Workshop on Situation Recognition by Mining Temporal Information

How can we harvest the temporal information from our environment, including the web, and create solutions to different situation recognition problems, i.e. small and big emergency or disaster situations of any kind? Relying on the omnipresent information and data available - are we able to create intelligent and assistive approaches that could support us in our everyday life?Based on the huge amount of available web data and data from web-connected devices, we should be able to derive relevant information to our advantage and most probably foreseen any epidemic or disaster situation. There are different methods and algorithms that enable the processing and mining of temporal information from the available temporal data.
