Novel Hierarchical Fall Detection Algorithm Using a Multiphase Fall Model

Falls are the primary cause of accidents for the elderly in the living environment. Reducing hazards in the living environment and performing exercises for training balance and muscles are the common strategies for fall prevention. However, falls cannot be avoided completely; fall detection provides...
