The integration of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) frameworks with Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) has proven useful for monitoring and assisting older adults in their own home. However, the difficulties associated long-term deployments real-world complex environments are still highly under-explored. In this work, we first present MoveCare system, an unobtrusive platform that, through a SAR into AAL framework, aimed to monitor, assist provide social, cognitive, physical stimulation houses...
This study aimed at evaluating whether people with a normal cognitive function can be discriminated from subjects mild impairment of based on set acoustic features derived spontaneous speech. Voice recordings 90 Italian (age >65 years; group 1: 47 MMSE>26; 2: 43 20≤ MMSE ≤26) were collected. samples processed using MATLAB-based custom software to derive broad known features. Linear mixed model analyses performed select the able significantly distinguish between groups. The selected (%...
Background The rise in life expectancy is associated with an increase long-term and gradual cognitive decline. Treatment effectiveness enhanced at the early stage of disease. Therefore, there a need to find low-cost ecological solutions for mass screening community-dwelling older adults. Objective This work aims exploit automatic analysis free speech identify signs function Methods A sample 266 participants than 65 years were recruited Italy Spain divided into 3 groups according their...
This work introduces a novel method of automating the process patient-specific finite element (FE) model development using mapped mesh technique. The objective is to map predefined (template) high quality directly onto new bony surface (target) definition, thereby yielding similar with minimal user interaction. To bring template into correspondence target surface, deformable registration technique based on FE has been adopted. procedure made hierarchical allowing several levels refinement be...
Motions of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involve both translation and rotation; however, there may be substantial variations from one human to another, these present significant difficulties when designing TMJ prostheses. The disc-condyle glides along temporal bone condyle centre describe a curve that depends on individual morphology. This study analyses rotatory translatory displacements moving all facets which are mainly composed two areas: articular tubercle slope (ATS) preglenoid...
We present the development of a novel smart ink pen instrumented with force and motion sensors designed for quantitative ecological assessment daily-life handwriting. This work aims at testing pen's algorithms use smartpen to detect age-related changes in writing tremor parameters during A comparison against reference instruments was carried out validate tip static dynamic conditions, tilt angle, algorithm segmentation signal into strokes. The tested on 43 healthy adults divided three age...

The purpose of this study was to validate a 3D dynamic virtual model for lifting tasks against validated link segment (LSM). A face validation conducted by collecting x, y, z coordinate data and using them in both LSM models. An upper body needed calculate the torques about human joints use simulated styles estimate effect external mechanical devices on body. Firstly, had be sure it provided accurate estimates moments comparison previously LSM. Three synchronised Fastrak units with nine...
