TITLE=Continuous monitoring of eating and sleeping behaviors in the home environments of older adults: a case study demonstration JOURNAL=Frontiers in Public Health VOLUME=11 YEAR=2024 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/public-health/articles/10.3389/fpubh.2023.1277714 DOI=10.3389/fpubh.2023.1277714 ISSN=2296-2565 ABSTRACT=

Accurate observation of patient functioning is necessary for rigorous clinical research and for improving the quality of patient care. However, clinic or laboratory environments systematically differ from the contexts of everyday life. Further, assessments that are completed in a single institutional session may not be generalizable. Here, we describe a computer vision methodology that measures human functioning continuously in the environments where patients live, sleep, and eat.
