@article{ref1, title="Environment monitoring for anomaly detection system using smartphones", journal="Sensors (Basel)", year="2019", author="Nguyen, Van Khang and Renault, Éric and Milocco, Ruben", volume="19", number="18", pages="s19183834-s19183834", abstract="Currently, the popularity of smartphones with networking capabilities equipped with various sensors and the low cost of the Internet have opened up great opportunities for the use of smartphones for sensing systems. One of the most popular applications is the monitoring and the detection of anomalies in the environment. In this article, we propose to enhance classic road anomaly detection methods using the Grubbs test on a sliding window to make it adaptive to the local characteristics of the road. This allows more precision in the detection of potholes and also building algorithms that consume less resources on smartphones and adapt better to real conditions by applying statistical outlier tests on current threshold-based anomaly detection methods. We also include a clustering algorithm and a mean shift-based algorithm to aggregate reported anomalies on data to the server. Experiments and simulations allow us to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
