A Real-World Event Search System in Sensor Network Environments
Takeshi Okadome, Takashi Hattori, K. Hiramatsu, Y. Yanagisawa · 2006
Assuming an environment in which a sensor network always collects data produced by sensors attached to physical objects, the demonstration system presented here searches sensor data for corresponding real-world events using a natural language (NL) words in a query. The system translates each query into a physical quantity representation also introduced here, searches for a sensor data segment that satisfies the description by the representation, and returns the information about the event that is reflected in time series of values from sensor readings.
