Abstract
In these days, recognizing a user personality is an important issue in order to support various personalized services. Besides the conventional phone usage such as call logs, SMS logs and application usages, smart phones can gather the behavior of users by polling various embedded sensors such as GPS sensors. In this paper, we focus on how to predict user attitude based on GPS log data by applying location clustering techniques and extracting features from the location clusters. Through the evaluation with one month-long GPS log data, it is observed that the location-based features, such as number of clusters and coverage of clusters, are correlated with user attitude to some extent. Especially, when SVM is used as a classifier for predicting the dichotomy of user attitudes of MBTI, over 90% F-measure is achieved.
