Deep Learning for Classifying Physical Activities from Accelerometer Data
2021
Physical inactivity increases the risk of many adverse health conditions, including the world’s major non-communicable diseases, such as coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and breast and colon cancers, shortening life expectancy. There are minimal medical care and personal trainers’ methods to monitor a patient’s actual physical activity types. To improve activity monitoring, we propose an artificial-intelligence-based approach to classify the physical movement activity patterns. In more detail, we employ two deep learning (DL) methods, namely a deep feed-forward neural network (DNN) and a deep recurrent neural network (RNN) for this purpose. We evaluate the proposed models on two phy…
MOTOR COORDINATION DIFFICULTIES IN CHILDREN WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES
2016
Nowadays increasing the number of children with learning disabilities in comprehensive schools of Latvia, so it is necessary preventive measures during schooltime. One of the support measures are short movement activity in academic lessons. The aim of article is theoretical analyze the correlations between motor coordination difficulties and the child's academic achievement and find out primary school teachers' views on possible support for children with learning disabilities. Main findings – development of motor coordination in children of primary schools is effective when using short movement breaks in classroom. Research methods: analysis of scientific and methodological literature, a su…
