LSF-ANIMAL: A Motion Capture Corpus in French Sign Language Designedfor the Animation of Signing Avatars

L. Naert, C. Larboulette, S. Gibet

A MoCap dataset of body movements for French sign language is collected and will be used for animating a signing avatar. Dataset is evaluated by people, including native signers. 2 signers made guestures for 4 subsets of words and actions which were captured by Motion capture system and annotated using ELAN software.

Intonation and speech rate in Parkinson's disease: general and dynamic aspects and responsiveness to levodopa admission.

S. Skodda, W. Grönheit, U. Schlegel

This work aims to analyze fundamental frequency (F(0)) variability (fundamental frequency standard deviation [F(0)SD]) and net speech rate (NSR) in the course of reading in Parkinsonian patients' speech. German speaking patients with Parkinson's disease went through a reading task, and they were recorded.

Unbiased and Mobile Gait Analysis Detects Motor Impairment in Parkinson's Disease

J. Klucken, J. Barth

A machine learning classifier to automatically detect motor impariment in patients with Parkinson's disease is constructed. To train the classifier a dataset of gait movements measured by acclerometer is collected. A mobile biosensor attached to the foot, eGaIT, is used to collect accelerometer, gyroscopes data during standarized gait and leg functions. Two participant groups are used to collect independent training and validation datasets.

Providing good memory cues for people with episodic memory impairment

Matthew L. Lee, Anind K. Dey

This work studies best memory cues for aiding individuals with episodic memory impairment to inform the design of lifelogging technologies for automatically capturing and extracting the cues and supporting recollection of episodic memory. Each participant wore a SenseCam for a session of any particular activity of 2-8 hours respectively. The SenseCam took images every 2 minutes from a first-person perspective, then they were shown time distributed samples of 100 images and their descriptions about the images were collected.
