wang, The Anh Dang, Ying Li

Publication number: 20210097699Abstract: Daily activities of mobile data may be processed as images. The image processing techniques may include classifying, pattern matching, and other automated analyses. Even when the images contain such highly condensed and summarized versions of the underlying raw data, very meaningful classification, pattern matching, and other analyses may be performed quickly and efficiently. Some analysis techniques may involve processing mobility data into individual dimensions, then prioritizing the dimensions based on activity observations. Other analysis techniques may involve processing mobility data into predefined dimensions.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2020Publication date: April 1, 2021Inventors: Ying LI, The Anh DANG

Patent number: 10945096Abstract: Mobility observations may be analyzed to create so-called mobility genes, which may be intermediate data forms from which various analyses may be performed. The mobility genes may include a trajectory gene, which may describe a trajectory through which a user may have travelled. The trajectory gene may be analyzed from raw location observations and processed into a form that may be more easily managed. The trajectory genes may be made available to third parties for analysis, and may represent a large number of location observations that may have been condensed, smoothed, and anonymized. By analyzing only trajectories, a third party may forego having to analyze huge numbers of individual observations, and may have valuable data from which to make decisions.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2017Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: DataSpark, Pte. Ltd.Inventors: Ying Li, The Anh Dang
