Wearable healthcare technologies are transforming the healthcare landscape by enabling remote, real-time health data collection, supporting early diagnosis, personalizing treatment plans, and reducing healthcare costs and medical burdens. Central to these advancements are wearable sensors, which continuously capture physiological data such as heart rate, temperature, activity levels, and biomarker concentrations. However, the large volume and complexity of this data demand effective processing to extract meaningful medical insights. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have significantly enhanced the capabilities of wearable sensors by enabling advanced data analysis, pattern recognition, and predictive modeling. AI-enhanced wearable sensors can detect early signs of health issues, such as heart attacks, chronic diseases, and mental health conditions like stress, often before clinical symptoms become apparent. This review examines the integration of AI/ML models with wearable sensors across physical activity recognition, stress assessment, cardiovascular monitoring, personal exposure monitoring, and sweat biomarker detection. Unlike prior application-centered reviews, we emphasize methodological and translational evaluation by comparing task formulations, sensing modalities, dataset scale, validation protocols, performance metrics, and deployment constraints across domains. We further discuss advanced architectures, multimodal fusion, explainable AI, edge deployment, privacy and regulatory considerations, and the translational gap between research prototypes and clinically deployable wearable AI systems.

This study explores three approaches to processing table data in scientific papers to enhance extractive question answering and develop a software tool for the systematic review process. The methods evaluated include: (1) Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for extracting information from documents, (2) Pre-trained models for document visual question answering, and (3) Table detection and structure recognition to extract and merge key information from tables with textual content to answer extractive questions. In exploratory experiments, we augmented ten sample test documents containing tables and relevant content against RF- EMF-related scientific papers with seven predefined extractive question-answer pairs. The results indicate that approaches preserving table structure outperform the others, particularly in representing and organizing table content. Accurately recognizing specific notations and symbols within the documents emerged as a critical factor for improved results. Our study concludes that preserving the structural integrity of tables is essential for enhancing the accuracy and reliability of extractive question answering in scientific documents.

This study introduces a novel dataset for segmenting flooded areas in satellite images. After reviewing 77 existing benchmarks utilizing satellite imagery, we identified a shortage of suitable datasets for this specific task. To fill this gap, we collected satellite imagery of the 2019 Midwestern USA floods from Planet Explorer by Planet Labs (Image \c{opyright} 2024 Planet Labs PBC). The dataset consists of 10 satellite images per location, each containing both flooded and non-flooded areas. We selected ten locations from each of the five states: Iowa, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and South Dakota. The dataset ensures uniform resolution and resizing during data processing. For evaluating semantic segmentation performance, we tested state-of-the-art models in computer vision and remote sensing on our dataset. Additionally, we conducted an ablation study varying window sizes to capture temporal characteristics. Overall, the models demonstrated modest results, suggesting a requirement for future multimodal and temporal learning strategies. The dataset will be publicly available on .
