| The uprise of consumer-grade fitness trackers has opened the doors to long-term activity monitoring in the wild in research and clinics. However, Fitbit does not identify napping episodes shorter than 90 minutes. Hence, there is a need to establish a robust algorithm to detect naps. - Artificial Intelligence and Signal and Image Processing, Biomedical Engineering, Biosensor Technologies, Electrical and Electronic Engineering

| This project aims to develop a novel algorithm for tracking a person's health condition changes using daily life wearable sensor data, biosignals, and information from nearable sensors. With the Life-long-logging system, we want to provide meaningful data for medical staff and directly engage patients and their caregivers. - Artificial Intelligence and Signal and Image Processing, Engineering and Technology

| This project will be based on the preliminary results obtained from a previous master project in causal graphical modeling of autonomous dysreflexia (AD). The focus of the extension would be two-fold. One is improving the temporal graphical reconstruction for understanding the mechanism of AD. The other one is building a forecasting framework for the early detection and prevention of AD using the graph structure we constructed before. Please refer to the attached document for more details about the task description. Based on the candidate's qualifications, funding/allowance can be provided. - Artificial Intelligence and Signal and Image Processing, Autonomic Nervous System

| In this project, we focus on continuous and quantitative monitoring of activities of daily living (ADL) in SCI individuals with the goal of identifying cardiovascular events and PI-related risk behaviors.
ADLs specific to SCI patients and their lifestyles shall be discussed and narrowed down in the scope of this work, therefore an autonomous camera-based system is proposed to classify ADLs.
The Current work builds on a previous project where a SlowFast network [1] was trained to identify SCI-specific classes and we aim to further improve the classification and temporal resolution for transferring to wearables' time-series data. - Computer Vision, Health Information Systems (incl.

| Modern wearable and nearable sensors allow for continuous 24-hour health monitoring. In clinical settings, such a richness of data is highly desirable to closely monitor the health status of patients, however, often not exploited due to the lack of common interfaces and the overall complexity of integrating the devices into the clinical routine. Moreover, future treatment devices could benefit from interfacing with these sensors through a common interface to perform closed-loop interventions.
In this project, you will develop a novel time-series online synchronization and communication agent adaptable to data changes for interfacing wearable, nearable sensors data with robots in an intelligent system.
Together with a research team in Japan, this work will be implemented at several clinical settings. - Biomedical Engineering, Biosensor Technologies, Computer-Human Interaction, Conceptual Modelling, Data Structures, Digital Systems, Engineering/Technology Instrumentation, Information Storage, Retrieval and Management, Intelligent Robotics, Medical and Health Sciences, Operating Systems, Signal Processing, Software Engineering
