Since stress contributes to a broad range of mental and physical health problems, the objective assessment of stress is essential for behavioral and physiological studies. Although several studies have evaluated stress levels in controlled settings, objective stress assessment in everyday settings is still largely under-explored due to challenges arising from confounding contextual factors and limited adherence for self-reports. In this paper, we explore the objective prediction of stress levels in everyday settings based on heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) captured via low-cost and easy-to-wear photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors that are widely available on newer smart wearable devices. We present a layered system architecture for personalized stress monitoring that supports a tunable collection of data samples for labeling, and present a method for selecting informative samples from the stream of real-time data for labeling. We captured the stress levels of fourteen volunteers through self-reported questionnaires over periods of between 1-3 months, and explored binary stress detection based on HR and HRV using Machine Learning Methods. We observe promising preliminary results given that the dataset is collected in the challenging environments of everyday settings. The binary stress detector is fairly accurate and can detect stressful vs non-stressful samples with a macro-F1 score of up to %76. Our study lays the groundwork for more sophisticated labeling strategies that generate context-aware, personalized models that will empower health professionals to provide personalized interventions.

Obesity and being over-weight add to the risk of some major life threatening diseases. According to W.H.O., a considerable population suffers from these disease whereas poor nutrition plays an important role in this context. Traditional food activity monitoring systems like Food Diaries allow manual record keeping of eating activities over time, and conduct nutrition analysis. However, these systems are prone to the problems of manual record keeping and biased-reporting. Therefore, recently, the research community has focused on designing automatic food monitoring systems since the last decade which consist of one or multiple wearable sensors. These systems aim at providing different macro and micro activity detections like chewing, swallowing, eating episodes, and food types as well as estimations like food mass and eating duration. Researchers have emphasized on high detection accuracy, low estimation errors, un-intrusive nature, low cost and real life implementation while designing these systems, however a comprehensive automatic food monitoring system has yet not been developed. Moreover, according to the best of our knowledge, there is no comprehensive survey in this field that delineates the automatic food monitoring paradigm, covers a handful number of research studies, analyses these studies against food intake monitoring tasks using various parameters, enlists the limitations and sets up future directions. In this research work, we delineate the automatic food intake monitoring paradigm and present a survey of research studies. With special focus on studies with wearable sensors, we analyze these studies against food activity monitoring tasks. We provide brief comparison of these studies along with shortcomings based upon experimentation results conducted under these studies. We setup future directions at the end to facilitate the researchers working in this domain.
One major challenge in the medication of Parkinsons disease is that the severity of the disease, reflected in the patients motor state, cannot be measured using accessible biomarkers. Therefore, we develop and examine a variety of statistical models to detect the motor state of such patients based on sensor data from a wearable device. We find that deep learning models consistently outperform a classical machine learning model applied on hand-crafted features in this time series classification task. Furthermore, our results suggest that treating this problem as a regression instead of an ordinal regression or a classification task is most appropriate. For consistent model evaluation and training, we adopt the leave-one-subject-out validation scheme to the training of deep learning models. We also employ a class-weighting scheme to successfully mitigate the problem of high multi-class imbalances in this domain. In addition, we propose a customized performance measure that reflects the requirements of the involved medical staff on the model. To solve the problem of limited availability of high quality training data, we propose a transfer learning technique which helps to improve model performance substantially. Our results suggest that deep learning techniques offer a high potential to autonomously detect motor states of patients with Parkinsons disease.
Continuous collection of physiological data from wearable sensors enables temporal characterization of individual behaviors. Understanding the relation between an individuals behavioral patterns and psychological states can help identify strategies t o improve quality of life. One challenge in analyzing physiological data is extracting the underlying behavioral states from the temporal sensor signals and interpreting them. Here, we use a non-parametric Bayesian approach to model sensor data from multiple people and discover the dynamic behaviors they share. We apply this method to data collected from sensors worn by a population of hospital workers and show that the learned states can cluster participants into meaningful groups and better predict their cognitive and psychological states. This method offers a way to learn interpretable compact behavioral representations from multivariate sensor signals.
Over the past several years, the electrocardiogram (ECG) has been investigated for its uniqueness and potential to discriminate between individuals. This paper discusses how this discriminatory information can help in continuous user authentication b y a wearable chest strap which uses dry electrodes to obtain a single lead ECG signal. To the best of the authors knowledge, this is the first such work which deals with continuous authentication using a genuine wearable device as most prior works have either used medical equipment employing gel electrodes to obtain an ECG signal or have obtained an ECG signal through electrode positions that would not be feasible using a wearable device. Prior works have also mainly dealt with using the ECG signal for identification rather than verification, or dealt with using the ECG signal for discrete authentication. This paper presents a novel algorithm which uses QRS detection, weighted averaging, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), and a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier to determine whether the wearer of the device should be positively verified or not. Zero intrusion attempts were successful when tested on a database consisting of 33 subjects.

Recent years have witnessed the rapid development of human activity recognition (HAR) based on wearable sensor data. One can find many practical applications in this area, especially in the field of health care. Many machine learning algorithms such as Decision Trees, Support Vector Machine, Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbor, and Multilayer Perceptron are successfully used in HAR. Although these methods are fast and easy for implementation, they still have some limitations due to poor performance in a number of situations. In this paper, we propose a novel method based on the ensemble learning to boost the performance of these machine learning methods for HAR.
