The aging issue has become an important issue of the world, mostly because the aging body makes elderly people in high risk. Since falling is a common accident when getting off bed and bed activities can help estimate sleeping quality, it is desirable to monitor bed activities for elderly people sleeping on beds. In addition, the deployment should be simple for the practicability. In this work, a...
The high development of medicine causes the world's population aging quickly. To resolve the problem with limited medical resources, constant monitoring of elders' activity of daily living is important. We propose an activity recognition system for smart home, so elders can live alone and their children can monitor their parents' living activity to achieve the concept of "Aging in Place"...
In this work, an efficient data storage method of NoSQL database is proposed for mobile devices and Internet applications to monitor appliance status in a home environment in real-time, and a home energy management (HEM) mobile App for monitoring this information is also developed. An HBase cluster is constructed as a test bed for evaluation. The evaluation is conducted based on the developed APP...
In this paper, we propose a gait analysis based walking stabilization system on an active robotic walker for Parkinson's Disease patient. We developed a vision based gait analysis that lower limbs from the frontal view which is captured by single RGB-D camera on the robotic walker. Our system constructs the lower limbs skeleton and kinematic model for calculating the walking gait features such as...
Composing services in a pervasive environment usually involves user-in-the-loop adaption which is absent in most of the traditional enterprise service composition mechanisms. In such environment, the criteria for selecting and ranking services are usually specified by users, which tend to be vague and subjective. The criteria can be contradictory and the activated services can interfere with one another...
The work present in this paper focuses on using CBERS imagery data to acquire some information such as land use/cover change (LUCC) by means of remote sensing and GIS and to find out an appropriate classification method to CBERS imagery by applying and comparing some classification methods. CBERS CCD imageries of Xuzhou city in 2001, 2005 and 2008 were classified by using decision tree classifier,...
• Through the proposed method, the streamlined high-priority lots can be obtained with maximum information coverage and best KPI, and the model has good ability of abnormal discrimination. • Cost reduction by catching more abnormal events • Decreasing business impact to improve customer's satisfaction
In this paper, the networking architectures and information middleware of wireless sensor networks are developed to construct the heterogeneous information system platform for the real-time structural health monitoring application. The design and implementation of sensor firmware and networking middleware are the key study topics for WSN-based intelligent system platform. The networking gateway of...
