12th International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient
Intelligence UCAMI 2018
http://mamilab.esi.uclm.es/ucami2018 Punta
Cana, Dominican Republic DECEMBER 4 TO 7TH, 2018 Conference
Background & Goals
The Ubiquitous Computing (UC) idea envisioned by Weiser in 1991,
has
recently evolved to a more general paradigm known as Ambient
Intelligence (AmI) that represents a new generation of
user-centred
computing environments and systems. These solutions aim to find
new ways
to obtain a better integration of the information technology in
everyday
life devices and activities.
AmI environments are integrated by several autonomous
computational
devices of modern life ranging from consumer electronics to mobile
phones. Ideally, people in an AmI environment will not notice
these
devices, but they will benefit from the services these solutions
provide
them. Such devices are aware of the people present in those
environments
by reacting to their gestures, actions and context. Recently the
interest in AmI environments has grown considerably due to new
challenges posed by society, demanding highly innovative services,
such
as vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), Ambient Assisted Living
(AAL),
e-Health, Internet of Things and Home Automation among others. The
main
focus of this edition of the UCAmI Conference will be "Ambient
Intelligence: Sensing, Processing and Using Environmental
Information". Publication
All accepted conference papers will be included in SPRINGER

1ST UCAMI CUP - Analyzing human activity recognition dataset
In this first UCAmI Cup the competition will be focused on the
recognition of 25 types of human activities in a single and
interleave
way in real time from a smart lab in where 31 binary sensors are
deployed. 10 days of activities are provided with three periods of
time
in each day: morning, afternoon and evening. For more info about
the competition and registration, please go to
