Matthai Philipose builds sensor-based systems that allow computers to
understand and act on human state. He co-leads the Everyday Sensing and
Perception (ESP) project at Intel Research, which has the goal of
understanding 90% of a person's life at 90% accuracy using mobile
sensing. He has a strong subsidiary interest in applying such systems
to the long-term care of the elderly. To this end, he has collaborated
with Intel product groups, universities and government organizations
to build and field-test novel telecare systems. Matthai has a
