Product Description This unique volume presents the latest theoretical and technological progress and results of the scientific research on activity recognition in the context of pervasive intelligent environments. Pervasive intelligent environments, supported by the advance and prevalence of low-cost, low-power computing devices and communication infrastructure, are evolving from a vision towards an achievable reality, enabling innovative applications that are otherwise impossible. Research, so far, has strongly indicated that activity recognition is key to the success of intelligent environments and their novel applications. This book is a timely effort to provide essential material to inform relevant research communities of the latest developments in this area. The book also offers an invaluable reference for researchers and system developers who are working towards the design and development of activity-based context aware applications. Specifically, the book addresses four different aspects of activity recognition, namely activity modelling, representation and reasoning; activity recognition methods and algorithms; novel architectures, technologies and tools for activity recognition; and representative applications of activity recognition in intelligent environments.
