Bed Exit Prediction

This report presents a bed exit prediction model using a decision tree classifier, a machine learning method. This system is designed to alarm a caregiver in a nursing home to prevent bed­ falls among institutionalized elderly. For the input of this algorithm, features are derived from four force sensing resistor sensors and six piezoelectric...

Intracardiac Echocardiography for Transvenous Lead Extractions: Evaluating its Utility in a Vascular Phantom Model

Transvenous lead extractions (TLEs) are minimally invasive procedures in which pacing or implantable cardioverter defibrillator leads are extracted under guidance of 2D X-ray fluoroscopy. Despite the fact that fluoroscopy is currently the gold standard for TLEs, it has several limitations in terms of visualization of anatomical structures, areas...

AiRO: Direct Reverse Osmosis On Surface Water

Surface water is microbiological unsafe, contains too much salts and is polluted with anthropogenic substances like pesticides, medicines, endocrine disruptors and industrial chemicals. The production of safe drinking water out of this water is only possible by applying a robust treatment. A process that can remove virtually all unwanted...
