Long-term behavioral modal observation and risk warning in the elderly

P

opulation aging is a common problem facing all over

the world. China has the biggest elderly population in

the world. China's population structure has started to show

an inverted pyramid trend since 2010. Human resources

for aged care are seriously insufficient. At the same time,

due to the increase in the number of empty nested families

and families that lost their only child, traditional home care

functions are gradually disintegrating, most of the elderlies

lives by themselves in most of the time. The elderly

population faces many risks, such as falls, falling from bed,

cardiovascular and cerebrovascular incidents. Prevention,

in-time detection and management of these situations are

critical to the life safety of the elderlies. How to ensure

the safety of the elderly population in the case of limited

human resources has become an important practical issue.

Therefore, we focused on developing an intelligent system

that can acquire, identify and analyze the behavior of the

elderly and promptly alert the abnormalities. Meanwhile,

corresponding emergency response and nursing protocol

are developed. At present, the technologies for intelligent

monitoring and early warning of the elderly mainly include:

Wearable devices, 2D cameras and sensors. For wearable

devices, the elderlies are easy to forget to wear, and the

effect will be compromised; 2D cameras are sensitive to

changes in lighting, and privacy is a great concern; Sensors

are relatively expensive for most of the families in China.

We tried to develop a new strategy using deep camera

combined with machine learning technology. It does not

affect the daily life of the elderly or change the living

habits of the elderly and be work around the clock. Alert

will be triggered when accidents like falling or fall off the

bed happens. Moreover, interpretation of the uploaded

data will provide evidence for personalized intelligent care.
