Personal Analytics

''Intel Labs showcases how a person can be helped by a digital assistant in both proactive and reactive ways. In both modes, back end servers deliver analytics that not only recognize the person, but are also able to infer – using machine learning algorithms -- what they may need or want based on the context of the situation and environment.

In the reactive mode, a semantic life-log database is used to provide contextual responses for user queries through a user’s mobile device. Voluntary prompts through the user’s device provide information of interest and reminders to the user based on the current context and life-log knowledge. For example, if the daily medication is forgotten, the technology will alert the user.''
