An altered sleep pattern is often one of the general symptoms experienced by people with dementia. The quantity and quality of sleep may be a reflection of their dementia condition and affect the quality of life for people with dementia. In this paper we present our research in using sensor based technology for a telecare service to monitor daily activities over a period of three months for one healthy...
This paper proposes the sleep stage estimation method that can provide more accurate estimation than the conventional method and is robust to bad condition of humans without connecting any devices to human's body. Our proposed method can extract the specific wave pattern required to estimate the sleep stage from heart beat data. Through the intensive simulations by using the actual data of the human...
For home based health-care and wellness management the considerations of extensibility and personalization are very important. In this paper we present an architectural framework for health-care and wellness management, and illustrate its use with a sleep activity pattern monitoring application. The key benefits of our architectural framework are that new sensors and sensing modalities as well as...
Americans are living longer, and research shows that seniors are embracing independence, and will benefit from living in the same place. These are the rationale for 'Aging in Place' and the development of Tiger Place, an 'Aging in Place' Environment in Columbia Missouri. Our goal is to minimize intrusion, allow the resident complete control over privacy and treatment (if any), and to provide substantive...
