A smartphone-based fall detection system
Stefano Abbate,Marco Avvenuti,Francesco Bonatesta,Guglielmo Cola,Paolo Corsini,Alessio Vecchio +5 more
TL;DR: A smartphone-based fall detection system that monitors the movements of patients, recognizes a fall, and automatically sends a request for help to the caregivers, to reduce the problem of false alarms.
Book ChapterDOI
Monitoring of Human Movements for Fall Detection and Activities Recognition in Elderly Care Using Wireless Sensor Network: a Survey
TL;DR: The problem with accidental falls among elderly people has massive social and economic impacts and underlines the importance of real-time monitoring and detection of a fall to enable first-aid by relatives, paramedics or caregivers as soon as possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new fuzzy relational clustering algorithm based on the fuzzy C-means algorithm
TL;DR: A new fuzzy relational algorithm, based on the popular fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm, is proposed, which does not require any particular restriction on the relation matrix.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Recognition of false alarms in fall detection systems
TL;DR: Using a single accelerometer, a novel approach is presented for improving the detection accuracy which is based on the idea of identifying specific movement patterns into the acceleration data and which can distinguish activities of daily living from real falls; thus the number of false alarms is reduced.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Increasing the efficiency of preamble sampling protocols for wireless sensor networks
TL;DR: This paper presents B-MAC+, an enhanced version of a widely adopted MAC protocol, and it is shown that substantial improvements, in terms of network lifetime, can be reached over the original protocol.
