The role of prediction algorithms in the MavHome smart home architecture

چکیده
The goal of the Managing an Adaptive Versatile Home (MavHome) project is to create a home that acts as a rational agent. The agent seeks to maximize inhabitant comfort and minimize operation cost. In order to achieve these goals, the agent must be able to predict the mobility patterns and device usages of the inhabitants. In this article, we introduce the MavHome project and its underlying architecture. The role of prediction algorithms within the architecture is discussed, and three prediction algorithms that are central to home operations are presented. We demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithms on synthetic and/or actual smart home data. THE ROLE OF PREDICTION ALGORITHMS IN THE MAVHOME SMART HOME ARCHITECTURE

Learning to Control a Smart Home Environment
The goal of the MavHome (Managing An Intelligent Versatile Home) project is to create a home that acts as an intelligent agent. In this paper, we introduce the MavHome architecture and two learning algorithms that play central roles in the smart home. The first algorithm predicts actions the inhabitant will take in the home. The second algorithm learns a policy to control the home. Effectivenes...
متن کاملDesigning Smart Environments: A Paradigm Based on Learning and Prediction
This chapter proposes a learning and prediction based paradigm for designing smart home environments. The foundation of this paradigm lies in information theory as it manages uncertainties in inhabitants’ contexts (e.g., location or mobility, and activities) in daily lives. The underlying idea is to intelligently build compressed dictionaries of context profiles collected from sensor data, effi...
متن کاملIdentification of Lifestyle Behavior Patterns with Prediction of the Happiness of an Inhabitant in a Smart Home
With the rapid growth of the population and the increase in the elderly age group, there is a need to improve and maintain an independent, secure healthy lifestyle. A possible method to address this need is to apply intelligent technology using machine learning techniques in smart homes to remotely monitor an individual’ s activities. The MavHome project uses a system of basic sensors to monito...
متن کاملHealth Monitoring in an Agent-Based Smart Home by Activity Prediction
To many people, home is a sanctuary. For those people who need special medical care, they may need to be pulled out of their home to meet their medical needs. As the population ages, the percentage of people in this group is increasing and the effects are expensive as well as unsatisfying. We hypothesize that many people with disabilities can lead independent lives in their own homes with the a...
متن کاملAutomation Intelligence for the Smart Environment
Scaling AI algorithms to large problems requires that these algorithms work together to harness their respective strengths. We introduce a method of automatically constructing HHMMs using the output of a sequential data-mining algorithm and sequential prediction algorithm. We present the theory of this technique and demonstrate results using the MavHome intelligent environment.
