Qualitative Spatial Scene Modeling for Ambient Intelligence Environments

چکیده
In ambient intelligence systems, it is necessary to represent and reason about dynamic spatial scenes and configurations. Primarily, the ability to perform predictive and explanatory analyses on the basis of available sensory data is crucial toward serving a useful intelligent function within such environments. In this paper, we present a qualitative model for representing the relevant aspects of these environments in an adequate manner. The model is suited for reasoning about spatial configurations and dynamics in spatial environments. We clarify and elaborate on our ideas with examples grounded in a smart home environment.

A Qualitative Model of Dynamic Scene Analysis and Interpretation in Ambient Intelligence Systems
Ambient intelligence environments necessitate representing and reasoning about dynamic spatial scenes and configurations. The ability to perform predictive and explanatory analyses of spatial scenes is crucial toward serving a useful intelligent function within such environments. We present a formal qualitative model that combines existing qualitative theories about space with a formal logic-ba...
متن کاملThe Spatial Interaction Laboratory - A Distributed Middleware and Qualitative Representation for Ambient Intelligence
Personal communication and relationships within spatially distributed or separated groups can be difficult to establish and maintain. A promising approach investigated with respect to this problem are ambient intelligence and smart environments equipped with perception and communication technology. These technologies require a standardized way to access sensors, actuators, and to develop applic...
متن کاملQualitative Modeling of Object Behaviour in the Dynamic Vision System
The subject of this paper is cognitive analysis of the dynamic scene: on the base of the identified motions of objects and calculated trajectory attributes we need to analyse, evaluate and reconstruct behaviours implementing artificial intelligence methods. Dynamic scene analysis has traditionally been quantitative and typically generates large amounts of temporally evolving data. Recently, inc...
متن کاملCognitive Interpretation of Everyday Activities - Toward Perceptual Narrative Based Visuo-Spatial Scene Interpretation
We position a narrative-centred computational model for high-level knowledge representation and reasoning in the context of a range of assistive technologies concerned with visuo-spatial perception and cognition tasks. Our proposed narrative model encompasses aspects such as space, events, actions, change, and interaction from the viewpoint of commonsense reasoning and learning in large-scale c...
متن کاملSkin Patch Trajectories as Scene Dynamics Descriptors
There is an increasing interest in the concept of intelligent environments where a closed or delimited public space (shopping mall, station, museum, hospital etc) is endowed with some automatic ability to interpret human behavior. Intelligent environments interact with their users, aiding, serving and pre-emptying them. In a not too distant future, this paradigm in Europe called ambient intelli...
