Description
Summary:Smart home research requires study of psychological characteristics of home user. People follow some specific patterns in their life style. Inhabitant activity classification plays a vital role to predict smart home events. The paper proposed a multiagent system to track the user for task isolation. The system is composed of cooperative agents which works by sharing local views of individual agents. An algorithm is derived based on opposite entity state extraction for activity classification. The algorithm clusters the smart home events by isolating opposite status of home appliance. Result shows that the proposed algorithm can successfully identify inhabitant activities of various lengths. ©2010 IEEE.
