Innovations in energy expenditure assessment
Optimal nutritional therapy has been associated with better clinical outcomes and requires providing energy as closed as possible to measured energy expenditure. We reviewed the current innovations in energy expenditure assessment in humans, focusing on indirect calorimetry and other new alternative methods.Although considered the reference method to ...

Improving Energy Expenditure Estimation in Wearables using a Heat Flux Sensor: First Observations [PDF]
Wearable electronics are often used for estimating the energy expenditure of the user based on heart rate measurement. While heart rate is a good predictor of calorie consumption at high intensities, it is less precise at low intensity levels, which translates into inaccurate results when estimating daily net energy expenditure.

Utility Fairness for the Differentially Private Federated Learning [PDF]
Federated learning (FL) allows predictive model training on the sensed data in a wireless Internet of things (IoT) network evading data collection cost in terms of energy, time, and privacy. In this paper, for a FL setting, we model the learning gain achieved by an IoT device against its participation cost as its utility.

Federated Learning Cost Disparity for IoT Devices [PDF]
Federated learning (FL) promotes predictive model training at the Internet of things (IoT) devices by evading data collection cost in terms of energy, time, and privacy. We model the learning gain achieved by an IoT device against its participation cost as its utility.

Equity Implications of Net-Zero Emissions: A Multi-Model Analysis of Energy Expenditures Across Income Classes Under Economy-Wide Deep Decarbonization Policies [PDF]
With companies, states, and countries targeting net-zero emissions around midcentury, there are questions about how these targets alter household welfare and finances, including distributional effects across income groups. This paper examines the distributional dimensions of technology transitions and net-zero policies with a focus on welfare impacts ...

Bone‐wise rigid registration of femur, tibia, and fibula for the tracking of temporal changes
Abstract Background Multiple myeloma (MM) induces temporal alterations in bone structure, such as osteolytic bone lesions, which are challenging to identify through manual image interpretation. The large variation in radiologists' assessments, even at expert centers, further complicates diagnosis.
