Delivering the EpiDeNet oral presentation at IEEE BioCAS 2023

Abstract

In Toronto I presented two pieces of our wearable EEG research: an oral talk on EpiDeNet, our gradient-boosted seizure detector with Sensitivity-Specificity Weighted Cross-Entropy, and a poster on SkiLog, a smart insole system that delivers real-time biofeedback to ski jumpers. Both projects push the boundary of what is possible on ultra-low-power hardware, highlighting how adaptive ML pipelines can move entirely on-device.
