Driver drowsiness is a major cause of traffic accidents worldwide, posing a serious threat to public safety. Vision-based driver monitoring systems often rely on fixed Eye Aspect Ratio (EAR) and Mouth Aspect Ratio (MAR) thresholds; however,…
A sleepy driver is arguably much more dangerous on the road than the one who is speeding as he is a victim of microsleeps. Automotive researchers and manufacturers are trying to curb this problem with several technological solutions that…
The pairwise maximum entropy model, also known as the Ising model, has been widely used to analyze the collective activity of neurons. However, controversy persists in the literature about seemingly inconsistent findings, whose significance…
Identifying the salience (i.e. importance) of discourse units is an important task in language understanding. While events play important roles in text documents, little research exists on analyzing their saliency status. This paper…
Polyphonic Sound Event Detection (SED) in real-world recordings is a challenging task because of the dynamic polyphony level, intensity, and duration of sound events. Current polyphonic SED systems fail to model the temporal structure of…
Motivation: Biomedical event detection is fundamental for information extraction in molecular biology and biomedical research. The detected events form the central basis for comprehensive biomedical knowledge fusion, facilitating the…
Sleep apnea (SA) is a type of sleep disorder characterized by snoring and chronic sleeplessness, which can lead to serious conditions such as high blood pressure, heart failure, and cardiomyopathy (enlargement of the muscle tissue of the…
Objective: This work proposes a semi-supervised training approach for detecting lung and heart sounds simultaneously with only one trained model and in invariance to the auscultation point. Methods: We use open-access data from the 2016…
While depression has been studied via multimodal non-verbal behavioural cues, head motion behaviour has not received much attention as a biomarker. This study demonstrates the utility of fundamental head-motion units, termed \emph{kinemes},…
Detection of common events and scenes from audio is useful for extracting and understanding human contexts in daily life. Prior studies have shown that leveraging knowledge from a relevant domain is beneficial for a target acoustic event…
Traditional security detection methods face three key challenges: inadequate data collection that misses critical security events, resource-intensive monitoring systems, and poor detection algorithms with high false positive rates. We…
In this paper, we propose a novel method and a practical approach to predicting early onsets of sleep syndromes, including restless leg syndrome, insomnia, based on an algorithm that is comprised of two modules. A Fast Fourier Transform is…
This paper focuses on the weakly-supervised audio-visual video parsing task, which aims to recognize all events belonging to each modality and localize their temporal boundaries. This task is challenging because only overall labels…
Dream narratives provide a unique window into human cognition and emotion, yet their systematic analysis using artificial intelligence has been underexplored. We introduce DreamNet, a novel deep learning framework that decodes semantic…
Sleep scoring is a necessary and time-consuming task in sleep studies. In animal models (such as mice) or in humans, automating this tedious process promises to facilitate long-term studies and to promote sleep biology as a data-driven…
Monitoring the dynamics of traffic in major corridors can provide invaluable insight for traffic planning purposes. An important requirement for this monitoring is the availability of methods to automatically detect major traffic events and…
Automatic sleep staging is a critical task in healthcare due to the global prevalence of sleep disorders. This study focuses on single-channel electroencephalography (EEG), a practical and widely available signal for automatic sleep…
Detecting anomalies in human mobility is essential for applications such as public safety and urban planning. While traditional anomaly detection methods primarily focus on individual movement patterns (e.g., a child should stay at home at…
Monitoring respiration parameters such as respiratory rate could be beneficial to understand the impact of training on equine health and performance and ultimately improve equine welfare. In this work, we compare deep learning-based methods…
Medical event prediction (MEP) is a fundamental task in the medical domain, which needs to predict medical events, including medications, diagnosis codes, laboratory tests, procedures, outcomes, and so on, according to historical medical…
