Abstract

An extended framework for Android smartphones is employed to obtain objective and subjective measures of relevant lifestyle parameters. Participants were recruited from two very dissimilar environments: the city of Istanbul as one of the largest mega cities worldwide and the rural district of Mersin in the south-eastern part of Turkey. Correlation analysis between subjective ratings and objective sensor data features is performed to illustrate the potential of an automatic detection of health-relevant lifestyle parameters.

Keywords: healthy lifestyle smartphone urban rural
