This work sets the stage for real-life mobility monitoring through Earables, opening the door for advanced health assessments! Check out our publication here: doi.org/10.1109/JBHI.2…

Step-by-step: We're proud to share our latest research step in IEEE JBHI on step length and gait speed estimations using a hearing-aid integrated accelerometer.

To answer these questions, we developed an automated system to detect stress-related behaviours under human care. Our publication on this is now online! See doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoi…

Are male polar bears more prone to signs of stress under human care than females? At what time of day do polar bears struggle to find peace? And are there seasons when polar bears just want to chill?

🌟How can you tell if your device is secretly conscious? Join our workshop at Mensch und Computer 24 in Karlsruhe! Let us share insights on consciousness, design novel measurement approaches, and discuss ethical considerations.

Do we change how we move under acute stress? Can we use these changes to detect stressed individuals using machine learning? Robert Richer and co-authors addressed this question in their #scientificreports paper - nature.com/articles/s4159… @UniFAU @FAU_MaD_Lab @BioHealthPsyFAU

In addition, we published a set of open benchmarks to pave the way from reproducible algorithm comparisons in the entire community! Check out the performance of our algorithms, or learn how to test your algorithms on the same benchmarks. github.com/mad-lab-fau/ga… ⏬ (3/3)

Our paper published in OJEMB explains the urgent need for open algorithms for human gait analysis and explains our approach to developing new methods. ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10411… @AKuederle Nils Roth Martin Ullrich @rich_robe @MalteOlle Felix Kluge @BjoernEskofier ⏬ (2/3)

A while ago we open-sourced ALL of our gait-analysis algorithms: github.com/mad-lab-fau/ga… We just hit two new major milestones: 1. A scientific paper about gaitmap (ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10411…) 2. Open benchmarks for all of our algorithms (github.com/mad-lab-fau/ga…) 🧵⏬ (1/3)

Our very own, Brittany Sommers @BrittanyS_CHMS, recently moved to Germany for her position as Postdoctoral Fellow & Research Group Leader of the Digital Health & Gait Analytics Group in the Machine Learning & Data Analytics (@FAU_MaD_Lab) Lab at FAU-Erlangen. Congrats, Brittany!

Our research about the Cold Face Test for acute stress reduction got featured in @zeitonline! @UniFAU @FAUEmpkinS @FAU_MaD_Lab @BioHealthPsyFAU @BjoernEskofier
