Our lab's work is very inter-disciplinary and often cuts across domains. Thus, it is often hard to put our work into discrete buckets. Still, in case you are interested in learning about our work in a particular area, we have tried to categorize our work into four broad categories: Health Sensing, Activity Recognition, Privacy-aware Sensing, New Interfaces, and Situational Impairments. Many publications are in overlapping areas and you will find those publications in multiple categories.
