Sensor networks are frequently used to monitor our environment. From monitoring the habitat of seabirds [1], to the structural integrity of bridges [2]. They can also be used to monitor the arctic tundra to help us monitor climate change. The arctic tundra does however place additional requirements on a monitoring system. Low access to energy sources, human intervention, and networks to transfer ...

Location-based data may be considered highly private; as such, handling location-based data requires that it cannot be used to track a user. In a network of multiple edge devices that each collect data, training a machine learning model would typically involve transmitting the data securely to a central server which requires strict privacy rules. Federated learning solves the privacy problem ...

Hearing loss, and assistive technologies to compensate for the loss, are becoming more and more regular. Hearing aids have improved the quality of life for many suffering from hearing loss but are still insufficient in some social settings. The café problem rises when there are a group of people talking in a relatively noisy environment where one person has hearing aids. Even with modern advancements, ...

Evidence shows lower physical activity (PA) levels in persons with an intellectual disability (ID) compared to the general population. Physical activity promotes multiple health benefits, such as prolonged life and reduced risk for obtaining various chronic diseases. There are numerous applications targeting increased physical activity for the general population, but these tend to be too complex to ...

Elite football today is infused with technologies for collecting data on players' performance and health. Technologies such as wearable health and fitness trackers, full-body medical scans, and positional systems mounted around a stadium give coaches a wide range of accurate data about their players. However, coaches do not have the time or ability to analyze all this data for each player to give ...

The edge computing paradigm has recently started to gain a lot of momentum. The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has also grown in recent years, and there is currently ongoing research that investigates how AI can be applied to numerous of different fields. This includes the edge computing domain. In Norway, there is currently ongoing research being conducted that investigates how the confluence ...

Chronic pain is defined as pain that lasts for at least 12 weeks. People with chronic pain conditions can have difficulties getting through daily tasks because the pain can limit their mobility, strength, and endurance. As of 2021, there is no universal treatment that works for all cases of chronic pain. A tool that can give personalized treatment alternatives for each patient can benefit this ...

Oppgaven undersøker hvordan brukerprofiler funnet fra smartphone sensor/context data can bli bruk i et smart nudge system. Relevant forskning som omhandler bruker profilering fra smartphone sensor/context data blir beskrevet og brukt som argument for å lage et smart design basert på brukerprofiler funnet fra smartphone sensor/context data. Et system er implementert hvor bruker profiler blir funnet ...

This project aims to explore creating a relational database of Conflict-Free Replicated Relations (CRR) that is generally applicable for most user applications. We aim to achieve generality by using SQLite because it is a commonly used embedded Database Management System that comes default in all Android or iOS devices. The implementation challenge is making CRR using only SQL. We propose a ...

\textit{Diabetes} is a disease defined by raised blood glucose levels, and people with the disorder have to adhere to a strict self-management regime to avoid short- and long-term complications. Today the World Health Organization reports that over 420 million people have diabetes, and the condition is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. This thesis presents the design and ...
