Wed, 12-11-2014 8:00 Registration 9:00 Plenary session 12A - Opening and Keynote lectures room: SAAL 9:00 Opening by conference chairs 9:15 Keynote - Personalization in Ambient Intelligence: Exploration vs. Exploitation Maurits Kaptein, Assistant Professor Artificial Intelligence at Radboud University, The Netherlands In this talk Dr. Maurits Kaptein will present his work on persuasion profiling in ambient intelligence applications. In these applications, persuasive communication towards users is adapted to their behavioural responses to this communication. Based on this work Maurits will explore the future challenges of personalization in ambient intelligent environments: Maurits will discuss the exploration-exploitation trade-off that designers inherently face when creating personalized technologies, and will briefly discuss ways to formalise estimates of the effect of personalization. The talk aims to introduce Persuasion Profiles to the community, and use these profiles as an example of the challenges designers face when developing personalized systems. 9:45 Keynote - The Role of Connected Lighting in Smart Cities Satyen Mukherjee, Chief Scientist, Sr Director at Philips Research North America With demographic changes taking place globally cities are increasingly growing in number, size, and population density among others. Consequently the demands on the cities are growing rapidly in terms of infrastructure and support services. Smart city solutions are addressing these driving needs which include: sustainability, security, safety, services, social programs, smart care and efficient space utilization both indoor and outdoor. Lighting solutions are fundamental infrastructural elements that touch upon many of these driving needs and with connected lighting systems can provide much needed value to emerging smart cities. This talk will highlight concepts of ambient intelligence as applied to connected lighting solutions and their applications in indoor and outdoor spaces for smart cities. Examples of ongoing demonstrations and deployments will be presented and new application opportunities and challenges will be discussed. 10:15 Break 10:40 Session 12B - Smart Healthcare and Healing Environments room: THEATER Session 12C - Intelligent Driving, Learning and Play room: VERDER 10:45 Tell Me What to Eat - Design and Evaluation of a Mobile Companion Helping Children and Their Parents to Plan Nutrition Intake Runhua Xu, Irena Pletikosa Cvijikj, Tobias Kowatsch, Florian Michahelles, Dirk Büchter, Björn Brogle, Anneco Dintheer, Dagmar I'Allemand and Wolfgang Maass (ETH Zurich, University of St.Gallen, Children's Hospital of Eastern Switzerland, St. Gallen, Saarland University) Steering Gameplay Behavior in the Interactive Tag Playground Robby van Delden, Alejandro Moreno, Ronald Poppe, Dennis Reidsma and Dirk Heylen (University of Twente, University of Utrecht) 11:15 The impact of the environment on the experience of hospitalized stroke patients - an exploratory study Elke Daemen, Evert Van Loenen and Roel Cuppen (Philips Research) Hands-on-the-wheel: Exploring the Design Space on the Back Side of a Steering Wheel Alexander Meschtscherjakov, David Wilfinger, Martin Murer, Sebastian Osswald and Manfred Tscheligi (University of Salzburg, Technische Universität München) 11:45 Detecting Walking in Synchrony through Smartphone Accelerometer and WiFi traces Enrique Garcia-Ceja, Venet Osmani, Alban Maxhuni and Oscar Mayora (Tecnológico de Monterrey, CREATE-NET) Driver-to-Driver Communication on the Highway: What Drivers Want Chao Wang, Jing Gu, Jacques Terken and Jun Hu (Eindhoven University of Technology) 12:15 SIMDOMO: A Tool for Long-term Simulations of Ambient-Assisted Living Massimo Zancanaro, Michele Marchesoni and Giampaolo Armellin (FBK-cit, GPI) Truck Drivers as Stakeholders in Cooperative Driving Freek de Bruijn and Jacques Terken (Eindhoven University of Technology) 12:30 Lunch 13:25 Session 12D - Ambient Persuasion and Smart Buildings room: THEATER Session 12E - Ambient Assisted Living 1 room: VERDER 13:30 Impact of blinds usage on energy consumption: automatic versus manual control Bernt Meerbeek, Thijs Van Druenen, Marielle Aarts, Evert Van Loenen and Emile Aarts (Philips Research, Eindhoven University of Technology) Analyzing Sounds of Home Environment for Device Recognition Svilen Dimitrov, Jochen Britz, Boris Brandherm and Jochen Frey (DFKI GmbH) 14:00 An investigation into perception-altering lighting concepts for supporting game designers in setting certain atmospheres within a videogame environment Hendrik Johannes Nieuwdorp, Martin Beresford and Vassilis-Javed Khan (NHTV Breda University of Applied Sciences) SALT: Source-Agnostic Localization Technique based on context data from Binary Sensor Networks Filippo Palumbo and Paolo Barsocchi (ISTI CNR) 14:30 Ambient Influence for Promoting Balanced Participation in Group Brainstorming Gianluca Schiavo, Alessandro Cappelletti, Eleonora Mencarini, Oliviero Stock and Massimo Zancanaro (University of Trento, FBK-irst) Monitoring Patients' Lifestyle with a Smartphone and Other Devices Placed Freely on the Body Mitja Lustrek, Bozidara Cvetkovic and Vito Janko (Jozef Stefan Institute) 14:45 Break 15:05 Plenary session 12F - Workshop presentations room: SAAL 15:10 WS1.

For example, we generate fog-filled bubbles that can be tracked and projected on to provide ambient notifications. Similarly, we create a curtain of mist to act as a reach-through personal space between the user and an interactive tabletop. In this talk, I will present some of our recent projects on this topic and conclude with UltraHaptics haptic feedback system that allows users to experience tactile feedback simultaneously in multiple locations on an interactive surface. This feedback is created in mid-air � so users don't have to touch or hold any device to experience it. The talk will be at a level that would be accessible to both novice and experts in the field of haptics and display technology. 9:45 Keynote - Smile Sharing: Technologies for Facilitating Social Positive Behaviors Kenji Suzuki, Associate Professor Center for Cybernics Research, University of Tsukuba, Japan This talk aims to introduce several wearable devices for computational behavioral modeling to the ambient intelligence community. The developed devices are designed to support and enhance personal and emotional experiences among people by measuring and presenting physical contacts, spatial movement and facial expression. It is aimed not only to integrate cyber and physical spaces but also to help people develop their social and interpersonal ability. While conducting feasibility studies involving children with autism and developmental disorders in collaboration with schools for children with special needs and non-profit organizations. I also would like to introduce a novel paradigm of computational behavioral modeling called social imaging, which has broadened into a framework that encompasses the measurement, analysis and modeling of social interaction among people. 10:15 Break 10:40 Plenary session 13B - New and Emerging Themes 1 room: SAAL 10:45 Privacy Classification for Ambient Intelligence Jasper van de Ven and Frank Dylla (University of Bremen) 11:15 Developing a Face Monitoring Robot for a Deskworker Ryosuke Kondo, Yutaka Deguchi and Einoshin Suzuki (Kyushu University) 11:45 A benchmarking model for sensors in smart environments Andreas Braun, Reiner Wichert, Arjan Kuijper and Dieter W.
