Wearable sensors provide abundant physiological time series observations, yet the resolution at which we should extract features for downstream tasks remain unclear. We hypothesize that temporal resolution is a fundamental axis of representation learning, with different clinical and behavioral outco…
Biosignals acquired from different locations on the body often provide temporally ordered views of the same underlying physiological process. However, most existing self-supervised learning methods treat these signals as interchangeable views, overlooking the directional temporal dynamics that link …
Advances in wearable computing and AI have increased interest in leveraging PPG for health monitoring over the past decade. One of the biggest challenges in developing health algorithms based on such biosignals is the sparsity of clinical labels, which makes biosignals temporally distant from lab dr…
Stress can potentially have detrimental effects on both physical and mental well-being, but monitoring it can be challenging, especially in free-living conditions. One approach to address this challenge is to use earbud accelerometers to capture the ballistocardiogram (BCG) response. These sensors a…
Core body temperature (CBT) is one of the critical yet under-explored phenomena in the context of stress detection. Several CBT measurement methods exist, but they are often limited in continuous CBT monitoring. Furthermore, how continuous CBT can be used to model acute stress is little explored. We…
Consumer hearable technologies such as earbuds are increasingly embedding physiological sensors, including photoplethysmography (PPG) and inertial measurements. They create unique opportunities to passively monitor stress and deliver digital interventions such as music. However, PPG signals recorded…
Lung health assessment is traditionally done mainly through X-ray images and spirometry tests which are time-consuming, cumbersome, and costly. In this paper, we investigate the potential of passively recordable contents such as speech, cough and heart signal for such an assessment. Our regression m…
