Sleep Posture One-Shot Learning Framework Using Kinematic Data Augmentation: In-Silico and In-Vivo Case Studies [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Sleep posture is linked to several health conditions such as nocturnal cramps and more serious musculoskeletal issues. However, in-clinic sleep assessments are often limited to vital signs (e.g. brain waves). Wearable sensors with embedded inertial measurement units have been used for sleep posture classification; nonetheless, previous works consider ...

Human Activity Recognition Process Using 3-D Posture Data
IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems, 2015 In this paper, we present a method for recognizing human activities using information sensed by an RGB-D camera, namely the Microsoft Kinect. Our approach is based on the estimation of some relevant joints of the human body by means of the Kinect; three ...

The Effect of Body Posture on Brain Glymphatic Transport
Journal of Neuroscience, 2015 The glymphatic pathway expedites clearance of waste, including soluble amyloid β (Aβ) from the brain. Transport through this pathway is controlled by the brain's arousal level because, during sleep or anesthesia, the brain's interstitial space volume ...

Occlusion-Robust Multi-Sensory Posture Estimation in Physical Human-Robot Interaction [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 3D posture estimation is important in analyzing and improving ergonomics in physical human-robot interaction and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders. Vision-based posture estimation approaches are prone to sensor and model errors, as well as occlusion, while posture estimation solely from the interacting robot's trajectory suffers from ...
