Course description Wearable sensor technology, particularly inertial measurement sensors are used in various motion analysis including applications in sport, medicine, and rehabilitation of patients after stroke. In this Seminar, we aim to use wearable sensors, i.e. inertial measurement units (IMUs... Continue

Seminar description The field of knowledge discovery has focused on the extraction of rules created from the frequent association symbols. With the recent introduction of the Bayesian rule mining algorithms, the focus is shifting from measuring relevance based on rule frequency and moving towards t... Continue

Problem A main obstacle to deploy body-worn sensor-based wearable systems in free-living settings is the limited battery life. Runtime of devices such miniature accessories and garment can barely cover the time of a daily activity. A continuous long-term behavioural monitoring system requires energ... Continue

In this collaborative project, including the Reha Clinic in Rheinfelden and the ETH Zürich, we investigated recovery trends in hemiparetic patients afters troke using wearable IMUs. We evaluated algorithms for unsupervised stride detection, walking parameter estimation and trend quantification. In... Continue

An emerging number of  methods are proposed for eating event detection. To assess the detection performance, evaluation metrics such as precision, recall and F1 score are commonly used. However, these popular metrics only give overview of event retrieval performance and do not tell people the absolu... Continue

To provide high-quality dietary assessment of free-living behaviour is the first step for implementing any effective diet coaching and weight management program.  A continuous direct human observation is an expensive and non-scalable solution. Exploiting an unobtrusive wearable camera-based solution... Continue

Personalized 3D-printed eyeglasses equipped with sensing functions can enhance daily life through augmenting applications that enable wearers to monitor their vitals and behaviour. Novel 3D-printing techniques and materials could provide the basis for personalized smart eyeglasses such that the fram... Continue
