Quantified self for Healthy Ageing: Capita Selecta–MPA. Presentatie, gehouden op 15 juni 2015.

Organizations face many challenges in maintaining the quality of data in their information systems. Often offline methods like surveys are used in existing data quality management solutions. These methods, which are usually used in infrequent time intervals, suffer from high costs, high delays, and low …

Ark of Inquiry is a learning platform that uses a computer-based inquiry learning approach to raise youth awareness to Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI). It is developed in the context of a large-scale European project (http://www.arkofinquiry.eu) and provides young European citizens (7–18-year-olds) …

We present a method for measuring gait velocity using data from an existing ambient sensor network. Gait velocity is an important predictor of fall risk and functional health. In contrast to other approaches that use specific sensors or sensor configurations our method imposes no constraints on the elderly. …

This paper explores a method for deducing the affective state of runners using his/her movements. The movements are measured on the arm using a smartphone’s built-in accelerometer. Multiple features are derived from the measured data. We studied which features are most predictive for the affective state …

Ubiquitous computing, new sensor technologies, and increasingly available and accessible algorithms for pattern recognition and machine learning enable automatic analysis and modeling of human behavior in many novel ways. In this introductory paper of the 6th International Workshop on Human Behavior …

Technology designed to sense behavior, often neglects to directly incorporate subjective input from (elderly) users. This paper presents experiences in deploying technology that considers the elderly user and their subjective input as a way to enrich sensor data systems and empower the user. For this …

Integrating culture into the behavioural models of virtual characters requires knowledge from very different disciplines such as cross-cultural psychology and computer science. If culture-related behavioural differences are simulated with a virtual character system, users might not necessarily understand …
