Health smart home, as a typical application of Internet of things, provides a new solution for remote medical treatment. It can effectively relieve pressure from shortage of medical resources caused by aging population and help elderly people live at home more independently and safely. Activity recognition is the core of health smart home. This technology aims to recognize the activity patterns of users from a series of observations on the user’ actions and the environmental conditions, so as to avoid distress situations as much as possible. However, most of the existing researches focus on offline activity recognition, but not good at online real-time activity recognition. Besides, the feature representation techniques used for offline activity recognition are generally not suitable for online scenarios. In this article, the authors propose a real-time online activity recognition approach based on the genetic algorithm–optimized support vector machine classifier. In order to support online real-time activity recognition, a new sliding window-based feature representation technique enhanced by mutual information between sensors is devised. In addition, the genetic algorithm is used to automatically select optimal hyperparameters for the support vector machine model, thereby reducing the recognition inaccuracy caused by manual tuning of hyperparameters. Finally, a series of comprehensive experiments are conducted on freely available data sets to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

In this paper, we propose a framework for studying the AGGIR (Autonomie Gérontologique et Groupe Iso Ressources—Autonomy Gerontology Iso-Resources Groups) grid model, with the aim of assessing the level of independence of elderly people in accordance with their capabilities of performing daily activities as well as interacting with their environments. In order to model the Activities of Daily Living (ADL), we extend a previously proposed Domain Specific Language (DSL), by defining new operators to deal with constraints related to time and location of activities and event recognition. The proposed framework aims at providing an analysis tool regarding the performance of elderly/disabled people within a home environment by means of data recovered from sensors using a smart-home simulator environment. We perform an evaluation of our framework in several scenarios, considering five of the AGGIR variables (i.e., feeding, dressing, toileting, elimination, and transfers) as well as health-care devices for tracking the occurrence of elderly activities. The results demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed framework for managing the tracked records correctly and, thus, generate the appropriate event information related to the ADL.
