Wearable devices record physiological and behavioral signals that can improve health predictions. While foundation models are increasingly used for such predictions, they have been primarily applied to low-level sensor data, despite…
Stress, anxiety, and nervousness are all high-risk health states in everyday life. Previously, stress levels were determined by speaking with people and gaining insight into what they had experienced recently or in the past. Typically,…
Psychological trait estimation from external factors such as movement and appearance is a challenging and long-standing problem in psychology, and is principally based on the psychological theory of embodiment. To date, attempts to tackle…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system affecting over 2.5 million people globally. In-clinic six-minute walk test (6MWT) is a widely used objective measure to…
Autism diagnosis presents a major challenge due to the vast heterogeneity of the condition and the elusive nature of early detection. Atypical gait and gesture patterns are dominant behavioral characteristics of autism and can provide…
We introduce statistical methods for predicting the types of human activity at sub-second resolution using triaxial accelerometry data. The major innovation is that we use labeled activity data from some subjects to predict the activity…
The ubiquity of personal digital devices offers unprecedented opportunities to study human behavior. Current state-of-the-art methods quantify physical activity using 'activity counts,' a measure which overlooks specific types of physical…
We present a system for identifying humans by their walking sounds. This problem is also known as acoustic gait recognition. The goal of the system is to analyse sounds emitted by walking persons (mostly the step sounds) and identify those…
We consider the problem of predicting an individual's identity from accelerometry data collected during walking. In a previous paper we introduced an approach that transforms the accelerometry time series into an image by constructing its…
Diabetes affects over 400 million people and is among the leading causes of morbidity worldwide. Identification of high-risk individuals can support early diagnosis and prevention of disease development through lifestyle changes. However,…
Over the past few years, the division of gait phases has emerged as a complex area of research that carries significant importance for various applications in the field of gait technologies. The accurate partitioning of gait phases plays a…
Cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death globally, is an age-related disease. Understanding the morphological and functional changes of the heart during ageing is a key scientific question, the answer to which will help us define…
Physical activity is recognized as an essential component of overall health. One measure of physical activity, the step count, is well known as a predictor of long-term morbidity and mortality. Step Counting (SC) is the automated counting…
Estimation of temporospatial clinical features of gait (CFs), such as step count and length, step duration, step frequency, gait speed, and distance traveled, is an important component of community-based mobility evaluation using wearable…
The human gait is a complex interplay between the neuronal and the muscular systems, reflecting an individual's neurological and physiological condition. This makes gait analysis a valuable tool for biomechanics and medical experts.…
