Fair Dice: A Tilt and Motion-Aware Cube with a Conscience. [PDF]

, 2006
As an example of sensory augmentation of a tiny object, a small cube-sized die is presented that perceives rolls and records what face it lands on. It is thus able to detect bias for unfair behaviour due to its physical imperfections.

A machine learning model for multi-night actigraphic detection of chronic insomnia: development and validation of a pre-screening tool

Royal Society Open Science, 2021
We propose a novel machine learning-based method for analysing multi-night actigraphy signals to objectively classify and differentiate nocturnal awakenings in individuals with chronic insomnia (CI) and their cohabiting healthy partners.
