The development of activity recognition based on multi-modal data makes it possible to reduce human intervention in the process of monitoring. This paper proposes an efficient and cost-effective multi-modal sensing framework for activity monitoring, ...
Supporting the elderly to maintain their independence, safety, and well-being through Active Assisted Living (AAL) technologies, is gaining increasing momentum. Recently, Non-intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) approaches have become the focus of these ...
Wrist-worn accelerometers are more comfortable and yield greater compliance than hip-worn devices, making them attractive for free-living activity assessments. However, intricate wrist movements may require more complex predictive models than those a...
Tertiary disease prevention for dementia focuses on improving the quality of life of the patient. The quality of life of people with dementia (PwD) and their caregivers is hampered by the presence of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia ...
A means of quantifying continuous, free-living energy expenditure (EE) would advance the study of bioenergetics. The aim of this study was to apply a non-linear, machine learning algorithm (random forest) to predict minute level EE for a range of act...
Application of machine learning techniques has the potential to yield unseen insights into movement and permits visualisation of complex behaviours and tangible profiles. The aim of this study was to identify profiles of relative motor competence (MC...

Constructing statistical models using personal sensor data could allow for tracking health status over time, thereby enabling the possibility of early intervention. The goal of this study was to use machine learning algorithms to classify patient-rep...
Fast bowlers are at a high risk of overuse injuries. There are specific bowling frequency ranges known to have negative or protective effects on fast bowlers. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) can classify movements in sports, however, some commercia...
