Sensor Failure Detection in Ambient Assisted Living Using Association Rule Mining.

Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) is becoming crucial to help governments face the consequences of the emerging ageing population. It aims to motivate independent living of older adults at their place of residence by monitoring their activities in an unobtrusive way. However, challenges are still faced to develop a practical AAL system.

A Systematic Survey on Sensor Failure Detection and Fault-Tolerance in Ambient Assisted Living.

Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) systems aim to enable the elderly people to stay active and live independently into older age by monitoring their behaviour, provide the needed assistance and detect early signs of health status deterioration. Non-intrusive sensors are preferred by the elderly to be used for the monitoring purposes. However, false positive or negative triggers of those sensors could lead to a misleading interpretation of the status of the elderlies.
