Artificial Neural Network for in-Bed Posture Classification Using Bed-Sheet Pressure Sensors.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Pressure ulcer prevention is a vital procedure for patients undergoing long-term hospitalization. A human body lying posture (HBLP) monitoring system is essential to reschedule posture change for patients. Video surveillance, the conventional method ...

Pressure redistributing in-seat movement activities by persons with spinal cord injury over multiple epochs.

PloS one
Pressure ulcers, by definition, are caused by external forces on the tissues, often in the regions of bony prominences. Wheelchair users are at risk to develop sitting-acquired pressure ulcers, which occur in the regions of the ischial tuberosities, ...

Application of the SeDeM Expert System in Studies for Direct Compression Suitability on Mixture of Rhodiola Extract and an Excipient.

AAPS PharmSciTech
The SeDeM expert system is used to reveal direct compression (DC) suitability of the active ingredients and excipients in preformulation. In this study, the system was used to predict compressibility of rhodiola extract (RhE) and its mixture with exc...

A convolutional neural network Cascade for plantar pressure images registration.

Gait & posture
BACKGROUND: Plantar pressure image (PPI) recorded in high spatial and temporal resolution is very useful in clinical gait analysis. For functional analysis of PPI, image registration is often performed to maximally correlate source image with a templ...

Patient 3D body pose estimation from pressure imaging.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: In-bed motion monitoring has become of great interest for a variety of clinical applications. Image-based approaches could be seen as a natural non-intrusive approach for this purpose; however, video devices require special challenging setti...

Analysis of body pressure distribution on car seats by using deep learning.

Applied ergonomics
This study aimed to extract information from body pressure distribution, including comfort, participant body size, and seat characteristics by using supervised deep learning, and body pressure characteristics corresponding to sensory evaluation by us...

Sleeping posture recognition using fuzzy c-means algorithm.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Pressure sensors have been used for sleeping posture detection, which meet privacy requirements. Most of the existing techniques for sleeping posture recognition used force-sensitive resistor (FSR) sensors. However, lower limbs cannot be ...

What kind of coffee do you drink? An investigation on effects of eight different extraction methods.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The chemical composition of brewed coffee depends on numerous factors: the beans, post-harvest processing and, finally, the extraction method. In recent decades, numerous coffee-based beverages, obtained using different extraction techniques have ent...

Evaluation of casein as a binding ligand protein for purification of alpha-lactalbumin from beta-lactoglobulin under high hydrostatic pressure.

Food chemistry
Fractionation of β-lactoglubulin (β-lg) and α-lactalbumin (α-la) using conventional separation technologies remains challenging mainly due to similar molecular weight. Herein, casein (CN) was used as ligand protein to specifically aggregate β-lg unde...

Cuff Pressure Algometry in Patients with Chronic Pain as Guidance for Circumferential Tissue Compression for Wearable Soft Exoskeletons: A Systematic Review.

Soft robotics
In this article, we report on a systematic review of the literature on pressure-pain thresholds induced and assessed by computerized cuff pressure algometry (CPA). The motivation for this review is to provide design guidance on pressure levels for we...
