Mobile Health and Activity Monitoring (Spring 2024)
Health and activity monitoring has become a key purpose of mobile and wearable devices, including phones, (smart) watches, (smart) rings, (smart) belts, and other trackers (e.g., shoe clips, pendants). In this course, we will cover the fundamental aspects that these devices observe, i.e., user behavior, actions, and physiological dynamics of the human body, as well as the sensors, signals, and methods to capture, process, and analyze them. We will then cover methods for pattern extraction and classification on such data. The course will therefore touch on aspects of human activities, cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology, affective computing (recognizing, interpreting, and processing emotions), corresponding lower-level sensing systems (e.g., inertial sensing, optical sensing, photoplethysmography, eletrodermal activity, electrocardiograms) and higher-level computer vision-based sensing (facial expressions, motions, gestures), as well as processing methods for these types of data.
