Development of an anomaly alert system triggered by unusual behaviors at home

Abstract

In many countries, the number of elderly people has grown due to the increase in the life expectancy of the population, many of whom currently live alone and are prone to having accidents that they cannot report, especially if they are immobilized. For this reason, we have developed a non-intrusive IoT device, which, through multiple integrated sensors, collects information on habitual user behavior patterns and uses it to generate unusual behavior rules. These rules are used by our SecurHome system to send alert messages to the dependent person's family members or caregivers if their behavior changes abruptly over the course of their daily life. This document describes in detail the design and development of the SecurHome system.SecurHome is a multidisciplinary research project on ageing in the framework of the International Centre on Ageing (CENIE). It is a project evaluated by the Spanish State Agency for Research and co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund in the framework of the Interreg V-A Spain–Portugal Cooperation Programme (POCTEP) 2014–2020
