Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the success of the first edition of our Special Issue entitled “Sensors Network and Wearables for People Activities and Wellbeing Monitoring”, we invite our colleagues from across the world to contribute their expertise, insight, and findings in the form of original research articles and reviews for the second edition of this issue.
The development of sensor networks and wearable technologies over the past few years has made it possible to extract information on activities and behavioural parameters of people using low-cost and non-invasive systems. Indeed, the gathered data can be processed with dedicated techniques, often based on artificial intelligence technologies. The monitoring of activities through non-invasive sensor networks and wearable sensors can depict wellbeing, comfort, and global health status of users in living environments, both indoors and outdoors.
In this Special Issue, we invite authors to submit papers presenting innovative solutions and signal processing techniques, such as artificial intelligence, that measure the wellbeing and activities of people in living environments, both indoors and outdoors, through sensor networks and wearable sensors. Papers should properly consider accuracy in the measurement of such quantities.
