Dr. Roy Maxion, a professor in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), who gave a lecture as part of the Panda Lecture series at our school, presented his ongoing research on “Analyzing Information Data from Keyboard Input for Individualized Identification.” On the morning of November 14, in the Chang Yeo Lan International Conference Hall of Hsu Shou-Chlien International Conference Center, he demonstrated the comparison of data collected in the laboratory and in real-world scenarios as part of the experiment. Dr. Maxion highlighted the concept of “bad data,” which arises from data collection equipment and can lead to significant misjudgments. He earnestly informed the audience that such misjudgments resulting from this data have impacted security systems using facial recognition, medical applications, and even court decisions. In his concluding slide, he reminded everyone of the importance of seemingly insignificant data, emphasizing that small data can have a substantial impact. He advised cautious, accurate, and careful data filtering, stating, “You may forget a few details...but they won’t forget you.”
