The Workshop on Emerging Devices in Digital Biomarkers (DigiBiom), collocated with MobiSys 2022, offers a unified forum that brings together academics, industry researchers, and medical practitioners together to discuss cutting-edge innovation in digital health. The workshop aims to facilitate a systematic discussion among experts from domains such as mobile sensing, systems, hardware design, machine learning, and medicine. The specific aims of the workshop include: (i) to identify novel sensing opportunities with devices that are currently ubiquitous, most notably smartphones and smartwatches; (ii) to identify opportunities in digital health involving emerging devices that are not so commonplace, such as headsets and on-body sensors; and (iii) to identify challenges and solutions related to the passive collection of digital biomarkers in areas like privacy, visualization, and computational efficiency. Possible categories of emerging devices may include, but are not limited to:
- Headsets (e.g., AR/VR headsets and smartglasses)
- On-body sensors (e.g., smart clothing and skin-worn sensors)
- Distributed sensors in the home (e.g., smartspeakers, doorways, toilets)
- Brain-computer interfaces
- Implants
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Novel hardware extensions of conventional devices like smartphones and wearables for health sensing
- Unconventional hardware for health sensing
- Unique biomarkers related to emerging devices
- Novel signal processing or machine learning techniques for processing sensor data related to emerging devices
- Comparative studies between conventional and emerging devices or multiple emerging devices
- Energy and resource efficient implementations for generating biomarkers specific to emerging devices
- Data privacy and security recommendations unique to emerging devices
- Data visualization unique to emerging devices
Submission Guidelines
All submissions must be original work not under review at any other workshop, conference, or journal. The workshop will accept papers describing completed work as well as work-in-progress. Submissions must be submitted as a PDF that is at most 6 pages in the double-column format specified at https://www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2022/sub.html. Please submit papers through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=digibiom22).
