OBJECTIVES: Remote assessment of gait in patients' homes has become a valuable tool for monitoring the progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, these measurements are often not as accurate or reliable as clinical evaluations because it is ch...
BACKGROUND: Application of machine learning for classifying human behavior is increasingly common as access to raw accelerometer data improves. The aims of this scoping review are (1) to examine if machine-learning techniques can accurately identify ...
Poor Medication adherence causes significant economic impact resulting in hospital readmission, hospital visits and other healthcare costs. The authors developed a smartwatch application and a cloud based data pipeline for developing a user-friendly ...
Cricket fast bowlers are at a high risk of injury occurrence, which has previously been shown to be correlated to bowling workloads. This study aimed to develop and test an algorithm that can automatically, reliably and accurately detect bowling deli...
Human activity recognition (HAR) has become an increasingly popular application of machine learning across a range of domains. Typically the HAR task that a machine learning algorithm is trained for requires separating multiple activities such as wal...
Technological advancements are the main drivers of the healthcare industry as it has a high impact on delivering the best patient care. Recent years witnessed unprecedented growth in the number of medical equipment manufactured to aid high-quality pa...
In the last few years, the importance of measuring gait characteristics has increased tenfold due to their direct relationship with various neurological diseases. As patients suffering from Parkinson's disease (PD) are more prone to a movement disord...
Stress is one of the biggest problems in modern society. It may not be possible for people to perceive if they are under high stress or not. It is important to detect stress early and unobtrusively. In this context, stress detection can be considered...
