Abstract
Recent technological advancements in Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical systems are fostering the diffusion of smart environments relying on sensor networks. Indeed, large and heterogeneous amount of data can be provided by sensors deployed in user environments providing valuable knowledge to address different user needs and enabling more effective and reliable solutions as well as ensuring personalization and dynamic adaptation. This paper presents a recent research initiative whose aim is to realize autonomous and socially interacting robots by integrating sensor data representation and knowledge reasoning with decision making functionalities within a cognitive control architecture, called Knowledge-based cOntinuous Loop (KOaLa).
