AI/ML and accelerometry devices

Professor Simon Smith leads the Sleep and Health Group at ISSR, with the broad aim to bridge the biological and social sciences for community benefit.

His research team uses AI/ML to analyse accelerometry and other indicators of behavioural rhythmicity in natural settings to differentiate and understand sleep-wake and activity states.

Wrist-worn devices (including clinical, research, and consumer devices) can provide a high volume of meaningful data about everyday routines.

Professor Smith’s research team leads a study seeking to classify high frequency activities (e.g. on-road driving) from actigraphy using contemporary AI/ML approaches.
