This technical report records the experiments of applying multiple machine learning algorithms for predicting eating and food purchasing behaviors of free-living individuals. Data was collected with accelerometer, global positioning system (GPS), and body-worn cameras called SenseCam over a one week period in 81 individuals from a variety of ages and demographic backgrounds. These data were turned into minute-level features from sensors as well as engineered features that included time (e.g., time since last eating) and environmental context (e.g., distance to nearest grocery store). Algorithms include Logistic Regression, RBF-SVM, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting. Our results show that the Gradient Boosting model has the highest mean accuracy score (0.7289) for predicting eating events before 0 to 4 minutes. For predicting food purchasing events, the RBF-SVM model (0.7395) outperforms others. For both prediction models, temporal and spatial features were important contributors to predicting eating and food purchasing events.

We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of a multi-sensor low-power necklace NeckSense for automatically and unobtrusively capturing fine-grained information about an individuals eating activity and eating episodes, across an entire wak ing-day in a naturalistic setting. The NeckSense fuses and classifies the proximity of the necklace from the chin, the ambient light, the Lean Forward Angle, and the energy signals to determine chewing sequences, a building block of the eating activity. It then clusters the identified chewing sequences to determine eating episodes. We tested NeckSense with 11 obese and 9 non-obese participants across two studies, where we collected more than 470 hours of data in naturalistic setting. Our result demonstrates that NeckSense enables reliable eating-detection for an entire waking-day, even in free-living environments. Overall, our system achieves an F1-score of 81.6% in detecting eating episodes in an exploratory study. Moreover, our system can achieve a F1-score of 77.1% for episodes even in an all-day-around free-living setting. With more than 15.8 hours of battery-life NeckSense will allow researchers and dietitians to better understand natural chewing and eating behaviors, and also enable real-time interventions.

We study the problem of learning a finite union of integer (axis-aligned) hypercubes over the d-dimensional integer lattice, i.e., whose edges are parallel to the coordinate axes. This is a natural generalization of the classic problem in the computa tional learning theory of learning rectangles. We provide a learning algorithm with access to a minimally adequate teacher (i.e. membership and equivalence oracles) that solves this problem in polynomial-time, for any fixed dimension d. Over a non-fixed dimension, the problem subsumes the problem of learning DNF boolean formulas, a central open problem in the field. We have also provided extensions to handle infinite hypercubes in the union, as well as showing how subset queries could improve the performance of the learning algorithm in practice. Our problem has a natural application to the problem of monadic decomposition of quantifier-free integer linear arithmetic formulas, which has been actively studied in recent years. In particular, a finite union of integer hypercubes correspond to a finite disjunction of monadic predicates over integer linear arithmetic (without modulo constraints). Our experiments suggest that our learning algorithms substantially outperform the existing algorithms.

Recently, we have struck the balance between the information freshness, in terms of age of information (AoI), experienced by users and energy consumed by sensors, by appropriately activating sensors to update their current status in caching enabled I nternet of Things (IoT) networks [1]. To solve this problem, we cast the corresponding status update procedure as a continuing Markov Decision Process (MDP) (i.e., without termination states), where the number of state-action pairs increases exponentially with respect to the number of considered sensors and users. Moreover, to circumvent the curse of dimensionality, we have established a methodology for designing deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms to maximize (resp. minimize) the average reward (resp. cost), by integrating R-learning, a tabular reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm tailored for maximizing the long-term average reward, and traditional DRL algorithms, initially developed to optimize the discounted long-term cumulative reward rather than the average one. In this technical report, we would present detailed discussions on the technical contributions of this methodology.
There is a growing interest in low power highly efficient wearable devices for automatic dietary monitoring (ADM) [1]. The success of deep neural networks in audio event classification problems makes them ideal for this task. Deep neural networks are , however, not only computationally intensive and energy inefficient but also require a large amount of memory. To address these challenges, we propose a shallow gated recurrent unit (GRU) architecture suitable for resource-constrained applications. This paper describes the implementation of the Tiny Eats GRU, a shallow GRU neural network, on a low power micro-controller, Arm Cortex M0+, to classify eating episodes. Tiny Eats GRU is a hybrid of the traditional GRU [2] and eGRU [3] to make it small and fast enough to fit on the Arm Cortex M0+ with comparable accuracy to the traditional GRU. The Tiny Eats GRU utilizes only 4% of the Arm Cortex M0+ memory and identifies eating or non-eating episodes with 6 ms latency and accuracy of 95.15%.
In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the SuperB detector that was to be installed on the SuperB e+e- high luminosity collider. The SuperB asymmetric collider, which was to be constructed on the Tor Vergata campus near the INFN Frascati N ational Laboratory, was designed to operate both at the Upsilon(4S) center-of-mass energy with a luminosity of 10^{36} cm^{-2}s^{-1} and at the tau/charm production threshold with a luminosity of 10^{35} cm^{-2}s^{-1}. This high luminosity, producing a data sample about a factor 100 larger than present B Factories, would allow investigation of new physics effects in rare decays, CP Violation and Lepton Flavour Violation. This document details the detector design presented in the Conceptual Design Report (CDR) in 2007. The R&D and engineering studies performed to arrive at the full detector design are described, and an updated cost estimate is presented. A combination of a more realistic cost estimates and the unavailability of funds due of the global economic climate led to a formal cancelation of the project on Nov 27, 2012.
