User care at home is a matter of great concern since unforeseen
circumstances might occur that affect people's well-being.
Technologies that assist people in independent living are essential
for enhancing care in a cost-effective and reliable manner.
Assisted care applications often demand real-time observation of
the environment and the resident's activities using an event-driven
system. As an emerging area of research and development, it is
necessary to explore the approaches of the user care system in the
literature to identify current practices for future research
directions. Therefore, this book is aimed at a comprehensive review
of data sources (e.g., sensors) with machine learning for various
smart user care systems. To encourage the readers in the field,
insights of practical essence of different machine learning
algorithms with sensor data (e.g., publicly available datasets) are
also discussed. Some code segments are also included to motivate
the researchers of the related fields to practically implement the
features and machine learning techniques. It is an effort to obtain
knowledge of different types of sensor-based user monitoring
technologies in-home environments. With the aim of adopting these
technologies, research works, and their outcomes are reported.
Besides, up to date references are included for the user monitoring
technologies with the aim of facilitating independent living.
Research that is related to the use of user monitoring technologies
in assisted living is very widespread, but it is still consists
mostly of limited-scale studies. Hence, user monitoring technology
is a very promising field, especially for long-term care. However,
monitoring of the users for smart assisted technologies should be
taken to the next level with more detailed studies that evaluate
and demonstrate their potential to contribute to prolonging the
independent living of people. The target of this book is to
contribute towards that direction.
