Book Synopsis Behaviour Monitoring and Interpretation - BMI by : B. Gottfried
Download or read book Behaviour Monitoring and Interpretation - BMI written by B. Gottfried. This book was released on 2009-09-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with behaviour monitoring and interpretation with regard to two main areas of focus: the investigation of motion patterns and ambient assisted living. It presents state-of-the-art contributions on research in both these areas. The first section consists of chapters discussing recent developments in monitoring and representing behaviours, with a particular focus on movement-based behaviour. It includes: methods for monitoring and analysing pedestrian motion behaviours; typical motion patterns of single people and groups of people. In particular, a number of qualitative spatial representations are presented for describing patterns topologically and ordinally. The next part of the volume is more application-driven. Several case studies present the monitoring and support of people with cognitive impairments in smart environments, showing in particular how AI techniques are applied in these contexts and also how ambient assisted physical activity systems help to increase the engagement of seniors in physical activities. Investigations to show how monitored behaviours can be interpreted in smart environments are then described: a survey on knowledge-intensive methods for intention recognition; the detection of high-level daily activities by analysis of team behaviours in smart environments and a model for how ambient intelligence systems can automatically discover patterns of user behaviours. Finally, the publication discusses the infrastructure of smart environments.

Book Synopsis Qualitative Spatial and Temporal Reasoning by : Gérard Ligozat
Download or read book Qualitative Spatial and Temporal Reasoning written by Gérard Ligozat. This book was released on 2013-05-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting with an updated description of Allen's calculus, the book proceeds with a description of the main qualitative calculi which have been developed over the last two decades. It describes the connection of complexity issues to geometric properties. Models of the formalisms are described using the algebraic notion of weak representations of the associated algebras. The book also includes a presentation of fuzzy extensions of qualitative calculi, and a description of the study of complexity in terms of clones of operations.
