Mining IoT data for next generation smart cities

Abstract

Convergence of Cloud, IoT, Networking devices and Data science has ignited a new era of smart cities concept all around us. The backbone of any smart city is the underlying infrastructure involving thousands of IoT devices connected together to work in real time. Data Analytics can play a crucial role in gaining valuable insights into the volumes of data generated by these devices. The objective of this paper is to apply some most commonly used classification algorithms to a real time dataset and compare their performance on IoT data. The performance summary of the algorithms under test is also tabulated.
