As\npeople move across devices to complete these tasks, their identities becomes\nfragmented. Understanding the usage and transition between those devices is\nessential to develop efficient applications in a multi-device world. In this\npaper we present a solution to deal with the cross-device identification of\nusers based on semi-supervised machine learning methods to identify which\ncookies belong to an individual using a device. The method proposed in this\npaper scored third in the ICDM 2015 Drawbridge Cross-Device Connections\nchallenge proving its good performance.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1510.01175v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1510.01175v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"cross-device-tracking-matching-devices-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/RobeDM/ICDM2015","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"machine-learning","task_name":"BIG-bench Machine Learning"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
