Detecting Irregular Patterns in IoT Streaming Data for Fall Detection
Detecting patterns in real time streaming data has been an interesting and
challenging data analytics problem. With the proliferation of a variety of
sensor devices, real-time analytics of data from the Internet of Things (IoT)
to learn regular and irregular patterns has become an important machine
learning problem to enable predictive analytics for automated notification and
decision support. In this work, we address the problem of learning an irregular
human activity pattern, fall, from streaming IoT data from wearable sensors. We
present a deep neural network model for detecting fall based on accelerometer
data giving 98.75 percent accuracy using an online physical activity monitoring
dataset called "MobiAct", which was published by Vavoulas et al. The initial
model was developed using IBM Watson studio and then later transferred and
deployed on IBM Cloud with the streaming analytics service supported by IBM
Streams for monitoring real-time IoT data. We also present the systems
architecture of the real-time fall detection framework that we intend to use
with mbientlabs wearable health monitoring sensors for real time patient
monitoring at retirement homes or rehabilitation clinics.Comment: 7 page
IoT based Health Care System for Cholera Infection
The healthcare is a significant issue which is concerned with every human being. The hitch which exists now days is lack of time. Some diseases are reparative, and some are fatal in nature. The proposed paper deals with Cholera which is an infection of the small intestine. Cholera infection could be sewage, and its cure in the form of medicines is available. In our proposed system, the user will enter some parameters to diagnose disease. The parameters entered by the user should be stored in a cloud database. These entered parameters will be analyzed by a doctor to diagnose the level of disease. The information presented by the user will be secured since it is protected through authorization. Unauthorized users will not be able to access information stored in a cloud database
Wiki-health: from quantified self to self-understanding
Today, healthcare providers are experiencing explosive growth in data, and medical imaging represents a significant portion of that data. Meanwhile, the pervasive use of mobile phones and the rising adoption of sensing devices, enabling people to collect data independently at any time or place is leading to a torrent of sensor data. The scale and richness of the sensor data currently being collected and analysed is rapidly growing. The key challenges that we will be facing are how to effectively manage and make use of this abundance of easily-generated and diverse health data.
This thesis investigates the challenges posed by the explosive growth of available healthcare data and proposes a number of potential solutions to the problem. As a result, a big data service platform, named Wiki-Health, is presented to provide a unified solution for collecting, storing, tagging, retrieving, searching and analysing personal health sensor data. Additionally, it allows users to reuse and remix data, along with analysis results and analysis models, to make health-related knowledge discovery more available to individual users on a massive scale.
To tackle the challenge of efficiently managing the high volume and diversity of big data, Wiki-Health introduces a hybrid data storage approach capable of storing structured, semi-structured and unstructured sensor data and sensor metadata separately. A multi-tier cloud storage system—CACSS has been developed and serves as a component for the Wiki-Health platform, allowing it to manage the storage of unstructured data and semi-structured data, such as medical imaging files. CACSS has enabled comprehensive features such as global data de-duplication, performance-awareness and data caching services. The design of such a hybrid approach allows Wiki-Health to potentially handle heterogeneous formats of sensor data.
To evaluate the proposed approach, we have developed an ECG-based health monitoring service and a virtual sensing service on top of the Wiki-Health platform. The two services demonstrate the feasibility and potential of using the Wiki-Health framework to enable better utilisation and comprehension of the vast amounts of sensor data available from different sources, and both show significant potential for real-world applications.Open Acces
