Evaluating the Role of Learning and Experience on Postural Response and Fall Prevention in Offshore Environments

Slips, trips, and falls (STFs) are a major concern in occupational environments, accounting for a significant portion of all reported work-related injuries. These concerns are even greater in moving environments, like those of Newfoundland and Labrador’s offshore petroleum industry. This proposed research aims to address the industry’s STF concerns through analysis of worker’s postural responses […]

Feature selection Impact on Models’ Performance

Data is rapidly growing in most of the applications and fields. Thus, data is becoming big data as it meets the 5V model of big data: volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value. As a result, dimensionality reduction and feature selection become mandatory to overcome ML models’ performance and explainability issues. This project looks at feature […]
