• Abstract: Computing becomes increasingly mobile and pervasive today; these changes imply that applications and services must be aware of and adapt to their changing contexts in highly dynamic environments. Today, building context-aware systems is a complex task due to lack of an appropriate infrastructure support in intelligent environments. A context-aware infrastructure requires an appropriate context model to represent, manipulate and access context information. In this paper, we propose a formal context model based on ontology using OWL to address issues including semantic context representation, context reasoning and knowledge sharing, context classification, context dependency and quality of context. The main benefit of this model is the ability to reason about various contexts. Based on our context model, we also present a Service-Oriented Context-Aware Middleware (SOCAM) architecture for building of context-aware services.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly sophisticated and ubiquitous in natural language processing (NLP) applications. This paper presents a novel framework for contextual grounding in textual models, with a particular emphasis on the Context Representation stage. Our findings have significant implications for the deployment of LLMs in sensitive domains such as healthcare, legal systems, and social services.

  We present an investigation into how context should be incorporated into behaviour learning to improve generalisation. We introduce a neural network architecture, the Decision Adapter, which generates the weights of an adapter module and conditions the behaviour of an agent on the context information. We show that the Decision Adapter is a useful generalisation of a previously proposed architecture and empirically demonstrate that it results in superior generalisation performance.

All the considered architectures can perform in-context learning under a wider range of conditions than previously documented. Several attention alternatives are sometimes competitive with or better in-context learners than transformers.

  We propose a novel Contextual Latent Generative Model (Context-LGM), which considers the object-context relation and models it in a hierarchical manner. To infer contextual features, we reformulate the objective function of Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE), where contextual features are learned as a posterior conditioned distribution on the object. The effectiveness of our method is verified by state-of-the-art performance on two context-aware object recognition tasks.
