Coarse-Fine Convolutional Deep-Learning Strategy for Human Activity Recognition.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In the last decade, deep learning techniques have further improved human activity recognition (HAR) performance on several benchmark datasets. This paper presents a novel framework to classify and analyze human activities. A new convolutional neural ...

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...

High Amounts of Sitting, Low Cardiorespiratory Fitness, and Low Physical Activity Levels: 3 Key Ingredients in the Recipe for Influencing Metabolic Syndrome Prevalence.

American journal of health promotion : AJHP
PURPOSE: Limited research has evaluated the independent and additive associations of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary behavior (SB), and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) with metabolic syndrome, which was the purpose of this st...

A Resistance-Free Sit-To-Stand Rehabilitative System Incorporated with Multi-Sensory Feedback.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Robotic rehabilitative systems have been an active area of research for all movements, including Sit to Stand (STS). STS is an important movement for performing various activities of daily living. Rehabilitation of the STS movement is one of the most...

Real-Time Control for Assisted Sit-to-Stand via Legged Robotic Helpers.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Bipedal robotic systems open up distinctive opportunities to aid individuals with reduced mobility in daily activities such as walking, rising from a seated position, and engaging in fundamental tasks that involve standing, such as bathing or getting...

Skeleton data pre-processing for human pose recognition using Neural Network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Automatic monitoring of daily living activities can greatly improve the possibility of living autonomously for frail individuals. Pose recognition based on skeleton tracking data is promising for identifying dangerous situations and trigger external ...

Design and Development of a Sitting Posture Recognition System.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Sitting posture recognition can be used to evaluate the awareness of a person carrying out a task, such as working or driving, and can aid in avoiding accidents or other health risks, such as musculoskeletal disorders. In addition, sitting posture ca...

Robot-based assessment of sitting and standing balance: preliminary results in Parkinson's disease.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Postural responses to unstable conditions or perturbations are important predictors of the risk of falling and can reveal balance deficits in people with neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD). However, there is a lack of evidences ...

Improving Hip-Worn Accelerometer Estimates of Sitting Using Machine Learning Methods.

Medicine and science in sports and exercise
PURPOSE: This study aimed to improve estimates of sitting time from hip-worn accelerometers used in large cohort studies by using machine learning methods developed on free-living activPAL data.
