In this paper, we present a novel approach for realising the vision of ambient intelligence in ubiquitous computing environments (UCEs). This approach is based on embedding intelligent agents in UCEs. These agents use type-2 fuzzy systems which are able to handle the different sources of uncertainty and imprecision in UCEs to give a good response. We have developed a novel system for learning and adapting the type-2 fuzzy agents so that they can realise the vision of ambient intelligence by providing a seamless, unobtrusive, adaptive and responsive intelligence in the environment that supports the activities of the user. The user’s behaviours and preferences for controlling the UCE are learnt online in a non-intrusive and life long learning mode so as to control the UCE on the user’s behalf. We have performed unique experiments in which the type-2 intelligent agent has learnt and adapted online to the user’s …
