A unified active power control scheme is devised for the grid-integrated permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind power system (WPS) to follow the Indian electricity grid code requirements. The objective of this paper is to propose control schemes to ensure the continuous integration of WPS into the grid even during a higher percentage of voltage dip. In this context, primarily a constructive ...

The Collaborative Symbiotic Weather Forecasting system, CSWF, let individual users do on-demand small region, short-term, and very high-resolution forecasts. When the regions have some overlap, a symbiotic forecast can be produced based on the individual forecasts from each region. Small differences in where the center of the region is located when there is complex terrain in the region, leads to ...

Air pollution involves multiple health and economic challenges. Its accurate and low-cost monitoring is important for developing services dedicated to reduce the exposure of living beings to the pollution. Particulate matter (PM) measurement sensors belong to the key components that support operation of these systems. In this work, a modular, mobile Internet of Things sensor for PM measurements has ...

Ubiquitous sensors and Internet of Things (IoT)technologies have revolutionized the sports industry, providing new methodologies for planning, effective coordination of training, and match analysis post-game. New methods, including machine learning, image, and video processing, have been developed for performance evaluation, allowing the analyst to track the performance of a player in real-time. ...

Many data related problems involve handling multiple data streams of different types at the same time. These problems are both complex and challenging, and researchers often end up using only one modality or combining them via a late fusion based approach. To tackle this challenge, we develop and investigate the usefulness of a novel deep learning method called tower networks. This method is able ...

Medical consultations for chronic diseases form an arena to provide information from health personnel to patients. This information is necessary for patients to understand how to deal with the possible lifelong symptoms and needed self-management activities. The amount of patient-generated health data is increasing. Today’s patients gather an increasing amount of personalised health-related information. ...

The increased development and use of ubiquitous digital services reinforce the trend where health-related data is generated everywhere. Data usage in different areas introduces different terms for the same or similar concepts. This adds to the confusion of what these terms represent. We aim to provide an overview of concepts and terms used in connection with digital twins and in a healthcare context.

Patient self-management is vital to improved health outcomes for patients with chronic diseases. The objective of this study was to understand the role of wearable sensors in patients’ self-management. A survey encompassing factors related to motivation in mHealth was conducted. Ease of use and sensory accuracy was found most important when choosing a wearable. Manual registration of most health-related ...

Nudge principles and techniques can motivate and improve personal health through emerging digital devices, such as activity trackers. Tracking people's health and well-being using such devices have earned widespread interest. These devices can continuously capture and analyze health-related data from individuals and communities in their everyday environment. Providing context-aware nudges can help ...
