Cognitive Inference Device for Activity Supervision in the Elderly

الملخص EN

Human activity, life span, and quality of life are enhanced by innovations in science and technology.

Aging individual needs to take advantage of these developments to lead a self-regulated life.

However, maintaining a self-regulated life at old age involves a high degree of risk, and the elderly often fail at this goal.

Thus, the objective of our study is to investigate the feasibility of implementing a cognitive inference device (CI-device) for effective activity supervision in the elderly.

To frame the CI-device, we propose a device design framework along with an inference algorithm and implement the designs through an artificial neural model with different configurations, mapping the CI-device’s functions to minimise the device’s prediction error.

An analysis and discussion are then provided to validate the feasibility of CI-device implementation for activity supervision in the elderly.
