| Abstract | An important theoretical topic in assistive environments is reasoning about temporal patterns, that represent the sequential output of various sensors, and that can give us information about the health and activities of humans and the state of the environment. The recent growth in the quantity and quality of sensors for assistive environments has made it possible to create large databases of temporal patterns, that store sequences of observations obtained from such sensors over large time intervals. A topic of significant interest is being able to search such large databases so as to identify content of interest, for example activities of a certain type, or information about a patient's well-being. In this paper, we study two different approaches for conducting such searches: an exemplar-based approach, where we describe what we are looking for by giving an example, and a model-based approach, where we describe what we are looking for via a generative model. In particular, we describe the two different approaches, and we identify some important pros and cons for each approach. We also perform a comparative evaluation of exemplar-based search using dynamic time warping (DTW), and model-based search using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), on large real datasets. In our experiments, when the number of training objects per model is sufficiently high, model-based search using HMMs produces more accurate search results than exemplar-based search using DTW. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
