Caulfield","doi":"10.4108/ICST.PERVASIVEHEALTH.2011.246061","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4108/ICST.PERVASIVEHEALTH.2011.246061","url":null,"abstract":"Accelerometer technology is becoming increasingly smaller and cheaper to develop. As a result such devices can easily be integrated into a shoe to ubiquitously capture gait information which could potentially be used to detect development of injuries, neuro-degenerative diseases or a change in disease symptoms. Much research has been done in the past comparing accelerometer data to kinematic or spatio-temporal data; however little has been done investigating what insights into normal and dysfunctional movement patterns accelerometer data from the foot can provide. It is important to first gain an understanding of how foot accelerometer data behaves during healthy gait before developing methods to assess dysfunctional gait with such a tool. In this preliminary study we have analyzed data harnessed from tri-axial accelerometers mounted on the dorsi of the feet in 6 healthy subjects walking at different speeds (slow, normal relaxed walking, fast) to hypothesize what insights into movement and motor control accelerometer data output alone can provide. Results indicate that peak acceleration during initial swing, mean acceleration during mid-swing and peak acceleration at initial contact are main quantitative features that distinguish between walking velocities. These results suggest that quantifying specific acceleration patterns during gait may one day be useful to cheaply and easily detect gait pattern changes due to disease or injury. Though these preliminary results are promising, further work is required to investigate the utility of accelerometer use in a patient population.","PeriodicalId":444978,"journal":{"name":"2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129565492","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 main contribution is to use generalized events, described in terms of `space-time chunks', as a unifying and simplifying structuring principle. We use reasoning with ontologies and rules in combination with a database system, and also incorporate numerical computation. We show that an easy to use modeling formalism is obtained, and that reasoning is feasible at the time of service request, by using R-entailment, which enables efficient exploitation of ontologies and rules in the presence of RDF data. Two applications were built using the approach described in this paper, both of which are related to monitoring well-being of elderly people, and both of which use simple, low-cost sensors.","PeriodicalId":444978,"journal":{"name":"2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128037009","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}

In this paper we go over comparable Ami system architectures; summarise the physical and logical design of PINATA; provide details of the knowledgebase modelled in RDF/S and the ontologies designed for units of interest, including resources, and context-related concepts. These individual models are unified into a connected, context-rich data model through another set of classes and properties.

Relatively few of the investigations have tried to integrate depression and the related issues into a pervasive depression prevention system incorporating user-centered design. In this paper we propose an approach to provide relief for a user(s) depression by implementing a personalized treatment program; this is implemented in an electroencephalogram (EEG) based music therapy system. EEG plays two roles in this approach: to identify the user (a critical factor in achieving personalized service provision) and to measure the degree of depression. This paper considers the methodology of our EEG approach with design parameters for each component in a pervasive environment. The experiments involved 22 subjects and 4 subjects respectively in user identification and depression detection to evaluate the EEG approach. The results reported are positive and support the conclusion that the EEG approach provides an effective approach to user-centered depression prevention Additionally, the research outcomes support the conclusion that a mobile music therapy system offers beneficial effects for the treatment of depression. The paper concludes with a brief discussion on challenges, outstanding research questions, and future work.","PeriodicalId":444978,"journal":{"name":"2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132281351","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}

Many of these games are also being played by the senior population. Participating in regular training sessions outside their homes can be challenging for elderly, and it is hard to motivate oneself to exercise regularly alone at home. Regular physical activity is important both for the physical and psychological health and it is an integral part of many rehabilitation therapies. In addition, many elderly suffer from loneliness, making social interaction within exergames very important. In this paper we provide a narrative review of how exergames can help to motivate elderly to exercise more, focusing in possible social interactions in online exergaming and persuasive technologies. Finally, we discuss how social exergaming can be used both to prevent loneliness and encourage physical activity.","PeriodicalId":444978,"journal":{"name":"2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129796300","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}

Personal care at nursing homes tends to (quite reasonably) have high priority at the expense of social activities, thus creating situations where a number of elderly people experience loneliness. This paper presents ongoing work that focuses on developing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for nursing homes that brings together professional care activities and family initiated care. We discuss challenges and opportunities for welfare or assistive technology design to support articulation work in a care setting, where both care professionals and family members (of the elderly inhabitants) co-exists. Furthermore, the care sector at hand suffers from economical limitations that challenge a successful implementation of more costly technologies. We present a concept named Care to Share? that seeks to bring together professional and family initiated care and that assists in the articulation work of social activities in a nursing home.","PeriodicalId":444978,"journal":{"name":"2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122012204","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}
