position in life in the context of the
culture and value systems in which
they live and in relation to their goals,
expectations, standards, and
concerns

Research study details
Exploratory analysis of behaviors: physical activity
N = 13 participants, aged 65+, enrolled for 6+ months, located in Spain and Hungary
Recommendation: 10K steps 3 times
per week or face chronic disease risk.
Reality: less than half met this threshold;
adjusted physical activity to 3K, 5K, 7K steps.

Research study details
Exploratory analysis of behaviors: sleep
N = 13 participants, aged 65+, enrolled for 6+ months, located in Spain and Hungary
Recommendation: 7 to 8 hours of sleep
or face chronic disease risk.
Reality: only half of the participants meet the
recommendations, many sleep under 7h

Planned research
Future behavior model simulation by leveraging a large dataset (N = 10K
participants, 3 years of participation) and deep neural networks: gated
recurrent units (GRU) and long short-term memory (LSTM) for time series, and
variational autoencoders (VAE) and generative adversarial networks (GAN) as
frameworks for behavior generation.

16. We think not
Indeed, data can show evidence of health and risks
Otherwise, we would never know
However, behaviors ultimately decide health
