Abstract

Old people, who are living alone at home face serious problem of Falls while moving from one place to another and sometime life threading also. In order to prevent this situation, several fall monitoring systems based on sensor data were proposed. However, there was an issue of misclassification to identify the fall as daily life activities and also routine activity as fall. Towards this end, a deep learning based model is proposed in this paper by using the data of heart rate, BP and sugar level to identify fall along with other daily life activities like walking, running jogging etc. For accurate identification of fall accidents, a publicly accessible data collection and a lightly weighted CNN model are used. The model reports proposed and 98.21 % precision.
