Human motion plays an important role in many fields. Large databases exist that store and make available recordings of human motions. However, annotating each motion with multiple labels is a cumbersome and error-prone process. This…
Using supervised machine learning approaches to recognize human activities from on-body wearable accelerometers generally requires a large amount of labelled data. When ground truth information is not available, too expensive, time…
We present a model-based approach to learning robust runtime monitors for autonomous systems. Runtime monitors play a crucial role in raising the level of assurance by observing system behavior and predicting potential safety violations. In…
Actigraphy is widely used in sleep studies but lacks a universal unsupervised algorithm for sleep/wake identification. In this study, we proposed a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based unsupervised algorithm that can automatically and…
Mobile devices have been manufactured and enhanced at growing rates in the past decades. While this growth has significantly evolved the capability of these devices, their security has been falling behind. This contrast in development…
1. Electronic telemetry is frequently used to document animal movement through time. Methods that can identify underlying behaviors driving specific movement patterns can help us understand how and why animals use available space, thereby…
This article aims to present a novel sensor-based continuous hand gesture recognition algorithm by long short-term memory (LSTM). Only the basic accelerators and/or gyroscopes are required by the algorithm. Given a sequence of input sensory…
As nowadays most web application requests originate from mobile devices, authentication of mobile users is essential in terms of security considerations. To this end, recent approaches rely on machine learning techniques to analyze various…
In this paper, a new behavioral biometric password based on haptic interaction is described. This "haptic password" system is built on a device that has a force-sensitive screen. The user authentication process leverages maximal overlap…
Recommender systems help users find relevant items of interest based on the past preferences of those users. In many domains, however, the tastes and preferences of users change over time due to a variety of factors and recommender systems…
Cyber threat intelligence is one of the emerging areas of focus in information security. Much of the recent work has focused on rule-based methods and detection of network attacks using Intrusion Detection algorithms. In this paper we…
Background: Biomedical data are usually collections of longitudinal data assessed at certain points in time. Clinical observations assess the presences and severity of symptoms, which are the basis for description and modeling of disease…
Wearable devices including accelerometers are increasingly being used to collect high-frequency human activity data in situ. There is tremendous potential to use such data to inform medical decision making and public health policies.…
Fingerprint authentication is a popular security mechanism for smartphones and laptops. However, its adoption in web and cloud environments has been limited due to privacy concerns over storing and processing biometric data on servers. This…
The field of touch-based authentication has been rapidly developing over the last decade, creating a fragmented and difficult-to-navigate area for researchers and application developers alike due to the variety of methods investigated. In…
The main focus of this work is on developing models for the activity profile of a terrorist group, detecting sudden spurts and downfalls in this profile, and, in general, tracking it over a period of time. Toward this goal, a $d$-state…
Smartphones and tablets have become ubiquitous in our daily lives. Smartphones, in particular, have become more than personal assistants. These devices have provided new avenues for consumers to play, work, and socialize whenever and…
