Smart homes have been recently important sources for providing Activity of Daily Living (ADL) data about their residents. ADL data can be a great asset while analyzing residents' behavior to provide residents with better and optimized services. A popular example is to analyze residents' behavior to predict their future activities and optimize smart homes performance accordingly. This paper proposes a forecasting framework that utilizes ADL data to predict residents' next activities in a smart home environment. Forecasting is performed via the conjunction of embedding algorithm to encode the data and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) deep neural networks to process the data. The proposed framework is evaluated over five real ADL datasets where the experiments show the outperformance of the proposed framework with accuracy scores ranging from 98.7% to 93.8%.
