Data from Smartphones and Wearables
This special issue belongs to the section "Information Systems and Data Management".
Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
The emerging market of wearables is growing due to the presence of the state-of-the-art devices in our lives. Wristbands that track our sport activity, smartwatches with localization capabilities, and eHealth devices that monitor our vital constants are becoming more common in the 21st century life. The ecosystem of interconnected wearables is a source of crowdsourced information that enables advanced big data analysis and the application of deep learning models.
This Special Issue is devoted but not limited to data sets including any raw data collected by wearable devices and smartphones, as well as processing of such kind of data for wireless communications, tracking, indoor and outdoor positioning, eHealth monitoring, sport analysis, and gesture recognition, among others.
