This $399,574 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to assess and mitigate spatial biases in large-scale mobile location data used for human mobility analysis. The University of Florida, the prime awardee, will undertake four key research tasks: 1) quantify spatial bias in mobile location data; 2) identify causes of spatial biases from the data generation process; 3) develop new methods...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) aims to revolutionize the understanding and prediction of human mobility patterns. The $300,000 award to Lehigh University, to be executed from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will support the development of privacy-preserving, federated neural networks to analyze large-scale, cross-domain human mobility data from sources like smartphones, payment...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $350,000 to develop a simulation infrastructure to model the dynamic flow of information through human social networks. The project aims to create an agent-based modeling tool that can predict how content spreads and is consumed within information ecosystems, incorporating factors such as network structures and agent characteristics. The simulation...
This $330,000 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049). The project will develop new AI-based techniques to detect anomalous behavior of individuals and groups based on their GPS location data. The investigators will create a temporal graph neural network (GNN) to characterize normal and abnormal location behavior patterns, and a dynamic graph anomaly detection (DGAD) approach to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $600,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA #47.070) program to the University of Utah Office of Sponsored Projects Division. The grant, awarded on June 15, 2023, will fund a project to build a foundational model for human mobility that can incorporate diverse types of movement, temporal, and socio-demographic data. The model will utilize machine learning techniques to generate outputs relevant to both...
This two-year, $217,923 National Science Foundation project grant funds collaborative research on human networks, sustainable development, and lived experience in a nonindustrial society. Led by researchers from multiple universities and tribal communities, the grantees will investigate relationships between spatial patterns of social interaction and quality of life over 800 years in the Southwestern United States. They will combine existing demographic, socioeconomic, health, and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF), Division of Mathematical Sciences, supports the development of data-driven, multimodal methods for behavior-based epidemiological modeling. With a total funding of $150,000 over the period of October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026, the project aims to address the challenges of behavior-based epidemiological modeling by establishing a unified modeling framework. Key products and services delivered under this grant include:...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program, provides $700,000 over 3 years to Northeastern University to develop mathematical models and computational algorithms that incorporate group-level behavioral responses into epidemic models. The research aims to better understand how social interactions, risk-mitigating norms, and the formation of pandemic "social bubbles" influence the trajectories of...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $300,000 will fund research at the University of California, Los Angeles to develop scalable Bayesian dimension reduction methods for analyzing massive, dynamic network data related to global viral epidemics. Specifically, the award will support extending Bayesian multidimensional scaling to enable analysis of network data involving millions of observations. Theoretical and methodological work will develop a sparse coupling model and efficient...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $330,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to develop an innovative "MobilityNet" cyberinfrastructure (CI) tool. This tool will leverage privacy-preserving generative machine learning to synthesize realistic, sanitized mobility data that can be shared with the science and engineering community to enable...
