Abstract

Recently, predicting personality with the help of smartphone usage becomes very interesting and attention grabbing topic in the field of research. At present there are some approaches towards detecting a user's personality which uses the smartphones usage data, such as call detail records (CDRs), the usage of short message services (SMSs) and the usage of social networking services application. In this paper, we focus on the assessing the correlation between MBTI based user personality and the smartphone usage data. We used $Na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes and SVM classifier for classifying user personalities by extracting some features from smartphone usage data. From analysis it is observed that, among all extracted features facebook usage log working as the best feature for classification of introverts and extraverts; and SVM classifier works well as compared to $Na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes.

최근 스마트폰 사용 형태의 도움을 받아 사용자 특성을 예측하는 것은 매우 흥미롭고 주의를 사로잡는 연주 주제이다. 현재 몇몇 연구들은 사용자의 특성을 예측하기 위해 전화 사용 기록, 문자 메시지 사용 기록, 소셜 네트워크 서비스 사용 기록 등을 이용하고 있다. 이 논문에서, 우리는 MBTI 사용자 특성과 스마트폰 사용로그 간의 관계를 평가한다. 이를 위해, 스마트폰 사용 기록에서 부터 몇몇 특징들을 추출하고 이를 Naive Bayes와 SVM등의 분류기에 적용하여 사용자의 특성을 구분하였다. 사용자 특성 분석 결과의 분석을 통해 facebook사용 기록이 외향적인 사람과 내향적인 사람을 가장 잘 구분하는 것을 알 수 있었고, SVM 분류기가 Naive Bayes보다 사용자의 특성을 잘 예측하는 것을 확인하였다.
