(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Shopping is driven by needs (to eat, to socialize, to work), but it is also a driver of where we go. I examine the transaction records of 80 million customers and find that while our economic choices predict mobility ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)The purpose of this thesis is to present the design and evaluation of a new type of socially assistive robot, one that can interact with people and collect various types of sensory input while being small enough to hold ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Inexpensive storage and sensor technologies are yielding a new generation of massive multimedia datasets. The exponential growth in storage and processing power makes it possible to collect more data than ever before, yet ...
