A.: Reasoning about Context in Ambient Intelligence Environments: A Report from the Field

by Grigoris Antoniou, Constantinos Papatheodorou, Antonis Bikakis - In: Proceedings of KR
"... The study of ambient computing (AmI) environments and pervasive computing systems has introduced new research challenges in the field of KR. These are mainly caused by the imperfect nature of context information, and the need to provide distributed reasoning capabilities. [4] characterizes four type ..."

Decentralized Reasoning in Ambient Intelligence.

by José Viterbo , Markus Endler - Briefs in Computer Science. , 2012
"... Abstract-In Ambient Intelligence (AmI), reasoning is fundamental for identifying specific situations that may be meaningful and relevant to some applications. As in such systems usually not all context data is readily available to all reasoners within a system, these reasoning operations may need t ..."

Employing Description Logics in Ambient Intelligence for Modeling and Reasoning about Complex Situations

by Thomas Springer, Anni-yasmin Turhan , 2009
"... Ambient Intelligence systems need to represent information about their environment and recognize relevant situations to perform appropriate actions proactively and autonomously. The context information gathered by these systems comes with imperfections such as incompleteness or incorrectness. These ..."

Towards an extensible context ontology for ambient intelligence

by Davy Preuveneers, Jan Van Den Bergh, Dennis Wagelaar, Andy Georges, Peter Rigole, Tim Clerckx, E Berbers, Karin Coninx, Koen De Bosschere - In: Proceedings of the Second European Symposium on Ambient Intelligence , 2004
"... Abstract. To realise an Ambient Intelligence environment, it is paramount that applications can dispose of information about the context in which they operate, preferably in a very general manner. For this purpose various types of information should be assembled to form a representation of the conte ..."

Distributed Defeasible Reasoning in Ambient Intelligence

by Antonis Bikakis, Grigoris Antoniou, P. Hassapis
"... Ambient Computing environments host various agents that collect, process, change and share the available context information. The imperfect nature of context, the open and dynamic nature of ambient environments, the different viewpoints from which the ambient agents face the same context, and their ..."

Explanations and context in ambient intelligent systems

by Anders Kofod-petersen, Jörg Cassens - Modeling and Using Context – CONTEXT 2007. Volume 4635 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science , 2007
"... Abstract. Ambient intelligent systems are context aware by perceiving and reasoning about their environment, they perceive the needs of their users and proactively respond to these needs by being context sensitive. Users do not interact with these systems by traditional means only, but also through ..."

Contextual Reasoning

by Fausto Giunchiglia - EPISTEMOLOGIA, SPECIAL ISSUE ON I LINGUAGGI E LE MACCHINE , 1992
"... It is widely agreed on that most cognitive processes are contextual in the sense that they depend on the environment, or context, inside which they are carried on. Even concentrating on the issue of contextuality in reasoning, many different notions of context can be found in the Artificial Intel ..."

Intelligence literature. Our intuition is that reasoning is usually performed on a subset of the global knowledge base. The notion of context is used as a means of formalizing this idea of localization. Roughly speaking, we take a context to be the set of facts used locally to prove a given goal plus

A User-Interface Robot for Ambient Intelligent Environments

by A.J.N. van Breemen, M. Nuttin, Prof Holstlaan, K. Crucq, J. M. Porta Tt, B. J. A. Krsse It, E. Demeester , 2003
"... This paper reports on the development of a domestic user-interface robot that is able to have natural human interaction by speech and emotional feedback. Natural interaction with the user is achieved by means of a mechanical head able to express emotions. Additionally, our robot is aware not only of ..."
Abstract - Cited by 14 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
of its position in the environment but also of the position and intentions of the users. The localization of the robot is achieved with an appearance-based localization method. To get information about the users, the robot is designed to operate in (and to cooperate with) an intelligent ambient

Challenges in case-based reasoning for context awareness in ambient intelligent systems

by Anders Kofod-petersen - 8th European Conference on CaseBased Reasoning, Workshop Proceedings, Ölüdeniz , 2006
"... Abstract. One of the most important issues in an ambient intelligent environment, indeed in any problem-solving situation, is the ability of a system to appreciate its environment and assess the situation in which problems are to be solved. Recently, case-based reasoning has gained some momentum in ..."
