Medical Condition Assessment of Patients with Disabilities Based on Daily Activity Analysis

In this paper is presented a general approach for the medical condition assessment of patients with disabilities. It is based on daily activity analysis using common accelerometer sensors carried by the monitored person while at home without medical personnel present. Six types of activities are being investigated using the k-NN classifier after initial pre-processing of the raw input data followed by additional reduction in dimension and thus recognition time. Promising results are obtained which could bring useful statistics for the progress of the medical state of the observed individual over prolonged time.
