This paper presents a novel approach to evaluating back support exoskeletons (BSEs) in workplace settings addressing the limitations of traditional methods like electromyography (EMG), which are impractical due to their sensitivity to…
Driver drowsiness detection using videos/images is one of the most essential areas in today's time for driver safety. The development of deep learning techniques, notably Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), applied in computer vision…
With the advent of Internet of Thing (IoT), and ubiquitous data collected every moment by either portable (smart phone) or fixed (sensor) devices, it is important to gain insights and meaningful information from the sensor data in…
Burnout is an occupational syndrome that, like many other professions, affects the majority of software engineers. Past research studies showed important trends, including an increasing use of machine learning techniques to allow for an…
Human motion detection is getting considerable attention in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven healthcare systems. Human motion can be used to provide remote healthcare solutions for vulnerable people by identifying particular…
The advent of IoT has enabled the design of connected and integrated smart health monitoring systems. These smart health monitoring systems could be realized in a smart home context to render long-term care to the elderly population. In…
Healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, face elevated occupational stress, a concern amplified during the COVID-19 pandemic. While wearable sensors offer promising avenues for real-time stress monitoring, existing studies often lack…
Depression disorder is a serious health condition that has affected the lives of millions of people around the world. Diagnosis of depression is a challenging practice that relies heavily on subjective studies and, in most cases, suffers…
Driver monitoring systems (DMS) are a key component of vehicular safety and essential for the transition from semiautonomous to fully autonomous driving. A key task for DMS is to ascertain the cognitive state of a driver and to determine…
Depression commonly co-occurs with neurodegenerative disorders like Multiple Sclerosis (MS), yet the potential of speech-based Artificial Intelligence for detecting depression in such contexts remains unexplored. This study examines the…
Drowsiness, which is the state when drivers do not have scheduled breaks while traveling long distances, is the main reason behind serious motorway accidents. Accordingly, experts claim that drowsy state is hard to be recognized early…
A practical way of detecting sleep stages has become more necessary as we begin to learn about the vast effects that sleep has on people's lives. The current methods of sleep stage detection are expensive, invasive to a person's sleep, and…
Recently, the scientific progress of Advanced Driver Assistance System solutions (ADAS) has played a key role in enhancing the overall safety of driving. ADAS technology enables active control of vehicles to prevent potentially risky…
Driver drowsiness is one of main factors leading to road fatalities and hazards in the transportation industry. Electroencephalography (EEG) has been considered as one of the best physiological signals to detect drivers drowsy states, since…
Gaze-based virtual keyboards provide an effective interface for text entry by eye movements. The efficiency and usability of these keyboards have traditionally been evaluated with conventional text entry performance measures such as words…
For quantitative evaluation of sleep disturbances, a noninvasive monitoring system is developed by introducing an event-based method. We observe sleeping in home context and classify the sleep disturbances into three types of events: motion…
The ongoing trend towards Industry 4.0 has revolutionised ordinary workplaces, profoundly changing the role played by humans in the production chain. Research on ergonomics in industrial settings mainly focuses on reducing the operator's…
Evaluating human-computer interaction is essential as a broadening population uses machines, sometimes in sensitive contexts. However, traditional evaluation methods may fail to combine real-time measures, an "objective" approach and data…
The outbreak of COVID-19 has forced everyone to stay indoors, fabricating a significant drop in physical activeness. Our work is constructed upon the idea to formulate a backbone mechanism, to detect levels of activeness in real-time, using…
About 30% of all traffic crash fatalities in the United States involve drunk drivers, making the prevention of drunk driving paramount to vehicle safety in the US and other locations which have a high prevalence of driving while under the…
