Computing environment is moving towards human-centered designs instead of computer centered designs and human's tend to communicate wealth of information through affective states or expressions. Traditional Human Computer Interaction (HCI)…
Video photoplethysmography (vPPG) is an emerging method for non-invasive and convenient measurement of physiological signals, utilizing two primary approaches: remote video PPG (rPPG) and contact video PPG (cPPG). Monitoring vitals in…
This paper addresses a major challenge in acoustic event detection, in particular infant cry detection in the presence of other sounds and background noises: the lack of precise annotated data. We present two contributions for supervised…
Fetal ultrasounds are an essential part of prenatal care and can be used to estimate gestational age (GA). Accurate GA assessment is important for providing appropriate prenatal care throughout pregnancy and identifying complications such…
Breathing is one of the most important body functions because it provides it with oxygen, which is vital for energy production. In addition, the removal of carbon dioxide actively regulates the acid-base level, which is essential for the…
Respiratory illnesses are a significant global health burden. Respiratory illnesses, primarily Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), is the seventh leading cause of poor health worldwide and the third leading cause of death…
Infants born before 37 weeks of pregnancy are considered to be preterm. Typically, preterm infants have to be strictly monitored since they are highly susceptible to health problems like hypoxemia (low blood oxygen level), apnea,…
Improved surgical skill is generally associated with improved patient outcomes, although assessment is subjective; labour-intensive; and requires domain specific expertise. Automated data driven metrics can alleviate these difficulties, as…
Paediatric respiratory researchers have widely adopted the multiple-breath washout (MBW) test because it allows assessment of lung function in unsedated infants and is well suited to longitudinal studies of lung development and disease.…
Fetal lung maturity is a critical indicator for predicting neonatal outcomes and the need for post-natal intervention, especially for pregnancies affected by fetal growth restriction. Intra-voxel incoherent motion analysis has shown…
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the lower respiratory tract and naturally occurs in humans and animals including horses. The annotation of an asthma microscopy whole slide image (WSI) is an extremely labour-intensive task due…
In recent years, WiFi sensing has been recognized as a promising technology to bring respiratory monitoring into everyday homes, thanks to its contactless nature and ubiquitous availability. However, existing WiFi-based respiratory…
Numerous studies have highlighted that atypical brain development, particularly during infancy and toddlerhood, is linked to an increased likelihood of being diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental condition, such as autism. Accurate brain…
Breathing is a spontaneous but controllable body function that can be used for hands-free interaction. Our work introduces "iBreath", a novel system to detect breathing gestures similar to clicks using bio-impedance. We evaluated iBreath's…
Radio signals are sensitive to changes in the environment, which for example is reflected on the received signal strength (RSS) measurements of low-cost wireless devices. This information has been used effectively in the past years e.g. in…
Large vision-language models have achieved remarkable capabilities by training on massive internet-scale data, yet a fundamental asymmetry persists: while LLMs can leverage self-supervised pretraining on abundant text and image data, the…
4D Computed Tomography (4DCT) is widely used for many clinical applications such as radiotherapy treatment planning, PET and ventilation imaging. However, common 4DCT methods reconstruct multiple breath cycles into a single, arbitrary…
Tracking organ motion is important in image-guided interventions, but motion annotations are not always easily available. Thus, we propose Repetitive Motion Estimation Network (RMEN) to recover cardiac and respiratory signals. It learns the…
Real-time vital sign monitoring is gaining immense significance not only in the medical field but also in personal health management. Facing the needs of different application scenarios of the smart and healthy city in the future, the…
Video-based respiratory rate (RR) estimation is often unreliable due to inconsistent signal quality across extraction methods. We present a predictive, quality-aware framework that integrates heterogeneous signal sources with dynamic…
