📝 Abstract
Internet-of-Things (IoT) is profoundly redefining the way we create, consume, and share information. Health aficionados and citizens are increasingly using IoT technologies to track their sleep, food intake, activity, vital body signals, and other physiological observations. This is complemented by IoT systems that continuously collect health-related data from the environment and inside the living quarters. Together, these have created an opportunity for a new generation of healthcare solutions. However, interpreting data to understand an individual's health is challenging. It is usually necessary to look at that individual's clinical record and behavioral information, as well as social and environmental information affecting that individual. Interpreting how well a patient is doing also requires looking at his adherence to respective health objectives, application of relevant clinical knowledge and the desired outcomes. We resort to the vision of Augmented Personalized Healthcare (APH) to exploit the extensive variety of relevant data and medical knowledge using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to extend and enhance human health to presents various stages of augmented health management strategies: self-monitoring, self-appraisal, self-management, intervention, and disease progress tracking and prediction. kHealth technology, a specific incarnation of APH, and its application to Asthma and other diseases are used to provide illustrations and discuss alternatives for technology-assisted health management. Several prominent efforts involving IoT and patient-generated health data (PGHD) with respect converting multimodal data into actionable information (big data to smart data) are also identified. Roles of three components in an evidence-based semantic perception approach- Contextualization, Abstraction, and Personalization are discussed.

Introduction
Internet-‐of-‐Things
(IoT)
refers
to
network-‐enabled
technologies
including
mobile
and
wearable
devices,
sensing
and
actuation
devices
that
interact
with
each
other
and
communicate
over
the
internet.
IoT
is
profoundly
redefining
the
way
we
create,
consume,
and
share
information.
Health
aficionados
and
citizens
are
increasingly
using
IoT
technologies
to
track
their
sleep,
food
intake,
activity,
body
vital
signals,
and
other
physiological
observations.
This
is
complemented
by
IoT
systems
that
continuously
collect
data
from
the
environment
and
inside
the
living
quarters
that
can
affect
a
human
health.
Together,
these
have
created
an
opportunity
for
a
new
generation
of
healthcare
solutions.
The
paradigm
shift
of
reactive
medicine
to
proactive
and
preventive
medicine
is
primarily
motivated
by
economic
imperatives
such
as
the
rising
cost
of
healthcare,
as
well
as
continued
improvements
to
the
quality
of
life
and
longevity.
According
to
the
Center
for
Medicare
and
Medicaid
Services
(CMS),
the
cost
of
medical
care
in
the
US
in
2016
reached
up
to
3.6
trillion
dollars
per
year
and
is
expected
to
increase
up
to
$5.5
trillion
by
2025
[http://bit.ly/2ATjX3l].
On
the
other
hand,
the
global
smart
healthcare
industry
is
expected
to
reach
$169.30
billion
by
2020.
It
is
projected
that
by
2019,
87%
of
the
healthcare
organizations
in
the
US
will
have
adopted
IoT
technology
[http://bit.ly/2eP8wQo],
of
which
73%
will
be
used
to
reduce
cost,
and
64%
will
be
put
to
monitor
patients.
IoT
data
itself
is
not
adequate
to
understand
an
individual’s
health,
and
associated
aspects
of
wellbeing
and
fitness;
it
is
usually
necessary
to
look
at
that
individual's
clinical
record
and
behavioral
information,
as
well
as
social
and
environmental
information
affecting
that
individual.
Interpreting
how
well
a
patient
is
doing
also
requires
looking
at
his
adherence
to
respective
health
objectives,
application
of
relevant
clinical
knowledge
and
the
desired
outcomes,
such
as
the
patient’s
preference
for
quality
of
life
versus
longevity
and
expert
knowledge.
Augmented
Personalized
Healthcare
(APH)
is
a
vision

to
exploit
the
extensive
variety
of
relevant
data
and
medical
knowledge
using
Artificial
Intelligence
(AI)
techniques
to
extend
and
enhance
human
health
and
well-‐being.
It
anticipates
the
use
of
physical,
cyber,
and
social
data
obtained
from
wearables

clinical

Electronic
Medical

such
as

(e.g.

and
