Clinical decision support tools play a pivotal role in bridging the gap between research findings and their application in clinical practice. The primary goals of building a functional prototype for a web-based clinical decision support tool are to validate the concept, gather user feedback for refinement, demonstrate feasibility, and identify and address technical and usability challenges early in development. Continue

Vagus nerve stimulation has emerged as a promising nonpharmacological intervention for a range of medical conditions. Invasive vagus nerve stimulation via implanted stimulators is employed as a noninvasive treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy, congestive heart failure, and major depression. Noninvasive application of electrical stimulation offers advantages such as reduced infection risk and enhanced usability. We aim to investigate the mechanisms underlying non-invasive so-called transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) and optimize its clinical application using computational modeling. Continue

In data mining, the relationship between variables is extracted from the association of events in a record. For example,  consider a shopping receipt as a record of acquired items and each item as an event. Therefore, data mining looks for the association of products that are usually purchased toget... Continue

As people move through the building, they generate paths seen as activations of different sensors and actuators. Individually, a path can be described a sequence of events; each event corresponds to a significant change in the state or value of a sensor or actuator. As paths repeat and overlap, a su... Continue

ACTLab Activities Office buildings take up to a year to be fully commissioned, and usually, only a subset of the installed capacities are deployed. The main goal of the project is to aid in the commissioning and management of smart office building with a high density of pervasive devices. We design... Continue
