- | Dies ist ein Wissensrepräsentations-Thema. Basierend auf einem bestehenden Wissensgraphen mit Produktinformationen sollen weitere ernährungsspezifische Informationen wie z.B. Substitute für Rezeptzutaten oder Rezepte für spezielle Ernährungsgewohnheiten generiert werden. Diese Informationen müssen aus bestehenden web-Quellen extrahiert und mit dem Wissensgraphen verknüpft werden. Die Informationen sollen dann in einer Smartphone-App (Android) visualisiert werden. Dabei kann auf bestehenden Apps aufgebaut werden. | + | Contact: [[team: |

- | Contact: [[team: | + | In this thesis, the goal is to make a robotic system learn new objects automatically. |
+ | The system should be able to generate the necessary models required for re-detecting it again and also consult online information sources to automatically acquire knowledge about it. | ||
- | == Sprachauswahl für Shopping Assistenten (BA Thesis) == | + | The focus of the thesis would be two-fold: |
+ | * Develop methods to automatically infer the object class of new objects. This would include perceiving it with state of the art sensors, constructing a 3d model of it and then infer the object class from online information sources. | ||
+ | * In the second step the system should also infer factual knowledge about the object from the internet and assert it into a robotic knowledgebase. Such knowledge could for example include the category of this product, typical object properties like its weight or typical location and much more. | ||

- | == Situational awareness | + | == Integration von Nährwertangaben für Rezepte |
- | This is a knowledge representation topic including knowledge graphs. The idea is so link external Web-knowledge to an existing knowledge framework in order to include situational awareness so that a robot acting in a household environment can infer what an object is used for in a given situation. | + | In dieser Arbeit soll eine bestehende Website mit Nährwertangaben und Zusatzfunktionalität zu Produkten um eine Nährwertangabe zu Rezepten erweitert werden. Es handelt sich um folgende website: productkg.informatik.uni-bremen.de |
- | A result would be that a spoon next to a bowl with cereal would be used for eating while a spoon on a stove next to a pot would be used for stirring. | + | Die Aufgaben dazu sind: |
