In short, we developed and implemented an innovative
algorithm to determine “where” physical activity occurs using proximity
sensors coupled with a widely used physical activity monitor, not just the "what" is done and "when".
Our original and innovative algorithm, based on graph generation and Bayesian filters, was able to accurately predict the indoor location of an individual within the building.
This novel implementation of "context sensing" will facilitate new research questions and applications, including promoting healthy behavior change, optimizing patient care, and efficient health care planning.
Thanks Daniele and Salvo for the wonderful work.
