Systems and methods for probabilistic semantic sensing in a sensory network are disclosed. The system receives raw sensor data from a plurality of sensors and generates semantic data including sensed events. The system correlates the semantic data based on classifiers to generate aggregations of semantic data. Further, the system analyzes the aggregations of semantic data with a probabilistic engine to produce a corresponding plurality of derived events each of which includes a derived probability. The system generates a first derived event, including a first derived probability, that is generated based on a plurality of probabilities that respectively represent a confidence of an associated semantic datum to enable at least one application to perform a service based on the plurality of derived events.

Systems and methods for probabilistic semantic sensing in a sensory network

Methods, devices, systems, and non-transitory process-readable storage media for controlling lighting nodes of a lighting system associated with a lighting infrastructure based on composited lighting models. An embodiment method performed by a processor of a computing device may include operations for obtaining a plurality of lighting model outputs generated by lighting control algorithms that utilize sensor data obtained from one or more sensor nodes within the lighting infrastructure, combining the plurality of lighting model outputs in an additive fashion to generate a composited lighting model, calculating lighting parameters for a lighting node within the lighting infrastructure based on the composited lighting model and other factors, and generating a lighting control command for configuring the lighting node within the lighting infrastructure using the calculated lighting parameters. The method may be performed by any combination of lighting node(s), sensor node(s), a remote server, and/or other devices within the lighting infrastructure.
