Freezing of gait (FoG) is a common and disabling motor symptom in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), characterized by brief, episodic absence or marked reduction of forward progression of the feet despite the intention to walk. Patients often describe it as feeling as though their feet are “glu...

Psychological assessments often rely on subjective measures such as self-reports and interviews. However, recent advancements in computer vision and machine learning enable the extraction of objective biomarkers from video data, such as f...
Video-based animal re-identification has the potential to outperform image-based approaches by leveraging not only spatial but also temporal features. However, progress in this field is severely hindered by the lack of publicly available datasets. To address this, our group has developed one of the ...
This project aims to develop an open-source online platform in the domain of gaze and eye-tracking research. The platform will be hosted on GitBook/GitHub, enabling robust version control and collaboration. A key focus will be establishing interoperability standards. Additionally, the project will i...

Acute stress reliably activates, among other pathways, the sympathetic nervous system, leading to changes in heart rate (variability) (HR and HRV), respiration, pre-ejection period (PEP), and electrodermal activity (EDA). So far, these pa...
This work aims to investigate and analyze the intriguing properties exhibited by foundation models in deep learning, including vision, natural language processing (NLP), and multimodal models. The research intends to provide a comprehensive understanding of these properties to enhance the reliabilit...
