A cloud-based bayesian smart agent architecture for internet-of-things applications

Abstract

The Internet-of-Things (IoT) connects devices with embedded sensors to the Internet and is expected to grow at a spectacular rate. IoT will drive increased quality of life for individual as well as spur business growth and efficiency gains in industry. Actions based on real-time information, better decision making and remote diagnostics are some key areas where IoT can make a difference. This paper presents a smart agent architecture for the Internet-of-Things based on Bayesian Network technology that can be used for automation, notification, diagnostics and troubleshooting use cases.
