Personal devices are omnipresent in our lives, seamlessly monitoring our activities, from smart rings tracking sleep patterns to smartwatches keeping an eye on missed heartbeats. The rich data streams from such devices fuel advanced…
Hand washing is a crucial part of personal hygiene. Hand washing detection is a relevant topic for wearable sensing with applications in the medical and professional fields. Hand washing detection can be used to aid workers in complying…
Over the last decade there has been high interest in home sleep monitoring among research community and society. Smartphone-based sleep monitoring seems to be especially attractive. However, smartphone should be able to register…
Stuttering affects approximately 1% of the global population, impacting communication and quality of life. While recent advances in deep learning have pushed the boundaries of automatic speech dysfluency detection, rule-based approaches…
Social media enjoys a growing popularity as a platform to seek and share personal health information. For sleep studies using data from social media, most researchers focused on inferring sleep-related artifacts from self-reported anecdotal…
Cognitive radio has been proposed to alleviate the scarcity of available spectrum caused by the significant demand for wideband services and the fragmentation of spectrum resources. However, sensing performance is quite poor due to the low…
SleepioTM is a digital mobile phone and web platform that uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to improve sleep in people with sleep difficulty. As part of this process, Sleepio captures data about the sleep behaviour of…
Self-touch gestures (e.g., nuanced facial touches and subtle finger scratches) provide rich insights into human behaviors, from hygiene practices to health monitoring. However, existing approaches fall short in detecting such micro gestures…
We have performed cough detection based on measurements from an accelerometer attached to the patient's bed. This form of monitoring is less intrusive than body-attached accelerometer sensors, and sidesteps privacy concerns encountered when…
Structured reporting (SR) and artificial intelligence (AI) may transform how radiologists interact with imaging studies. This prospective study (July to December 2024) evaluated the impact of three reporting modes: free-text (FT),…
Rough sleeping is a chronic problem faced by some of the most disadvantaged people in modern society. This paper describes work carried out in partnership with Homeless Link, a UK-based charity, in developing a data-driven approach to…
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…
Chest X-ray is a commonly used tool during triage, diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases. In resource-constricted settings, optimizing this resource can lead to valuable cost savings for the health care system and the patients as…
In recent years, smart meters have been widely adopted by electricity suppliers to improve the management of the smart grid system. These meters usually collect energy consumption data at a very low frequency (every 30min), enabling…
Cases of laryngeal cancer are predicted to rise significantly in the coming years. Current diagnostic pathways are inefficient, putting undue stress on both patients and the medical system. Artificial intelligence offers a promising…
We present an intelligent interactive nightstand mounted on a mobile robot, to aid the elderly in their homes using physical, tactile and visual percepts. We show the integration of three different sensing modalities for controlling the…
Perceptual audio quality measurement systems algorithmically analyze the output of audio processing systems to estimate possible perceived quality degradation using perceptual models of human audition. In this manner, they save the time and…
Artificial intelligence (AI) models to automatically classify skin lesions from dermatology images have shown promising performance but also susceptibility to bias by skin tone. The most common way of representing skin tone information is…
Patients with sleep disorders can better manage their lifestyle if they know about their special situations. Detection of such sleep disorders is usually possible by analyzing a number of vital signals that have been collected from the…
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) provides information on protein expression in tissue sections and is commonly used to support pathology diagnosis and disease triage. While AI models for H\&E-stained slides show promise, their applicability to…
