SARF: Smart activity recognition framework in Ambient Assisted Living

Human activity recognition in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) is an important application in health care systems and allows us to track regular activities or even predict these activities in order to monitor healthcare and find changes in patterns and lifestyles. A review of the literature reveals various approaches to discovering and recognizing human activities. The presence of a vast number of activity recognition issues and approaches has made it difficult to make adequate comparisons and accurate assessment. Introducing the five basic components of activity recognition in the smart homes as a famous environment to remote monitoring of patients and independent living for elderly, the present paper proposes SARF framework to classify each of activity recognition approaches and then it is evaluated based on the proposed classification by some proposed measures. Using SARF proposed framework can play an effective role in selecting the appropriate method for human activity recognition in smart homes and beneficial in analysis and evaluation of different methods for various challenges in this field.
