Abstract

Data collected from the Internet of Things (IoT) covers a variety of dimensions indicating some features of a specific monitoring eco-environment. The feature correlation may not easy to identify due to the metadata eliminated between discrete dimensions of IoT data. How to transform discrete IoT data into its domain knowledge becomes an interesting research topic. This paper proposes a novel methodology to formalize the IoT data to the domain knowledge. Through exploring a real smart agriculture case, we understand the deployment of an IoT system in a tea eco-environment. The correlation matrix is produced to present the relationships between IoT sensor data. Principal component analysis reduces the volume of data dimensions. A semantic network is constructed to deploy the associations of discrete IoT data. Multi-criteria decision analysis is used to get recommended domain knowledge from the semantic network. The contribution of this paper is to propose a novel methodology to transform discrete IoT data into its domain knowledge.
