The problem of which cues, internal or external, permit a person to label and identify his own emotional state has been with us since the days that James (1890) first tendered his doctrine that \"the bodily changes follow directly the perception of the exciting fact, and that our feeling of the same changes as they occur is the emotion\" (p. 449). Since we are aware of a variety of feeling and emotion states, it should follow from James' proposition that the various emotions will be accompanied by a variety of differentiable bodily states. Following James' pronouncement, a formidable number of studies were undertaken in search of the physiological differentiators of the emotions. The results, in these early days, were almost uniformly negative. All of the emotional states experi-

Implementing Early Intervention in Psychosis: A Guide to Establishing Early Psychosis Services

Speech emotion recognition is a challenging task and heavily depends on hand-engineered acoustic features, which are typically crafted to echo human perception of speech signals. However, a filter bank that is designed from perceptual evidence is not always guaranteed to be the best in a statistical modelling framework where the end goal is for example emotion classification. This has fuelled the emerging trend of learning representations from raw speech especially using deep learning neural networks. In particular, a combination of Convolution Neural Networks (CNNs) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) have gained great traction for the intrinsic property of LSTM in learning contextual information crucial for emotion recognition; and CNNs been used for its ability to overcome the scalability problem of regular neural networks. In this paper, we show that there are still opportunities to improve the performance of emotion recognition from the raw speech by exploiting the properties of CNN in modelling contextual information. We propose the use of parallel convolutional layers to harness multiple temporal resolutions in the feature extraction block that is jointly trained with the LSTM based classification network for the emotion recognition task. Our results suggest that the proposed model can reach the performance of CNN trained with hand-engineered features from both IEMOCAP and MSP-IMPROV datasets.

Direct modelling of speech emotion from raw speech

The digital revolution in medicine not only offers exciting new directions for the treatment of mental illness, but also presents challenges to patient privacy and security. Changes in medicine are part of the complex digital economy based on creating value from analysis of behavioral data acquired by the tracking of daily digital activities. Without an understanding of the digital economy, recommending the use of technology to patients with mental illness can inadvertently lead to harm. Behavioral data are sold in the secondary data market, combined with other data from many sources, and used in algorithms that automatically classify people. These classifications are used in commerce and government, may be discriminatory, and result in non-medical harm to patients with mental illness. There is also potential for medical harm related to poor quality online information, self-diagnosis and self-treatment, passive monitoring, and the use of unvalidated smartphone apps. The goal of this paper is to increase awareness and foster discussion of the new ethical issues. To maximize the potential of technology to help patients with mental illness, physicians need education about the digital economy, and patients need help understanding the appropriate use and limitations of online websites and smartphone apps.

Mobile activity recognition and fall detection system for elderly people using Ameva algorithm

Opportunistic affect sensing offers unprecedented potential for capturing spontaneous affect, eliminating biases inherent in the controlled setting. Facial expression and voice are two major affective displays, but most affect sensing systems on smartphones avoid them due to extensive power requirements. Encouragingly, due to the recent advent of low-power DSP coprocessor and GPU technology, audio and video sensing are becoming more feasible on smartphones. To utilize opportunistically captured facial expressions and voice, gathering contextual information about the dynamic audiovisual stimuli is also important. This article discusses recent advances in affect sensing on smartphones and identifies the key barriers and potential solutions for implementing opportunistic and context-aware affect sensing on smartphone platforms. In addition to exploring the technical challenges (privacy, battery life, and robust algorithms), the authors also consider the challenges of recruiting and retaining mental health patients. Experimentation with mental health patients is difficult but crucial to showcase the importance and effectiveness of smartphone-centered affect sensing technology.

Opportunistic and Context-Aware Affect Sensing on Smartphones

Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the process of improving early psychosis services in a generic Victorian adult area mental health service from 1998 to 2004 and to give consideration to whether to implement a first presentation psychosis clinical pathway and how that should be done.Method: A description will be given of the quality improvement process and practical difficulties in the sequential implementation of guidelines then pathways for early psychosis.Results: We experienced many of the commonly reported difficulties in quality improvement and implementation of evidence-based practice in real clinical settings.Conclusions: Developing and implementing an evidence-based first presentation psychosis clinical pathway was a difficult but rewarding learning experience.

Due to increasing sensing capacity, smartphones offer unprecedented opportunity to monitor human health. Affect sensing is one such essential monitoring that can be achieved on smartphones. Information about affect can be useful for many modern applications. In particular, it can be potentially used for understanding cognitive decline in aging population. In this paper we present an overview of the existing literature that offer affect sensing on smartphone platform. Most importantly, we present the challenges that need to be addressed to make affect sensing on smartphone a reality.

Affect Sensing on Smartphone - Possibilities of Understanding Cognitive Decline in Aging Population

A worldwide increase in proportions of older people in the population poses the challenge of managing their increasing healthcare needs within limited resources. To achieve this many countries are interested in adopting telehealth technology. Several shortcomings of state-of-the-art telehealth technology constrain widespread adoption of telehealth services. We present an ensemble-sensing framework - wHealth (short form of wireless health) for effective delivery of telehealth services. It extracts personal health information using sensors embedded in everyday devices and allows effective and seamless communication between patients and clinicians. Due to the non-stigmatizing design, ease of maintenance, simplistic interaction and seamless intervention, our wHealth platform has the potential to enable widespread adoption of telehealth services for managing elderly healthcare. We discuss the key barriers and potential solutions to make the wHealth platform a reality.
