Design a Hierarchical System for Monitoring Mobility Changes of the Elderly Using Intelligent Analysis

“…The processing should detect and compensate for or reject errors, extract specific features from the monitored parameters (including, e.g., long-term trends), and provide necessary alarms. As this kind of long-term monitoring system has not been previously available, there are only few references available about specific problems related to processing of such data [22][23][24]. In the future, development of automated and robust screening and analysis methods for this kind of data will become an interesting branch of biomedical signal processing.…”

Privacy Preserving Mechanisms for a Pervasive eHealth System

“…Usage of sensors for monitoring health parameters or activity and raising alarms has been discussed in [4], [3], [2] and [5]. The sensors record different parameters ranging from user-indicated alarms [9], EEG, ECG signals to location data [1]. The optimal selection of parameters to be monitored is discussed in [8].…”

A Generic Architecture for Integrating Health Monitoring and Advanced Care Provisioning

“…The network is organized hierarchically and individual sensors monitor specific physiological signals (such as EEG, ECG, GSR,etc.). [15] describes a monitoring system for the elderly that provides alarm functionality. It consists of a wrist device detecting user indicated alarms.…”
