Estimating sleep parameters using an accelerometer without sleep diary
Scientific Reports, 2018 Wrist worn raw-data accelerometers are used increasingly in large-scale population research. We examined whether sleep parameters can be estimated from these data in the absence of sleep diaries.

Genetic studies of accelerometer-based sleep measures yield new insights into human sleep behaviour
Nature Communications, 2019 Sleep is an essential human function but its regulation is poorly understood. Using accelerometer data from 85,670 UK Biobank participants, we perform a genome-wide association study of 8 derived sleep traits representing sleep quality, quantity and ...

Accelerometer systems as tools for health and welfare assessment in cattle and pigs - a review.
Behavioural Processes, 2020 Welfare assessment has traditionally been performed by direct observation by humans, providing information at only selected points in time. Recently, this assessment method has been questioned, as 'Precision Livestock Farming' technologies may be able to

Denoising MEMS accelerometer sensors based on L2‐norm total variation algorithm
Electronics Letters, 2017 A method for denoising accelerometer data based on the L2‐norm total variation (LTV) algorithm is presented. In order to collect accelerometer data, a wireless accelerometer sensor was developed that is directly connected to a central node. By benefiting
