Aging and chronic conditions affect older adults' daily lives, making the early detection of developing health issues crucial. Weakness, which is common across many conditions, can subtly alter physical movements and daily activities.…
Non-invasive devices involved in the detection of drowsiness generally include infrared camera and Electroencephalography (EEG), of which sometimes are constrained in an actual real-life scenario deployments and implementations such as in…
Sleep posture analysis is widely used for clinical patient monitoring and sleep studies. Earlier research has revealed that sleep posture highly influences symptoms of diseases such as apnea and pressure ulcers. In this study, we propose a…
Passive and non-obtrusive health monitoring using wearables can potentially bring new insights into the user's health status throughout the day and may support clinical diagnosis and treatment. However, identifying segments of free-living…
We introduce a new dynamic model with the capability of recognizing both activities that an individual is performing as well as where that ndividual is located. Our model is novel in that it utilizes a dynamic graphical model to jointly…
Sleep is among the most important factors affecting one's daily performance, well-being, and life quality. Nevertheless, it became possible to measure it in daily life in an unobtrusive manner with wearable devices. Rather than camera…
Clinical sleep analysis require manual analysis of sleep patterns for correct diagnosis of sleep disorders. However, several studies have shown significant variability in manual scoring of clinically relevant discrete sleep events, such as…
Markerless estimation of 3D Kinematics has the great potential to clinically diagnose and monitor movement disorders without referrals to expensive motion capture labs; however, current approaches are limited by performing multiple…
We propose a Bayesian covariate-dependent anti-logistic circadian model for analyzing activity data collected via wrist-worn wearable devices. The proposed approach integrates covariates into the modeling of the amplitude and phase…
The majority of Americans fail to achieve recommended levels of physical activity, which leads to numerous preventable health problems such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart diseases. This has generated substantial interest in monitoring…
The importance of sleep is paramount for maintaining physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. Though the relationship between sleep and physical activity is known to be important, it is not yet fully understood. The explosion in popularity…
