Abstract

In these days the population of elderly people grows faster and faster and most of them are rather preferred independent living at their homes. Thus a new and better approaches are necessary for improving the life quality of the elderly with the help of modern technology. In this chapter we shall propose a video based monitoring system to analyze the daily activities of elderly people with independent living at their homes. This approach combines data provided by the video cameras with data provided by the multiple environmental data based on the type of activity. Only normal activity or behavior data are used to train the stochastic model. Then decisions are made based on the variations from the model results to detect the abnormal behaviors. Some experimental results are shown to confirm the validity of proposed method in this paper.
