Long description

Main driver for the research being carried out is the smart use of data enriched models to help in doing better at company level but at societal level as well.

Different fields of application are under active development, like:

Air pollution impact and forecasting,

Sentimental analysis of products

Educational improvements in connection with competence assessment

Long term monitoring for specific diseases (ET, etc.)

Smart models in steel industry

Modelling nano-coating behaviour,

Research profile description:
Name	Integrated index for short-term assessment of the quality of life.
Technology domain	Technology applied to social sciences
Research project duration	3.5 years
Summary of research project / opportunity	As far as Shanghai administration starts to get publicly available datasets related to the city (http://soda.datashanghai.gov.cn/ ) and in order to provide a comprehensive overview of the city behaviour at district level, our view is to integrate different information automatically collected (quality of air, water quality, quality of services –schools, restaurants, etc). The utility of such ‘virtual sensor’ will be to provide comparative behaviour between districts along the time (on regular basis), helping to better understand how managerial decisions impact into society. Extra features like people opinion through out Weixin or Weibo can be also gathered.
Profile of researcher	A PhD student interested in ICT stuff but with high motivation to contribute to the social development and to help people by means of the technology. Motivation in doing research is also welcome. Examples of the meaning for interested in ICT will be (in a non exclusive way): Knowledge about REST technology Knowledge about json data structures Knowledge about python language Knowledge about Hadoop, hive and similar technologies.
Additional requisites	It will be worthy to get involved a Tongji’s professor as co-advisor as well. Not only because the direct help `provided with authorities in Shanghái but because of the extension of the cooperation, avoiding to keep just individual actions.
