Activity monitoring: continuous recognition and performance evaluation
… the user’s ‘context’ - information such as activity, location and environment. Being ‘context aware’, the wearable would be better placed to offer relevant information to the user as and when it is needed. In this work we focus on recognising one of the most important parts of context: user …

Propositional and activity monitoring using qualitative spatial reasoning
… a novel approach to the combined problem of activity recognition and propositional monitoring. This approach breaks down the problem into smaller sub-tasks. First, the raw sensor input is parsed into simple, easy to understand primitive semantic relationships known as qualitative spatial …

Investigation on Ultra-miniature and Ultra-low-power Non-invasive CMOS pH Sensor for Intracellular Monitoring
… sensors have been demonstrated for intracellular activity monitoring yet, mainly due to the constraints in device size and power consumption. This thesis designs a non-invasive fully-scalable CMOS pH sensor with a diameter smaller than 30 𝜇m and a power consumption of 23 nW using TSMC 65 nm CMOS …

The use of activity measures in combination with physiological factors as indicators of disease in dairy cattle
Animal activity, in combination with physiological factors, can be used for early disease detection in dairy cattle. An initial study determined the impact of flunixin meglumine (FM), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, on activity measures, dry matter intake (DMI) and milk production during …

Using urinary MCP-1 and TWEAK to assess disease activity in a cohort of South African patients with lupus nephritis
… Due to its invasiveness, repeat renal biopsy for monitoring disease activity is not recommended, thus creating a need for noninvasive and accurate biomarkers. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumour necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) have been implicated in the …
