Book Smart Wearable Devices in Healthcare   Methodologies  Applications  and Algorithms

Download or read book Smart Wearable Devices in Healthcare Methodologies Applications and Algorithms written by Chang Yan and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-12-14 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wearable health devices have been an emerging technology that enables an ambulatory acquisition of physiological signals to monitor health status over a long time (hours/days/weeks/years) inside and outside clinical environments. Big data and deep learning, in particular, are receiving a lot of attention in this rapidly growing digital health community. A key benefit of deep learning is to analyze and learn massive amounts of data, which makes it especially valuable in healthcare since raw data is largely gathered from personalized wearable health devices. A wide range of users may benefit from unobstructed and even remote monitoring of pertinent or vital signs, which makes it easier to detect life-threatening diseases early, track the progression of pathologies and stress levels, evaluate the efficacy of therapies, provide low-cost and reliable diagnoses, etc. Today’s personal health devices have provided an amazing insight into people’s health and wellness, which allow clinicians to use these smart wearables to collect and analyze measuring data like electroencephalogram (EEG), electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), respiration, heart rate, temperature level, blood oxygen, and blood pressure for health monitoring or clinical trials. This Research Topic mainly focuses on the technical revolution in wearable health systems, which aims to design more smart and useful wearables, contributing to a substantial change in the methodologies, applications, and algorithms of machine learning for wearable health devices. With the help of deep learning and sensor fusion capabilities from wearable health platforms, this data will be used more effectively, which can help to construct smart, novel, specific solutions to improve the quality of healthcare and capabilities of utilizing new deep learning technologies.

Book Benefit from unobtrusive contexts  Towards the recognition of short and non periodic activities

Download or read book Benefit from unobtrusive contexts Towards the recognition of short and non periodic activities written by Andreas Jahn and published by kassel university press GmbH. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context-aware systems can be used in a multitude of scenarios and applications. Examples include a pedestrian safety system which can help to detect a potential upcoming accident based on the knowledge of the pedestrian’s activity. In the field of human activity recognition, a majority of research focuses on long-lasting and continuous activities, such as walking or attending a dinner. Yet, the recognition of short and non-periodic activities, such as stepping onto the road, is still poorly understood. Due to the non-periodic nature, missing or incorrect recognitions of such activities imply that the entire activity is not recognized and remains unknown. This thesis focuses on short and non-periodic activities, gives a definition and investigates three challenges in their recognition: inconsistent sensor data, overrepresentation of periodic activities and evaluation of the recognition. For each challenge a possible solution is proposed. It is shown that applying these solutions addresses the challenges and improves the recognition rates of short and non-periodic activities up to 20%.
