This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) funds research to develop an intelligent wearable exercise reminder system called SOUVENIR. The project aims to create a computable theory of human motivation and behavioral change to increase compliance with prescribed therapeutic exercises after a stroke. The research leverages advances in behavioral medicine, computational modeling, and physical medicine and rehabilitation to assess patient motivation in real-time, adapt the challenge level of activities based on assessments and patient ability, and provide unobtrusive physical and textual cues to motivate exercise. The $179,053 award to Marquette University will support fundamental research, computational modeling, software engineering, user testing, and a feasibility demonstration over a 3-year period from August 2025 to July 2028. This project seeks to address the significant challenge of "learned non-use" after stroke, where survivors refrain from using their affected limbs despite retaining movement ability, by developing an explainable machine intelligence system to optimize personalized interventions and promote functional recovery.
