A machine learning approach to fall detection algorithm using wearable sensor

Falls are the primary cause of accidents for the elderly in living environment. Falls frequently cause fatal and non-fatal injuries that are associated with a large amount of medical costs. Reduction hazards in living environment and doing exercise for training balance and muscle are the common stra...
