PhD title
Scalable Bayesian Analysis of Urban Observatory Data
Research area
The Urban Observatory is a sensor network in Newcastle upon Tyne. It records environmental data such as:
- temperature
- NO
- CO
- sound
- humidity
- traffic
The data can be difficult to use as:
- the volume of data is very large
- sensor data quality can vary
- information is only available where sensors are deployed
My research focuses on statistical modelling of this sensor data to learn about the environment when:
- sensors are not deployed
- sensors have temporary outages due to network glitches
We aim to understand the true value of the process the sensor is measuring.
