Impact Conflict Detection of IoT Services in Multi-resident Smart Homes

We propose a novel impact conflict detection framework for IoT services in multi-resident smart homes. The proposed impact assessment model is developed based on the integral of a signal deviation strategy. We mine the residents’ previous service usage records to design a robust preference estimation model. We design an impact conflict detection approach using temporal proximity and preferential proximity techniques. Experimental results on real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
