Abstract:

<p> The field of drowsiness detection is gaining more attention these days. An estimate by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states that the total number of people falling asleep on the wheel is increasing day by day. If there is an effective way to monitor this condition and alert the drivers, many fatal accidents can be prevented. This thesis work elaborates on one such simple, yet effective drowsiness detection algorithm, the HRV - Heart Rate Variability analysis. Many psychological researchers have found out that when a person becomes drowsy, there is a variation in their hear

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine heart rate variability (HRV) alteration after the injection of atropine and saline and to determine if ensemble averaging affects the outcome of frequency domain analysis. The HRV data is pre-processed using ensemble averaging and then frequency domain and statistical analysis is done. The HRV readings originate from a previous study of four rats. Ensemble averaging reduces the mean drift effect in the data. The original and ensemble is then processed through an Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The results show that the ensembled data allows frequency peaks and

At the time of writing, stress and stress related disease have become the most common reasons for absence in the workplace in Sweden. The purpose of the work presented here is to identify and notify people managing unhealthy levels of stress. Since symptoms of mental stress manifest through functions of the Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS), they are best measured through monitoring of SNS changes and phenomena. In this study, changes in the sympathetic control of heart rate were recorded and analyzed using heart rate variability analysis and a simple runner’s heart rate sensor connected to a s

Chronic stress is a prevalent and universally present hazard in modern society. It lowers the quality of life for individuals and significantly con- tributes to unsustainable health care costs. Therefore it is important to have natural and noninvasive ways of controlling stress. One such way is meditation, a technique which has been practiced for over five thousand years to improve stress regulation. Also, proceedings in sensing technologies lead to the discovery of biofeedback as another cost-effective technique for stress assessment and reduction. In continuation of research on real-time ref

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis has been garnering attention from researchers due to its wide range of applications. Medical researchers have always been interested in Heart Rate (HR) and HRV analysis, but nowadays, investigators from variety of other fields are also probing the subject. For instance, variation in HR and HRV is connected to emotional arousal. Therefore, knowledge from the fields of affective computing and psychology, can be employed to devise machines that understand the emotional states of humans.

Abstract:

Cette thèse porte sur l’analyse spatiale de problèmes de santé publique rencontrés en Afrique subsaharienne. Dans une première étude, nous avons analysé les variations spatiales de la prévalence du VIH au Burundi et les déterminants socio-comportementaux chez les personnes âgées de 15 à 49 ans à partir des données de l’Enquête Démographique et de Santé (EDS) de 2010. Dans une deuxième étude, nous avons analysé l’évolution de la répartition spatiale de la prévalence du retard de croissance chez les enfants âgés de moins de 3 ans en Côte d’Ivoire à partir des données des EDS de 1994, 1998-1999 e

Abstract:

La recherche de facteurs génétiques de susceptibilité aux infections virale dans des populations générales exhaustives endémiques est une approche originale en épidémiologie génétique. Nos travaux de thèse nous ont permis d’établir, dans une population endémique pour deux virus oncogènes MCPyV et HHV-8 au Cameroun et dans une population endémique pour le VHC en Egypte, plusieurs arguments forts en faveur d’une susceptibilité génétique aux infections par les virus oncogènes humains définies par la séropositivité/ séronégativité vis-à-vis du virus impliqué. Concernant l’infection par le MCPyV, d
