Visual analysis of sensor logs in smart spaces: Activities vs. situations

Models of human habits in smart spaces can be expressed by using a multitude of representations whose readability influences the possibility of being validated by human experts. Our research is focused on developing a visual analysis pipeline (service) that allows, starting from the sensor log of a smart space, to graphically visualize human habits. The basic assumption is to apply techniques borrowed from the area of business process automation and mining on a version of the sensor log preprocessed in order to translate raw sensor measurements into human actions.

On Optimal Crowd-Sensing Task Management in Developing Countries

In developing countries, crop field productivity is particularly vulnerable to spreading diseases, including viruses and fungi. This is mostly due to the lack of skilled plant pathologists as well as to the scarce fund and poor infrastructure (e.g., roads, power and water lines) availability.
The PlantVillage project through its mobile application named Nuru provides an AI digital assistant to recognize plants and their diseases through image analysis.
