Smart Sensing for Pervasive Health

Dear Colleagues,

Recent advances on sensor technologies and their pervasiveness allow the development of numerous applications and services to improve people’s health. This Special Issue invites papers presenting novel research on utilizing sensors placed on users’ bodies and in their environments to understand and improve their health and wellbeing. We are interested in sensing devices, methods, and applications for obtaining and analyzing different categories of data (physiological, behavioral, emotional, environmental, etc.), and utilizing different technologies such as signal processing, machine learning, etc. for empowering citizens and health professionals to take action based on the analyzed sensor data.

This Special Issue is supported by the WideHealth Project, which is a European TWINNING project (No. 952279) that supports dissemination activities on the topics of eHealth and Pervasive health, and aims to enable a new generation of researchers on the aforementioned topics.
