Evaluating AAL Systems
through Competitive Benchmarking

We are pleased to announce the second EvAAL Competition. EvAAL is a newborn initiative (developed as a project under the AALOA association) that aims at bringing together both academic and industrial research communities to work together on challenging and open problems in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL), with the purpose of evaluating different approaches and envisioning new research opportunities.
The competition comprises two tracks and a final workshop:
Track 1 – Indoor Localization and Tracking for AAL
Localization is a key component for achieving context-awareness. Recent years have witnessed an increasing trend of location-based services and applications. In most cases, however, location information is limited by the accessibility to Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), largely unavailable for indoor environments. The aim of this competition is to award the best indoor localization system from the point of view of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) applications.
Track 2 – Activity Recognition for AAL
The automatic and unobtrusive identification of user’s activities is one of the challenging goals of context-aware computing. Real-time monitoring of human movements could be a useful tool for many purposes and future applications such as lifelog, healthcare or entertainment. The aim of this competition is to award the best activity recognition system from the point of view of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) applications.
Submission deadline postponed by one week
Because of Easter holidays, the submission deadline is postponed by one week. Remember to submit your proposal by April 15th!
Submission is managed trough Easychair
