In the Smart Technologies Research Group we apply Information and Communication Technologies (for example, devices within the Internet of Things, machine learning, privacy enhancing technologies or process mining) in a wide range of areas: from health and quality of life to intelligent transport, smart classrooms, assisted living environments, etc. The application scenarios range from context-aware environments to complex, cognitive systems. In addition, we also focus on network and data security in smart technologies as well as privacy and related ethical issues.
