As the world's aging population grows, fall is becoming a major problem in public health. It is one of the most vital risk to the elderly. Many technology based fall detection systems have been developed in recent years with hardware ranging from wearable devices to ambience sensors and video cameras. Several machine learning based fall detection classifiers have been developed to process sensor data...
Prospective memory, the ability to remember doing future tasks without being reminded, is a critical ability in everyday life. As the elderly are vulnerable to age-related declines in prospective memory, it is important to prevent this decline in advance. In this demonstration, we develop an agent-based game for practicing prospective memory. It can potentially provide a convenient and natural way...
The ageing population and shrinking pool of labor is posing a critical threat to sustainable economic capacities of many developed and developing countries. The challenge calls for new aging technologies, particularly AI innovations, to be introduced to enable aging-workforce good health, aging labor market participation, and aging-worker security known as active aging in the workplace (AAiW). This...
With the world population aging rapidly, improving the quality of life for senior citizens has become an important societal issue. Parkinson's Disease (PD) is one of the most debilitating neuro-degenerative disorders that seriously affect the seniors' quality of life. In recent years, video games have been shown to be a viable way through which partial rehabilitation for PD can be carried out in a...
