<span>The world population of the elderly is expected to have a continuous growth and the number of elderly living in solitude is also expected to increase in the coming years. As our health decline with age, early detection of possible deterioration in health becomes important. Behavioral changes in in-home activities can be used as an indicator of health decline. For example, changes in routine of in-home activities. Past research mainly focused on detecting anomalies in routine of each type of in-home activities individually. In this paper, an anomaly detection model to detect changes in routine of in-home activities collectively for a day is proposed. The experiment was evaluated with an existing public dataset. The experimental results demonstrated that the anomaly detection model performed well on unseen testing data with an accuracy of 94.44%.</span>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
