This paper proposes a simulator-based detection system to identify six typical anomalies in elderly people living alone, such as being semi-bedridden or falling while walking. The system can be customized for different room layouts and resident characteristics by training detection classifiers using the simulator. The detection process standardizes sensor data processing and uses a simple approach. Numerical evaluations show that the methods for detecting wandering and falls are comparable to previous methods, while those for detecting being semi-bedridden, housebound, and forgetting achieve a sensitivity of over 0.9 with fewer than one false alarm every 50 days.

This paper helps detect problems in older people living alone in Japan. It uses special sensors in smart homes to find issues like someone lying down too long or having trouble walking. The system can be adjusted for different home layouts and the person’s characteristics. It also looks at how often these problems happen, so it can spot them earlier. The results show that this method is as good as others at finding some problems, and much better at finding others.
