Healthcare as we know it is in the process of going through a massive change — from episodic to continuous, from disease focused to wellness and quality of life focused, from clinic centric to anywhere a patient is, from clinician controlled to patient empowered, and from being driven by limited data to 360-degree, multimodal personal-public-population physical-cyber-social big data driven. While...
According to a study done in 2014 by National Health Interview Survey around 6.3 million children in United States suffer from asthma [1]. Asthma remains one of the leading reasons for pediatric admissions to children's hospitals, and has a prevalence rate of approximately 10% in children and it leads to missed days from school and other societal costs. This occurs despite improved medications to...
Monitoring indoor air quality is critical because Americans spend 93 of their life indoors, and around 6.3 million children suffer from asthma. We want to passively and unobtrusively monitor the asthma patient's environment to detect the presence of two asthma-exacerbating activities: smoking and cooking using the Foobot sensor. We propose a data-driven approach to develop a continuous monitoring-activity...
Augmented Reality has come a long way since its inception with advancement of both hardware and software technologies. It is predicted that the augmented reality as technology will diversify multiple markets not limited to mobile applications, games and customized augmented-reality, capable of generating millions of dollars in revenue.
The Internet of Things (IoT) has been a hot topic of discussion in the technology sphere. IoT allows objects or “things” to be sensed and controlled across an existing network infrastructure mainly the internet. In many ways, IoT is really an evolution of Machine to Machine (M2M) technology that has existed for many decades. Given JavaScript's ubiquitous nature, it's natural that it has been deemed...
Computer Science has always been one the top research interest area of researchers all over the world. Based on social network mining concepts, this paper emphasizes on the network analysis of the Indian computer science researchers or scientists based on their authorship of scientific publications. It also focuses on the problems faced by Indian researchers and some potential solutions.
In Swarm Intelligence, every single agent works in a group as a system to solve a problem. There is no centralized force governing the system. Each agent uses its own wisdom to work and collaborate with its fellow agents to constitute a swarm intelligence. Therefore, wisdom plays a key role in swarm intelligence. Without wisdom problem solving is an impossible task in every domain of life. This combination...
Swarm Intelligence has emerged as an important technique among various computational techniques due to its effieciency and robustness of the solution. The authors have categorized the different swarm intelligence techniques based on the agents population involved and on space-time variation to get an optimal solution to a problem.
