SAAM

At the SAAM H2020 project (Supporting Active Aging through Multimodal Coaching), where we developed a virtual assistant-coach that supports the aging population living at home. Our work focused on development of modeling and reasoning components of the coaching system, we prepared the modules for sleep quality, cooking activity, mobility and social activity. All modules were tested in real-life installations within the pilot study. In order to increase the effectiveness of coaching we have also developed a novel method for preference learning based on user’s feedback as reported for different coaching messages that were received by the users.
