E-bookworms: ontology learning and maintenance through text mining
See the E-newsworms in action by following this link: a demo of Wilson Wong's PhD work Using Natural Language Processing and Statistical Analysis to automatically discover topics and concepts and the relationships between them using the WWW as a large knowledge base. Current project is to generate ontologies for chemical engineering risk management Using Social Network Analysis and Temporal-Spatial Logic to understand and visualise changes of concepts across geographical regions during certain time period.
Smart Home for aged care: a service-oriented ubiquitous computing environment To build a context-aware computing environment using existing service-oriented hardware components for smart homes (using the Atlas Platform). Intention recognition by tracking residents’ activities in the smart home and their interactions with robots and other smart devices. Virtualising the smart-home into the Second Life virtual space. Cognitive agents and robots Mapping low-level sensory input to high-level representation for communicable intelligence. Protocols that support flexible and robust agent communication and coordination Programming and reasoning paradigms (e.g. BDI) to enable agent teamwork and service composition, problem domain (Simulation League and Standard Platform League in RoboCup).
Love of programming is essential for these projects. A varity of languages are used, Web Scripting (Perl, Python, Php), XML, C++, Java ...
