Welcome to SFERA toolkit.
This repository includes the release jar and the code source for SFERA : A toolkit to experiment on re-identification attacks on mobility traces.
You can find in this project:
- In Release: jar to launch the attack.
- In SourceV0: source codes.
- In Technical Report: a technical report written as a paper with additionnal experiments.
This toolkit is a wrap of bigger project Accio
One dataset = One directory of mobility traces.
One mobility trace of user = One CSV file named <user_id>.csv
CSV file format = Each line is a record of the mobility trace.
One record = < lattitude >, < longitude >, < timestamp >
Timestamp = Unix time POSIX .
You can see in the table below the list of options. Only one mode at a time can be used.
