Towards the Development of IoT Management in Human-in-the-Loop and Artificial Intelligence Systems
September 11, 2024
3:00-5:00 pm Beijing Time, 10:00-12:00 Kyiv summertime
This program presents and analyzes an innovative system to management Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms based on Human-in-the-Loop paradigms. Our solution was implemented and validated in a testbed that was also built to the monitorization of the surroundings of students in favor of improving their academic performances by using a Human-in-the-Loop AI systems. Therefore, the system is composed by a lot of different sensors that are incorporated in different physical devices. With this in mind, this program will also explore the concept of management of an IoT network of these heterogeneous devices and evaluate the path to follow, considering the components that already existed in the system.

Training for Volunteer Mental Health Promotion Agents at Work
3:00-5:00 pm Beijing Time, 10:00-12:00 Kyiv summertime
Governments and institutions are promoting research on suicide prevention. In order to achieve this goal, our team considers it essential to promote mental health in all areas (work, school, associations, media, etc.). The workplace, in which we invest much of our time and energy, is an ideal place to train volunteers to take action and recognize signs of mental health problems, as well as to provide support and refer employees to health services.
This program includes the following topics: Health, mental health and health at work; Facts about the problem of suicide, background and recognizable signs; Responsibility of each person to be aware of mental health first aid; Training for Health at Work volunteers; and How to measure effectiveness and replicate the experience in other settings.
The PROSAM (Promotion of Mental Health) research team is made up of researchers in psychopathology, medicine, education, information and communication technologies (ICTs) applied to health.
