Thanks to the availablity of preliminary labelled data from the City4Age Athens Pilot, MultiMed Engineers has started to work on Machine Learning algorithms to assess the potential of early detection of frailty in aging citizens, living in smart-cities.
MultiMed Engineers is experimenting the application of chat-bot technology to several business cases, including a NLP-based query language for a CRM database, and a conversational application to support a business-to-business “classifieds” system.
MultiMed Engineers, in cooperation with Università di Pavia, has presentend the City4Age Project to the European Geriatricians which were attending the EuGMS Congress 2017 held in Nice (France) on September 20-22, 2017.
The Project was presented as an extended abstract plus an oral presentation.
In additon, the City4Age Team attending the Conference was invited to take part at the founding workshop of the EUGMS’s Special Interest Group on Gerontechnology, in order to provide relevant insights and expertise.
In cooperation with Università di Pavia and Università del Salento, MultiMed Engineers has coauthored a paper titled Data driven MCI and frailty prevention: geriatric modelling in the City4Age project, presented at IEEE 3° International Forum on Research and Technologies for Society and Industry (RTSI 2017) held in Modena (Italy) on 11-13 September 2017. The paper presents the computational model, developed by MultiMed Engineers, Università di Pavia and Università del Salento, that drives early detection of aging conditions through unobtrusive collection of smart-city datasets.
MultiMed Engineers is participating in the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing — Action Group D4 Innovation for age friendly environments, with a specific committment to create a Comprehensive model for MCI, frailty and functional decline risk detection and interventions in smart cities environments.
MultiMed Engineers, with the support of Università di Pavia (Department of Internal Medicine and Therapeutics), has drafted the first version of the City4Age frailty and MCI risk model. This document, which is a public deliverable of the City4Age Project (D2.1), presents the selection of geriatrics indicators that are currently being used to elaborate the behavioural markers for MCI and frailty, envisaged by the Project.
In cooperation with Politecnico di Milano, MultiMed Engineers has coauthored a paper presented at theIEEE Second International Smart Cities Conference (ISC2 2016), held in Trento (Italy) on 12-15 September 2016. The paper, which is titled City4Age: Smart Cities for Health Prevention, discusses how data from smart cities and ad-hoc sensors can be harnessed for the prevention of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and frailty in aged people.
MultiMed Engineers has drafted the first version of the BD2Decide Communication plan and strategy. This document, which is a public deliverable of the BD2Decide Project (D9.2), illustrates the communication actions that are being enacted in order to effectively reach all actors categories targeted by the Project, with timely information on the status of the research endeavour and its results.
