Talk: Keynote at PerHealth 2021
Prof. Amft gave an invited talk at PerHealth 2021, part of the International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom 2021).
Title: From digital twins to wearables and back
Abstract: In this talk, I will give an overview on our efforts in designing and utilising wearable technology and artificial intelligence (AI) methods with and against digital twins to address medical applications. Due to its current relevance, I will start by reporting from the Corona Datenspende initiative and show how the by far largest study on exploiting wearable data helps to fight COVID-19. Subsequently, the talk will highlight how wearable system design can be optimised in co-simulations with digital human twins on examples from gait analysis and eyeglasses design. I will show how we add realism to human twin models to maximise system design insight. In the final part, I will show how we recently scaled individual to mass behaviour models to analyse interaction and SARS-CoV-2 virus spread under different interventions, including contact tracing, test-to-release, and quarantine.
