However, it is costly to obtain eating habit information of common people in terms of both time and expenses. This paper presents a pervasive approach for eating habit monitoring and recognition by a necklace-like device and a smartphone communicating via bluetooth. The necklace-like device acquires acoustic signals from the throat, and the data are processed in the smartphone to recognize important features. With complex acoustic signals collected from the throat, our method comprehensively analyzes and recognizes different events including chewing, swallowing, and breathing in the smartphone. Experiments show that the proposed approach can recognize different acoustic events effectively, and the recognition accuracy with K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) is 86.82% and 98.35%, respectively. Finally, a real eating case study is conducted to validate the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114381407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alternatively, physical activity also improves cognitive performance and reduces cognitive decline. This tool focuses on therapeutic aspects of both cognitive and physical rehabilitation for older adults, as it improves memory by performing mental activities and physical rehabilitation at the same time. To achieve this, a Kinect-based virtual game intended for Windows which enables users to control and interact intuitively with the computer without an intermediary controller has been developed. Furthermore, all the data generated during the session is stored in order to log each rehabilitation activity. Preliminary tests have shown an increase in the users' motivation while using the tool. They also indicated the possible rehabilitation of 18 patients with motor disabilities and the maintenance of their cognitive impairment preventing its degeneration.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132687651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The number of developments in the area of Serious Games and Biofeedback targeting these children has increased recently. Nevertheless there is no specific methodology for evaluating these interventions. The object of this article is to establish a common core of minimum criteria for carrying out validation experiments of this kind. These protocol guidelines are aimed at the evaluation of cognitive rehabilitation activities for children with ADHD. The key point in this methodology is that it takes into account the inclusion of biofeedback and Serious Games techniques within the intervention program. The proposed methodology was specifically designed for researchers in computer science, who need to evaluate each study setting specifically, so as to determine the most suitable validation protocol for each case.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133325710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Habits are often deeply ingrained but also easily disrupted in new situations. This makes the changing of habits a life-long learning and adaptation process rather than a one-time task with limited duration. Therefore, modern understanding of learning may be applied in designing effective and sustainable health interventions. We have designed the \"Mindless Change\" mobile intervention based on a framework of modern learning theories. The self-intervention guides the user in a habit formation through small daily changes, supported by a user selectable simple cartoon type of avatar with varied dialogue. We conducted a four-week pilot study with 66 participants to assess the feasibility of our intervention and especially the contribution of the avatar. Users found the self-intervention intuitive and easy to use but the attrition remained a challenge in this open pilot where participants were not provided any external motivation, support or incentives to start and continue using the service. The results suggest that even a simple non-anthropomorphic support avatar can be beneficial for the health intervention, which encourages us to investigate the concept further.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134298136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the advent of the quantified-self movement in recent years, there has been an increase in technology applications supporting wellness self-management. Such applications allow people to self-track and self-report, with many providing feedback. However, little research in this area has examined how best to support older adults in health self-management. This paper reports findings from a 5-month home deployment of YourWellness -- an application that supports older adults in self-reporting on their wellbeing and provides feedback to promote positive wellbeing management. Our findings contribute to a greater understanding of older adults' attitudes and behaviours in relation to wellbeing self-management that can facilitate the creation of new, personalized health and wellbeing interventions for this population.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132081884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 3D technology is used to provide two separate images to the two eyes. The test is a classical random dot test, but differently to other test printed on paper, the images shown to the patient can vary and there is no monocular clue. These features allow to deliver the test also in groups (instead of individuals) like school classes, and to increase the sensitivity. The system can be easily used also by not specialized personnel and this may further increase the cost efficiency of the test. Experiments carried on with a large set of children of age between five and seven years are presented. The obtained results are discussed through some comparisons between traditional approach and our innovative idea.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115747340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the methodology for face-to-face speech therapy is well established, several mobile-device-based and web-based applications have emerged to assist either the speech language pathologist (SLP) or parents administering the therapy based on instructions of the SLP. Clearly technology is playing a major role in the form of assistive/augmentative technology. Although such tools and technology are widely in use in the West, there has been very little effort in this direction, for Indian languages. This paper describes the digitization of the well established Hindi Photo Articulation Test (H-PAT), used for the assessment of articulation disorders, as a part of the pre-evaluation for Speech therapy. This paper will elaborate on H-PAT in its current form and show how digitization of H-PAT is envisioned to improve the quality of assessment from both the SLP's as well as the patients perspective. Digitized version affords flexibility to the user by means of personalization based on certain parameters. Also, this version accords SLPs better means of organization of work for future reference and monitoring progress.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116172581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, it is important to efficiently advise the user to emulate the crucial features that define the good template.
