Abstract
Smart home environments often need personalized requirements based on existing service products. Requirements under the environment may change at any time, even while services are correctly provided, since both caregivers and residents eventually diversify their intentions. In this paper, a situation-theoretic framework to infer human intentions is presented through a smart-home demonstration aimed at supporting independent living of elderly people. By analyzing experimental sensor data collected from a real-life smart home, differences and similarities between three detected intentions were intensely discussed.
