PURPOSE: To use machine learning to examine health equity and clinical outcomes in patients who experienced a nurse sensitive indicator (NSI) event, defined as a fall, a hospital-acquired pressure injury (HAPI) or a hospital-acquired infection (HAI).
BACKGROUND: Falls among the elderly are a major societal problem. While observations of medium-distance walking using inertial sensors identified potential fall predictors, classifying individuals at risk based on single gait cycles remains elusive. ...
BACKGROUND: Falls and their consequences are a serious public health problem worldwide. Each year, 37.3 million falls requiring medical attention occur. Therefore, the analysis of fall risk is of great importance for prevention. Artificial intelligen...
The elderly population is growing rapidly in the world and falls are becoming a big problem for society. Currently, clinical assessments of gait and posture include functional evaluations, objective, and subjective scales. They are considered the gol...

BACKGROUND: Identifying patients at high risk of falling is crucial in implementing effective fall prevention programs. While the integration of information systems is becoming more widespread in the healthcare industry, it poses a significant challe...
With technological advancements in diagnostic imaging, smart sensing, and wearables, a multitude of heterogeneous sources or modalities are available to proactively monitor the health of the elderly. Due to the increasing risks of falls among older a...
Falls are a significant ongoing public health concern for older adults. At present, few studies have concurrently explored the influence of multiple measures when seeking to determine which variables are most predictive of fall risks. As such, this c...
What is the optimal penalty for errors in infant skill learning? Behavioral analyses indicate that errors are frequent but trivial as infants acquire foundational skills. In learning to walk, for example, falling is commonplace but appears to incur o...
Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has gained significant attention due to its broad range of applications, such as healthcare, industrial work safety, activity assistance, and driver monitoring. Most prior HAR systems are based on recorded sensor data...
