Guide: Towards Understanding Daily Life via Auto- Identification and Statistical Analysis
TL;DR: A high-level overview of the Guide approach is provided, an early prototype of Carnac is discussed, and the expectations of the workshop are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of Infant Movement With a Compact Wireless Accelerometer System
Dana Gravem,Mohan Singh,C. Chen,Julia Rich,Jessica Vaughan,K. Goldberg,Feizal Waffarn,Pai H. Chou,Dan M. Cooper,David J. Reinkensmeyer,Donald J. Patterson +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of a lightweight, wireless, accelerometer system that measures movement and can be worn by premature babies without interfering with routine care was tested and three different computer models were then optimized based on correlating features computed from accelerometer data and the observer's annotations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Computational Agroecology: Sustainable Food Ecosystem Design
Barath Raghavan,Bonnie Nardi,Sarah Taylor Lovell,Juliet Norton,Bill Tomlinson,Donald J. Patterson +5 more
TL;DR: A new domain for sociotechnical system design is proposed: creating new ecosystems for food production that are sustainable while producing high yields, and a program of research is sketches that will contribute to global food security.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work provides the first extensive discussion of the experiential aspects of large-scale collaborative research, and identifies key tools and techniques that would be necessary or useful to the writing process.
The Probabilistic Activity Toolkit: Towards Enabling Activity-Aware Computer Interfaces
TL;DR: A toolkit for activity recognition that addresses problems by leveraging three novel techniques: automatically mining text documents and the web for activity structure; recognizing object use via Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology; and combining these two inputs to infer user behavior with a flexible and scalable, MonteCarlo based inference engine.
