Abstract

This one-day workshop consisted of two sub-workshops with both exclusive as well as partially overlapping joint sessions. The sub-workshops were called "AI Problems and Approaches for Intelligent Environments" and "Semantic Cities" respectively. However, the common theme was to drive intelligent ecosystems, whether at the level of individual systems like buildings or at the level of system of systems, like cities.

Real-life activity recognition: recognizing reading activities

How can we extract high level information about human actions and complex real world situations from heterogeneous ensembles of simple, often unreliable sensors embedded in commodity devices?

We focus on how to use body-worn devices for activity ...

Demand-driven power saving by multiagent negotiation for HVAC control

Buildings account for roughly 40% of all U.S. energy use, and HVAC systems are a major culprit. The goal of this research is to reduce power consumption without sacrificing human comfort. This paper presents a cooling demand estimation from heat ...

Interdependent multi-issue negotiation for energy exchange in remote communities

We present a novel negotiation protocol to facilitate energy exchange between off-grid homes that are equipped with renewable energy generation and electricity storage. Our protocol imposes restrictions over negotiation such that it reduces the complex ...

A motion detection system for video surveillance

In this paper we describe a motion detection module, which is part of Horus, a video surveillance system already deployed in field. The module integrates and improves upon existing algorithms, whose combination proves to be particularly effective in ...

A framework for short-term activity-aware load forecasting

In this paper, we present a framework for implementing short-term load forecasting, in which statistical time series prediction methods and machine learning-based regression methods, can be configured to benchmark their performance against each other on ...

A semantic approach to retrieving, linking, and integrating heterogeneous geospatial data

There is a tremendous amount of geospatial data available, and there are numerous methods for extracting, processing and integrating geospatial sources. However, end-users' ability to retrieve, combine, and integrate heterogeneous geospatial data is ...

On the challenges of balancing privacy and utility of open health data

While health data has been collected at large scale for many years, this data is often difficult to obtain for the purpose of research. This is in part due to the cost and complexities involved in preparing this data for third parties. Health data must ...

A computational model for corruption assessment

Corruption afflicts public services world-wide and is universally considered undesirable. However, there is little prior work to formalize it so that it can be attacked effectively using computational (ICT) techniques. It is believed that trends like ...

Intention-aware routing to minimise delays at electric vehicle charging stations: the research related to this demonstration has been published at IJCAI 2013 [1]

En-route charging stations allow electric vehicles to greatly extend their range. However, as a full charge takes a considerable amount of time, there may be significant waiting times at peak hours. To address this problem, we propose a novel navigation ...
