Vsebina:
Content (Syllabus outline):

Uvod:
definicija, vizija in izzivi ambientalne inteligence; strojna in programska podlaga – pogoste vrste senzorjev in drugih naprav, vmesna programska oprema, vgrajeni sistemi

Uporaba senzorjev na telesu:
sinhronizacija, filtriranje in združevanje senzorskih podatkov; interpretacija z drsečim oknom in strojnim učenjem ali pravili; upoštevanje konteksta in prilagajanje uporabnikom

Pametni prostori:
računalniški vid, sklepanje v času in verjetnostno sklepanje za potrebe ambientalne inteligence

Interakcija z uporabniki:
inovativne vhodno-izhodne naprave, uporaba metafor v uporabniških vmesnikih, načela snovanja interakcije z uporabniki v ambientalni inteligenci

Značilne aplikacije ambientalne inteligence:
prepoznavanje aktivnosti, zaznavanje padcev, analiza razpoloženja uporabnikov, zaznavanje nenavadnega obnašanja, spremljanje kroničnih bolnikov, udobje in varčevanje z energijo v pametnih stavbah

Introduction:
definition, vision and challenges of ambient intelligence; hardware and software foundation – common sensors and other devices, middleware and embedded systems

Use of wearable sensors:
synchronisation, filtering and fusion of sensor data; interpretation with a sliding window and machine learning; using context and adapting to individual users

Smart environments:
computer vision, temporal and probabilistic reasoning for ambient intelligence

User interaction:
innovative input/output devices, the use of metaphors in user interfaces, the principles of designing user interaction in ambient intelligence

Representative applications of ambient intelligence:
activity recognition, fall detection, mood analysis, detection of unusual behaviour, monitoring of chronic patients, comfort and energy saving in smart buildings

Cilji in kompetence:
Objectives and competences:

Cilj predmeta je seznaniti študenta s področjem ambientalne inteligence in vseprisotnega računalništva. Poudarek bo na inteligentnih algoritmih za interpretacijo podatkov iz senzorjev in ukrepanju na podlagi take interpretacije. Bo pa predmet obravnaval vse glavne vidike ambientalne inteligence, od strojne in nizkonivojske programske opreme do interakcije z uporabniki.

Študenti, ki bodo uspešno končali ta predmet, bodo razumeli smoter ambientalne inteligence in bodo spodobni zasnovati in razviti aplikacije ambientalne inteligence.

The objective of the course is to familiarize the student with the field of ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing. The focus will be on intelligent algorithms for the interpretation of sensor data and acting upon such interpretation. However, the course will address all the key topics of ambient intelligence, from hardware and low- level software to user interaction.

The students who will successfully complete this course will grasp the purpose of ambient intelligence and will be able to design and develop ambient-intelligence applications.
