Preface

  • Short stick exercises have been attracting attention from the viewpoint of preventing falls and improving the health of elderly people and are generally performed under the guidance of instructor ... Read More

  • In Japan, the demand for nursing homes is increasing owing to the rapid aging of the population, and the shortage of caregivers has become a serious problem. This problem has been recognized as a ... Read More

  • The idea of Society 5.0 initiative has been proposed to solve various social problems by connecting virtual cyberspace and real physical space through information technology. When applying the id ... Read More

  • Many office workers are exposed to fluorescent light from mid-morning to after dark. The changes in the amount of light in the natural world, from bright during the day to dark at night, play an ... Read More

  • Heart rate (HR) measurement by a wrist-worn device suffers from noises owing to body movement. Even though many researchers have proposed sophisticated methods for the compensation of noises in m ... Read More

  • Gesture input using the acceleration sensor of a smartphone is a promising new input method. The target input gestures in this paper are movements of a user’s hand holding a smartphone. However ... Read More

  • Maintaining a positive interaction is the key to a healthy and efficient meeting. Aiming to improve the quality of online meetings, we present an end-to-end neural-network-based system, named Mee ... Read More

  • Disappearances and falls are problems in the medical and nursing care of elderly people. There is also a shortage of nurses and caregivers, which increases the workload per person. A system that ... Read More

  • We propose an indoor positioning system based on deep learning and fingerprinting. On the mobile side, we designed an Android application with received signal strength information (RSSI) signal r ... Read More

  • The rapid proliferation of mobile devices with various sensors has enabled participatory mobile sensing (PMS). Several PMS platforms suffer from open issues including the limited use of their fun ... Read More
