While composites absorptive most relatively small reflection, it turns metallic at a high enough fraction 35.7%: there exists zero crossing part function...
Purpose. The purpose of this study is to develop an automatic human movement classification system for the elderly using single waist-mounted tri-axial accelerometer.Methods. Real-time algorithm was developed a hierarchical binary tree, which can classify activities daily living into four general states: (1) resting state such as sitting, lying, and standing; (2) locomotion walking running; (3) emergency fall (4) transition sit stand, stand sit, lie, lie sit. To evaluate proposed algorithm,...
