Thesis Title
Real-Time Fusion of Wireless Sensor Network Data for Wellness Determination of the Elderly in a Smart Home

Mr Suryadevara researched a methodology for developing an efficient electronic real time data processing system to recognize the daily activity behaviour of an elderly person living alone. He investigated the ability to determine the wellness of an elderly person living alone using an artificially intelligent system. He also modelled a framework integrating temporal and spatial contextual information for determining the wellness of an elderly person. In addition, he designed and developed a novel behaviour detection process based on the observed sensor data in performing essential daily activities. His model can update the behaviour knowledge base and simultaneously execute tasks that explore the intricacies of the generated behaviour pattern. An initial decline or change in regular daily activities can suggest changes to the health and functional abilities of the elderly person. The system can incorporate, understand, and act according to the requirements of a smart home environment.
