-== App zur Generierung von Ernährungsempfehlungen (BA Thesis) == +Wissensrepräsentation: Semantische Integration der saref Ontology (https://ontology.tno.nl/saref/) für smart devices in SOMA (https://ease-crc.github.io/soma/). Ziel dabei ist es, dass Roboter anhand von ein paar Beispielszenarien (z.B. Zubereitung von Popcorn/ Pizza) Fehler autonom finden können (z.B. Electricity ist aus -> deswegen wird der Herd nicht warm und Popcorn poppt nicht).
- +
-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. +

-Weiterentwicklung eines Produktinformationssystems im Einzelhandel für Smartphones (Android) um eine Sprachauswahl. Anzeige der jeweiligen Informationen in der gewünschten Sprache. +In dieser Thesis soll untersucht werden, ob die Autonomie von Robotern durch Integration von Wissen zu Aufbewahrungsorten von Produkten aus dem Internet erhöht werden kann. Es gibt verschiedene websites, die Wissen dazu bereitstellen. Dieses Wissen soll von den websites abgefragt und anschließend sinnvoll ontologisiert werden. Anhand verschiedener Fragen werden die Ergebnisse evaluiert (Menge der erworbenen Informationen/ Nutzen der Information, v.a. für autonome Roboter...)

-== Situational awareness in kitchen environments (MA Thesis) == 
- 
-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. 
- 
-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. 
- 
-requirements: 
-  * Work with KnowRob knowledge processing framework 
-  * Work with knowledge graphs and Linked Data to create a situational awareness knowledge graph that can be linked to KnowRob 
-  * Implement reasoning about situations (based on perceived environment) and object use
