Mobile Terminal Crowd Sourcing provides social network information and services for users through data processing and data mining. Intelligent engine provides recommendation based on historical information and real-time environment, which are primarily used in intelligent life, mobile social networking, and other fields. Firstly, the concept of intelligent engine is introduced, the research strategy...
Intelligent Environments (IEs) are expected to support people in their daily lives. To achieve this goal, the environment should learn how to react to the actions and needs of the users, and this should be achieved in an unobtrusive and transparent way. In order to provide personalized and adapted services, it is necessary to know the preferences and habits of users. Thus, the ability to learn patterns...
This paper discusses the research and technologies around the area of smart homes. It takes the position that the word smart has been used in many contexts both where it makes sense and where it does not. Furthermore from a pedagogical point of view, the paper discusses the use of a smart home lab as means to teach various AI paradigms that require a live interaction with its environment. Here the...
Open source tools for Knowledge Representation in databases and the implementation of a real time expert system for mineral processing operations (size reduction and enrichment) are discussed. The use of a column-oriented database system (Infobright IEE) to store quantitative data from sensors that measure feed size distribution, feed rate, aeration rate, pulp density, pH and temperature allows low...
The inhabited environments are MIMO, uncertainly, and nonlinear complex systems. This paper presents a novel intelligent fuzzy agent(IFA) based on input-output associational algorithm for intelligent inhabited environments. An input-output dynamic associational algorithm based on Hebb learning is proposed, which can divide a complex system into multiple simple systems and eliminate the irrelevant...

We present novel exploration algorithms and a control law that enable the construction of Voronoi diagrams over unknown areas using a single autonomous vehicle equipped with range sensors. Our control law and exploration algorithms are provably complete. The control law uses range measurements to enable tracking Voronoi edges between two obstacles. Exploration algorithms make decisions at vertices...
In this paper, we give a progress report on an ongoing effort at Accenture to develop a technology platform for building a wide range of corporate radar applications,which can turn the Web into a systematic source of business insight. Our goal is to share the platform we have developed and the lessons we have learned, so others can leverage this knowledge when building similar applications. We give...
In this paper we present a causal artificial intelligence design (CAID) theory that borrows notions from classical philosophy for modeling intelligent agents. Principles introduced by this theory are used for extending a goal-driven BDI architecture and implementing what we call causal agent. This architecture incorporates causal formalisms like Pearl's Do calculus and C+ which are adapted to Semantic...
Searching to reproduce intelligence by the mean of modelling cognitive abilities has been a trend of artificial intelligence research for over fifty years. With respect to this, the relatively limited advances of this last decade suggest that new areas of consideration need to be investigated. In particular, Nouvelle AI, which originates from a more ecological approach, claims a critical part for...
Nowadays ubiquitous computing is spreading to all scopes of our lives. Smart environments are present at every location such us homes with automation and control devices, offices full of control networks to assist workers, or hotels with even more control devices in order to save energy and satisfy guests preferences. This paper focus on the proposal of a Reference Architecture for developing Smart...
In the ubiquitous computing environment, image processing system will play an increasingly more significant role in ensuring safety of industrial sites in the future. In step with the advancements of image processing technologies, surveillance monitoring system and automation system are under the spotlight as key elements in industrial sites and leveraging intelligent ubiquitous systems effectively...
The environment is complex and the parameters are difficult to measure accurately in coal mine, so fuzzy theory and neural network technology were applied to structure intelligent fuzzy neural network sensor system in the areas of coal mine safety monitoring, which had a research focus on the formation and training of intelligent fuzzy sensor system membership function network samples and fuzzy inference...
Media art can be defined as 'a computer-based creative activity' in narrow sense or 'a general art using technology' in broad sense. It is a common opinion that aunique artistry through the media in the aesthetic dimension and empirical dimension in eliciting the participation of the audience is an important issue. In this media art `Interaction' with the audience cannot be overemphasized. Because...
Emotions in general are a complex phenomenon to comprehend. They have been known to influence decisions as also behavior. Several computational models for emotions have been attempted. In this paper we present the dynamics and working of a multi-agent emotion generating system. Three basic emotions viz. happiness, fear and anger have been used to generate a resultant internal mood for a machine or...
From the point of view of cognitive informatics, consciousness can be considered as a grand integration of a number of cognitive processes. Intuitive definitions of consciousness generally involve perception, emotions, attention, self-recognition, theory of mind, volition, etc. Due to this compositional definition of the term consciousness it is usually difficult to define both what is exactly a conscious...
As the matter of the developing of the intelligent system, the intelligent systems have more and more subsystems and elements to support or to control the system functions. Therefore, building an advanced intelligent system, the core control algorithms of its subsystems should be established optimally. The major aim of this paper is to research that when under the certain outside forces (Physical...
In this study, eight different leg motions are classified using two single-axis gyroscopes mounted on the right leg of a subject with the help of several pattern recognition techniques. The methods of least squares, Bayesian decision, k-nearest neighbor, dynamic time warping, artificial neural networks and support vector machines are used for classification and their performances are compared. This...
In computing, ambient intelligence (AmI) (O. Zuckerman) ((P. Remagnino and G.L. Foresti)) refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. In an ambient intelligent world, devices work in concert to support people in carrying out their everyday life activities, tasks and rituals in easy, natural way using information and intelligence that is hidden in...
This paper deals with the use of the event B method to develop an automated system as a closed one with two components : the controller and the controlled. The first is a software component controlling the second one that models the physical device and its environment. A formal method is proposed to co-design separately these components before their composition defined with the event B method to prove...
