Step Counting with Attention-based LSTM [PDF]
2022 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), 2022 Physical activity is recognized as an essential component of overall health. One measure of physical activity, the step count, is well known as a predictor of long-term morbidity and mortality. Step Counting (SC) is the automated counting of the number of steps an individual takes over a specified period of time and space.

Constructing biological pathways by a two-step counting approach. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Networks are widely used in biology to represent the relationships between genes and gene functions. In Boolean biological models, it is mainly assumed that there are two states to represent a gene: on-state and off-state.
