Towards an Interactive Personal Care System driven by Sensor Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
This demo presents an integrated application, exploiting technologies derived from various branches of Artificial Intelligence. The prototype, when triggered by an appropriate event, interacts with a person and expects them to perform a simple acknowledgement gesture: the following actions, then, depend on the actual recognition of this gesture. In order to achieve this goal, a combination of data stream processing and rule based programming is used. While the more quantitative components exploit techniques such as Clustering or (Hidden) Markov Models, the higher levels, more qualitative and declarative, are based on well known frameworks such as Event Calculus and Fuzzy Logic.

متن کاملArchitecture for Smart Sensors System for Tele-health
In this paper, we propose an architecture for a smart sensors system (SSS) that can be used by home care staff, nurses and physicians to identify the patients who need an immediate or urgent attention. The system is focused primarily towards home bound patients who have limited mobility and reduced ability to call for help when needed. The system will be helpful in chronic medical conditions su...
متن کاملSenQ: An Extensible Query System for Streaming Data in Heterogeneous Interactive Wireless Sensor Networks
Interactive wireless sensor networks (IWSNs) manifest diverse sensors and dynamic user interactions. To support data collection and processing in such heterogeneous systems, we created SenQ: an extensible query system and network protocol for streaming sensor data. We evaluate it using a set of devices we developed for physiological, environmental, and activity monitoring in the context of assi...
