Privacy-Preserving Ambient Sensing for Activities of Daily Living: Multimodal Radar–Thermal Human Activity Recognition and Smart Plug Appliance Recognition

Continuous monitoring of Activities of daily living (ADLs) requires sensing systems that are privacy-preserving, low-power, and robust to environmental variation. Ambient sensing technologies provide an alternative to RGB video and wearable devices, but individual sensing modalit...

Processing and property relationships in material extrusion additive manufacturing of PLA using a hybrid predictive model for tensile strength optimization

Material-extrusion additive manufacturing produces polymer components with region-dependent mechanical behaviour arising from raster orientation, shell geometry, and layer-wise deposition. This study develops a region-based hybrid model for predicting the tensile strength of PLA...

Terminology for describing the 24-h cycle of physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep: a scoping review

Abstract Background Physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep are three behaviours which occupy the 24-h cycle and interact to influence a multitude of health outcomes. Different terms are currently used to describe these behaviours collectively (e.g., movement behaviours...
