iWOAR 2017, 4th International Workshop on Sensor-based Activity Recognition and Interaction

Ubiquitous systems are becoming an integral part of our everyday lives. Functionality and user experience often depends on accurate, sensor-based activity recognition and interaction. Systems aiming to provide the user with assistance or to monitor their behavior and condition rely heavily on sensors and the activities and interactions that they can recognize. Providing adequate activity recognition and interaction requires consideration for particular elements: sensors that are capable of capturing relevant behavior, methods that reason about sensor readings in the context of these behaviors, and appropriate methods for assisting and interacting with the user. All of these aspects are essential and can influence the quality and suitability of the provided service.
