• Abstract: Non-invasive mobile wearables like fitness trackers, smart watches and rings allow an easy and less expensive approach to study everyday human behaviour. This alternative approach not only supplements clinical studies, but also provides an opportunity to overcome some of the limitations in them. One of the major challenges faced by them is studying long-term human health and behaviour in realistic settings. Here we have utilised Oura rings to obtain granular data from nineteen healthy participants over the span of one year (October 2023 - September 2024) along with monthly surveys for nine months to track their subjective stress within the duration of the study. We have studied longitudinal sleep and activity patterns of three chronotype groups of participating individuals: morning type (MT), neither type (NT) and evening type (ET). We find that while ET individuals do not seem to lead as healthy life as the MT or NT individuals, they have seemingly improved their habits during the duration of the study. We also show that the Daylight Saving Time changes affect the chronotypes differently. Finally, by utilising mixed effects regression model, we have shown that the stress an individual experiences has a significant correlation with his or her total sleep duration, monthly survey response time, and age.

  We examine daily and weekly sleep and activity patterns of a cohort of young adults in their first semester of college. Most students have a late-night chronotype with a median midpoint of sleep at 5AM. Social jetlag, or the difference in sleep times between free days and school days, is prevalent in our sample.

  We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of data from 10,129 participants recruited from a UK-based general population. Participants shared wearable (Fitbit) data and self-reported questionnaires on depression (PHQ-8), anxiety (GAD-7), and mood via a study app. We observed significant associations between the severity of depression and anxiety with several factors, including mood, age, gender, BMI, sleep patterns, physical activity, and heart rate.

  This paper presents the approach and results of USC SAIL's submission to the Signal Processing Grand Challenge 2023 - e-Prevention (Task 2) on detecting relapses in psychotic patients. We investigate the use of sleep behavior features to estimate relapse days as outliers in an unsupervised machine learning setting. Our submission was ranked 3rd in the Task's official leaderboard, demonstrating the potential of such features as an objective and non-invasive predictor of psychotic relapses.
