Artificial Intelligence Methods for Ambient Intelligence

Ambient Intelligence (ISTAG (2001) Scenarios for Ambient Intelligence in 2010) is a vision that enables intelligent environments with pervasive technology. In this vision human users are at the cent re, but machine and human are seen as equal, collaborating, to improve both human being and machine performance. Ambient Intelligence offers many benefits. For example, by inst rumenting public and ...

Ambient Intelligence - the Next Step for Artificial Intelligence

importance, with Nigel Shadbolt’s editorial in the July/August 2003 issue.5 Other concepts such as ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing, con­ text awareness, and embedded systems overlap with AmI, but there are distinctive differences.6 The Istag reports define AmI at a concep­ tual level and identify important technologies for achieving it. In Ambient Intelligence: From Vision to Reality,...

Thematic issue on contribution of Artificial Intelligence to Ambient Intelligence

∗ Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected]. Since its inception, the vision of Ambient Intelligence (AmI) holds great promise in permeating everyday life thereby changing the nature of almost every human activity [6]. In the AmI paradigm, intelligent computation will be invisibly embedded into our everyday environments through a pervasive transparent infrastructure (consisting of a multit...

Artificial Intelligence for Artificial Artificial Intelligence

Crowdsourcing platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk have become popular for a wide variety of human intelligence tasks; however, quality control continues to be a significant challenge. Recently, we propose TURKONTROL, a theoretical model based on POMDPs to optimize iterative, crowdsourced workflows. However, they neither describe how to learn the model parameters, nor show its effectiveness...
