In the case of tasks involving human-robot collaboration, the robot must effectively convey and interpret communicative actions about the current and intended state of the task environment and coordinate its behavior with those of its collaborators, human and otherwise.

We present such a framework, inspired by Theory of Mind and making use of perspective taking, and show how it could be used to support several collaborative functions, including detection of opportunities to assist.","PeriodicalId":426543,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128093270","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}

Given the complexity of the process, such users need some support to achieve their goal of knowledge extraction. This paper introduces KDDesigner, a web-based semantic-driven tool aimed at supporting users in the collaborative design of a KDD process.

Particularly, in Twitter, text-based tweets in the limit of 140 characters are efficiently used in communicating with followers, but sometimes are not long enough to clearly express the author's own feeling or emotions. To deal with the author's feelings, we suggest enhancing a text tweet with an appropriate image, along with/without text. To generate an image from the text, we first analyze the text tweet. The morpheme analyzer detects the key words and then the thumbnail images related to those keywords are retrieved. The author can select appropriate images for background, avatars and objects. An intermediate image is then generated. After that, our emotion classifier determines the author's feeling in the text tweet using SVM (Support Vector Machine). Based on the emotion in the tweet, we use our own re-coloring method on the generated image. Our augmented visual communication method is implemented on the smart phone and the author can post her own visual tweet with or without text. The survey result shows that our method of generating visual tweets was favorable and users found the function enjoyable.","PeriodicalId":426543,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129321241","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}

The interpretation of the sensed information greatly depends on the context and for efficient processing and communication, context awareness can play a major role. In most of the existing WSN protocols, context awareness is exploited in a single dimension and is captured either at the application layer or at the routing layer using a single context parameter. In this paper, we develop a new WSN context model to efficiently capture multiple context parameters in multiple dimensions (i.e. context from/to different layers of the network stack) and adjust the network behavior accordingly while simultaneously balancing the network load. The new model not only considers context parameters reflecting run-time application demands from a node, but also takes into consideration the current state of the node as well as the state and demands of neighboring nodes (inter-nodal context sharing). The new model: (a) represents context demands from each layer; (b) reflects the current individual state of each layer; (c) communicates (a) and (b) to the neighboring nodes to impact the decision process; and (d) locally distributes available resources aiming to achieve an optimal load balance. We show the application of this model in realizing a cross-layer optimized protocol for routing multi-hop and multi-packet traffic in WSNs.","PeriodicalId":426543,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130522711","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}
