This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second
International Workshop on Activity Monitoring by Multiple Distributed Sensing, AMMDS …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in human behavior understanding
motivated by several societal needs that include security, natural interfaces, gaming …

As sensing technology becomes cheaper and more effective, large networks of intelligent
sensors with rich sensing modalities, such as video, will extend into busy large-scale …

In recent years, we have seen a significant research interest in a number of multimodal
sensing applications like surveillance, video ethnography, tele-presence, assisted living, life …

We begin by considering current shortfalls with conventional surveillance systems and
discuss the potential advantages of distributed, collaborative surveillance systems …

We propose a distributed recognition framework to classify continuous human actions using
a low-bandwidth wearable motion sensor network, called distributed sparsity classifier …

Advances in Internet-of-Things, artificial intelligence, and ubiquitous computing technologies
have contributed to building the next generation of context-aware heterogeneous systems …

We describe and evaluate a distributed architecture for the online recognition of user activity
sequences. In a lower layer, simple heterogeneous atomic activities were recognised on …

Smart spaces equipped with sensors and combined with learning are becoming
increasingly popular for many ubiquitous computing applications. However, application …

Context-aware systems have been investigated for quite a while, and there are many
aspects of such systems that are readily used today. Typical systems often provide …
