Publication number: 20240120085Abstract: Existing systems for behavioural tracking and identification have the disadvantage that they do not analyse data in behavioural aspects. As a result, they lack ability to pre-empt scenarios involving actions that adversely affect user health. The disclosure herein generally relates to behavior prediction, and, more particularly, to a method and system for identifying unhealthy behavior trigger and providing nudges. The system generates a casual inference model, which is a reverse causality model facilitating mapping of context with one or more behaviour of the user. The system further collects and processes real-time data using the casual inference model, to perform behavioral analysis of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: VIVEK CHANDEL, AVIK GHOSE, MAYURI DUGGIRALA, ARNAB CHATTERJEE, SAKYAJIT BHATTACHARYA

Publication number: 20230154621Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to real time analysis of range of motion (ROM), wherein ROM is a measurement of movement around a specific joint or body part. The existing techniques for ROM fail for measurements made in certain planes and are not very effective for ROM measurements for extremely slow and very fast movements. The disclosed provides a real time analysis of ROM based on computation of range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters using a gyroscope. The gyroscope collects data from a subject at pre-defined neutral position of the subject as well as a pre-defined rotation movement of a joint of the subject. The received data is corrected for bias and processed at real time to analyze the ROM by computing range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2022Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Vivek CHANDEL, Avik GHOSE, Murali Poduval

The breathing analysis includes (a) estimating exhale period-inhale period, (b) estimating the breathing rate and (c) determining the type of breathing. A PDA such as a smartphone is used receive accelerometer data from a subject. The received data is pre-processed in several steps including estimating a plurality of parameters, identifying a plurality of breathing cycles. The breathing cycles of the subject are further analyzed at real time based on the plurality of parameters to provide the breathing analysis of a subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2022Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Vivek CHANDEL, Avik GHOSE

Patent number: 11558710Abstract: Conventionally, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)-based solutions have been extensively devised in the domains of indoor localization and context-aware applications. These solutions are primarily based on a path-loss attenuation model, with customizations on RSSI processing and are usually regression-based. Further, existing solutions for distance and proximity estimation incorporate data features derived only from the RSSI values themselves with additional features like frequency of occurrence of certain RSSI values thus are less accurate. Present disclosure provides systems and methods that implement a classification model that uses RSSI as well as temporal features derived from the received data packets. The model uses data from multiple devices in different environments for training and can execute proximity decisions on the device itself.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2021Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES LIMITEDInventors: Vivek Chandel, Snehasis Banerjee, Avik Ghose

Publication number: 20220344055Abstract: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the pandemics of modern era and are generating huge impact in the modern society. Conventional methods are inaccurate due to a challenge in handling data from heterogenous sensors. The present disclosure is capable of tracking fitness parameters of a user even with heterogenous sensors. Initially, the system receives a raw data from a plurality of heterogenous sensors associated with the user.

Patent number: 11350851Abstract: The present disclosure provides wearable apparatus and method for calculating drift-free plantar pressure parameters for gait monitoring of an individual. Most conventional techniques use different kind of sensors placed in in-sole based wearable apparatus but are costly and not effective in calculating accurate plantar pressure parameters. The disclosed wearable apparatus uses off-the shelf piezoelectric sensors that are widely available in market with less cost. The drift-free plantar pressure parameters are calculated using drift-free static pressure data obtained by numerically integrating acquired dynamic sensor data from the piezoelectric sensors, using a LiTCEM correction mechanism. A 6-DOF Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU sensor) helps in isolating zero-pressure duration indicating when a foot of the individual is in air during a stride, while obtaining the drift-free static pressure data.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2020Date of Patent: June 7, 2022Assignee: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Vivek Chandel, Shivam Singhal, Avik Ghose

Patent number: 10823755Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods that establish non-linear components of gyroscope errors which have not been studied or explored earlier. These errors include but are not limited to non-linear dynamic error which is a function of the angular velocity itself. Bias instability has been observed within the same environment of temperature and atmospheric pressure. In other words, the embodiments of the present disclosure analyse and models static bias errors and dynamic non-linear errors in the gyroscope sensor which may be used to model and correct errors accordingly In subsequent measurements. The system provide solution(s) when there is no way of directly estimating temperature for bias correction of gyroscope, by estimating a temperature change by considering indirect measurements from other sensors present onboard the device.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2018Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Vivek Chandel, Kartik Muralidharan, Avik Ghose, Archan Misra
