| Mar 8 | 10-11:30 am | Roozbeh Jafari | Body Sensor Networks: Applications, Signal Processing, Modeling and Algorithms Abstract: Recent technological advances have led to the introduction of a variety of COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf) wireless and embedded platforms. These platforms can measure physical attributes such as temperature and acceleration, perform limited local computation and storage, and communicate within a short range. Distributed embedded system platforms enable ubiquitous presence of sensing, computing and communication capabilities and hence, enable a large number of application domains. In particular, they can be mounted on human body or clothing, or even be woven into the very fabric that we wear to realize various health monitoring applications. We take special interest in such systems, generally referred to as Body Sensor Networks (BSN), due to the unparalleled significance of their application domain and their very specific requirements and implications. Sensor platforms integrated into clothing provide the possibility of enhanced reliability of accident reporting and health monitoring. Such devices improve the independence of people needing living assistance. In this talk, we aim at targeting an important application, locomotion monitoring for infants, which can serve as a gateway of knowledge to many other health monitoring applications. We furthermore address several pattern recognition techniques including data segmentation, data reduction, data fusion and modeling. TI Auditorium, EC South 2.102 (Directions) |
