报告摘要（ABSTRACT）：
In this “big-data" era, vast amount of continuously arriving data can be found in various fields, such as sensor networks, network management, web and financial applications. To process such data, algorithms are usually challenged by its complex structure and high volume. Representation learning facilitates the data operation by providing a condensed description of patterns underlying the data. In this talk, representation learning models will be discussed for profiling users from their movement trajectories, for characterizing the dynamic density of the data stream by an online density estimator, and for approximating and compacting data stream by a number of consecutive line segments.  Knowledge discovery from new representations will be introduced and applications to different problems will be demonstrated. Potential applications to software engineering, IoT systems, autonomous systems and smart cities will be discussed.
