Spatio-Temporal Footprints
Hans W. Guesgen, Stephen Marsland · International Journal of Ambient Computing and Intelligence · 2010
The recognition of human behaviour from sensor observations is an important area of research in smart homes and ambient intelligence. In this paper, we introduce the idea of spatio-temporal footprints, which are local patterns in space and time that should be similar across repeated occurrences of the same behaviour. We discuss the spatial and temporal mapping requirements of these footprints, together with how they may be used.
