Development of a self-learning machine learning pipeline for a mobile application supporting sports activity

Context

In our Medical Information Technology (MIT) department, we are involved in several research projects related to wearable biosensors. As an intern or university student, you would have the opportunity to work with vital sensor data and apply your technical skills to develop innovative algorithms using machine learning.

The goal of our research project is to implement a self-learning prediction model based on multimodal data sources (acceleration measurement, e-daily rating, GPS signals) using machine learning methods, which can be used to determine the correct trigger time for a behavior change.

In this research project, you will work on cutting-edge technologies in sports and health sciences using advanced biosensor data (ECG, accelerometer, barometer, thoracic impedance, etc.) from wearable sensors to detect physical activity and improve sleep quality. Whether you're interested in machine learning or cutting-edge wearable sensor technology, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to the development of innovative systems that can revolutionize the way we classify activity and analyze sleep using wearable sensors.

Join our team and make a real impact on the world through your research and development efforts!
