A Machine Learning Approach to Detecting Low Medication State with Wearable Technologies.

Medication adherence is a critical component and implicit assumption of the patient life cycle that is often violated, incurring financial and medical costs to both patients and the medical system at large. As obstacles to medication adherence are complex and varied, approaches to overcome them must themselves be multifaceted.This paper demonstrates one such approach using sensor data recorded by an Apple Watch to detect low counts of pill medication in standard prescription bottles.
