Joint segmentation of multivariate time series with hidden process regression for human activity recognition

, 2013
The problem of human activity recognition is central for understanding and predicting the human behavior, in particular in a prospective of assistive services to humans, such as health monitoring, well being, security, etc.

Sleep Reactivity Amplifies the Impact of Pre‐Sleep Cognitive Arousal on Sleep Disturbances

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
This study investigates how sleep reactivity moderates the ‘stress‐pre‐sleep arousal‐sleep’ pathway in university students. At the within‐individual level, both high and low sleep‐reactive groups showed increased pre‐sleep cognitive arousal and sleep disruptions in response to elevated daily stress.

Sleep assessment using accelerometry: Not all algorithms are equal

Sleep Research
Study objectives Accelerometry devices are increasingly used to assess sleep. However, whether different algorithms provide consistent estimates remains uncertain. This study compared sleep parameters derived from two accelerometry‐based algorithms and a

Wintering Barnacle Geese Exhibit an Increased Behavioural Drive for Sleep After Sleep Deprivation Without a Clear EEG‐Based Sleep Rebound

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep is essential for normal physiological functioning, and sleep deprivation is typically compensated by increasing subsequent sleep duration and/or intensity. However, a recent study showed that barnacle geese (Branta leucopsis) exhibit seasonal variation in sleep homeostasis, with full recovery of sleep after sleep deprivation in summer ...

Assessing Child Obesity and Physical Activity in a Hard-to-Reach Population in California's Central Valley, 2012-2013. [PDF]

, 2015
IntroductionIn California's agricultural Central Valley, the rate of childhood obesity is higher than the national average. Adequate physical activity contributes to obesity prevention and its assessment is useful to evaluate the impact of interventions ...

A Systematic Review on Applications of Artificial Intelligence for Obesity Prevention

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review examines the applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in preventing obesity, addressing a critical public health issue that affects a substantial portion of the population. With obesity rates rising alarmingly, particularly in the United States, this review synthesizes findings from 46 studies published between 2008 ...

Effects of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists (Mono and Combination Therapy) on Energy Expenditure: A Scoping Review

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Weight loss results in reduced energy expenditure (EE) due to body composition alterations (e.g., fat‐free mass and fat mass losses) and mass‐independent adaptations in EE (e.g., hormones). Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RA) are indicated for obesity management; however, their effects on EE remain unclear ...

Physiological markers of Trauma‐related nightmares among military personnel suffering from PTSD: A multicenter home‐recording study

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aim Despite being one of the most disabling symptoms of post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)—disrupting sleep continuity, reinforcing hyperarousal, and worsening psychiatric comorbidity—the physiological signature of Trauma‐related nightmares (TRNs) under naturalistic sleep conditions remains poorly characterized.

Exploring how men's physical activity behaviour changes during and after the Australian Fans‐In‐Training (Aussie‐FIT) program: A qualitative study using the theoretical domains framework

British Journal of Health Psychology, Volume 31, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Objectives Sufficient physical activity (PA) reduces the risk of chronic disease. In Australia, men experience higher rates of overweight, obesity and cardiovascular disease than women. Gender‐sensitized PA interventions like Australian Fans‐In‐Training (Aussie‐FIT) leverage men's interest in sport to promote behaviour change and have shown ...

The ecology of feral cats (Felis catus) on a New Zealand offshore island : considerations for management : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Pholosophy in Zoology at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2018
Invasive species have contributed to the global biodiversity crisis, with the majority of recentday terrestrial vertebrate extinctions implicating invasive predators. Domestic cats (Felis catus), particularly feral cats, are among the main culprits. In
