• Abstract summary: We present a system for extracting and collecting behavioral information on the individual-level objectively and automatically. The behavioral information is related to physical activity, types of visited places, and transportation mode used between them. The system has been developed and integrated in the context of the EU-funded BigO project that aims at preventing obesity in young populations.

• Abstract: Obesity is currently affecting very large portions of the global population. Effective prevention and treatment starts at the early age and requires objective knowledge of population-level behavior on the region/neighborhood scale. To this end, we present a system for extracting and collecting behavioral information on the individual-level objectively and automatically. The behavioral information is related to physical activity, types of visited places, and transportation mode used between them. The system employs indicator-extraction algorithms from the literature which we evaluate on publicly available datasets. The system has been developed and integrated in the context of the EU-funded BigO project that aims at preventing obesity in young populations.

  We use Brain-Computer Interfacing technology to infer users' preferences, their attentional correlates towards visual content, and their associations with affective experience. We link these to relevant applications, such as information retrieval, personalized steering of generative models, and crowdsourcing population estimates of affective experiences.

  TRiPOD is a novel method for predicting body dynamics based on graph attentional networks. To incorporate a real-world challenge, we learn an indicator representing whether an estimated body joint is visible/invisible at each frame. Our evaluation shows that TRiPOD outperforms all prior work and state-of-the-art specifically designed for each of the trajectory and pose forecasting tasks.
