Centria has utilized a wide range of mobile device built-in capabilities in the mobile applications it has developed. For example, Wi-Fi has been used for vehicular area networking, 3G/4G/LTE for vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, and Bluetooth for acquiring OBD2 information. When all these functionalities are connected into one single device with an adaptive dashboard, we have a powerful tool for cognitive infocommunication (CogInfoCom) in the vehicular environment. Fully programmable additional user interfaces can provide two direction communication channels for the driver. Applications can make use of the data gathered from multiple sources and support driving events in an intelligent way through location awareness alerts and notifications. Because they are independent of vehicle technology, web-based HTML applications and mobile phone user interfaces guarantee the potential to reach a vast majority of people driving older cars in traffic. Applications developed by Centria will bring this old car fleet fully into the context of intelligent transport systems (ITS).","PeriodicalId":377891,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)","volume":"196 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114174128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Passengers have to determine the possible ways to get from one place to another at a specified time and then choose the best one. Their decisions depend on many factors e.g. journey time, walking distances, transfers, waiting times, price of the journey as well as the preferences of the passengers. This paper presents an innovative journey planning system which is able to handle as well as collect data about preferences of different passenger layers. The experiences show that passenger preferences at the beginning of the journey differ from the ones at the middle of the journey which implies that infocommunication applications used for passenger information and journey planning should consider these differences.","PeriodicalId":377891,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114692555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially if only the speech channel is available (e.g. telephone), correct timing as well as affective and verbal signals are required. In cases of failure, overlapping speech may occur which is in the focus of this paper. We investigate the davero corpus a large naturalistic spoken corpus of real call center telephone conversations and compare our findings to results on the well-known SmartKom corpus consisting of human-computer interaction. We first show that overlapping speech occurs in different types of situational settings - extending the well-known categories cooperative and competitive overlaps -, all of which are frequent enough to be analyzed. Furthermore, we present connections between the occurrence of overlapping speech and the length of the previous utterance, and show that overlapping speech occurs at dialog instances where certain affective states are changing. Our results allow the prediction of forthcoming threat of overlapping speech, and hence preventive measures, especially in professional environments like call-centers with human or automatic agents.","PeriodicalId":377891,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123541962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They define different types of roads including different principles for passing. On new roads with a high road function level, passing is safeguarded by passing lanes. However, passing lanes cannot be recommended as a standard on each road type. For roads with a lower road function level and on most of the existing rural road network, passing is permitted by using the oncoming traffic lane. The passing sight distance used today is based on a geometrical model which has been the subject of an empirical research in 1986. Because of the change in the vehicle fleet the passing sight distance model needs to be verified and updated. For this purpose, passing maneuvers are recorded by using a drone. The methodology allows capturing the entire passing maneuver including the approach of the opposing traffic. Thereby, the road geometry as well as traffic parameters (average annual daily traffic - AADT, heavy good vehicles - HGV) are considered. Overall, more than 1.100 passing maneuvers have been captured and analyzed. As a research result, recommendations for the required passing sight distance on single two lane rural roads will be given.","PeriodicalId":377891,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127290921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digital culture is claimed to be acquired by the members of modern societies in a smooth and seamless way the result of which is the permeability between human agents and non-human agents in the contexts of information processing and communicative interaction. The fuzzy borderlines within the digital environment are deemed to result in parallel manner of knowledge management as opposed to the traditionally constituted manner of linear processing. The paper elucidates the process in which traditional cultural narratives get fragmented while the members of the community get profoundly engaged in digital social environments to provide for a cognitive net of augmented virtual realities. The paper draws attention to parallel tendencies in the study of social cognition and points at a direction that necessitates a novel perception of digital culture and digital literacy.","PeriodicalId":377891,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)","volume":"107 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127292710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
