A challenge in developing an ambient activity recognition system for use in elder care is finding a balance between the sophistication of the system and a cost structure that fits within the budgets of public and private sector healthcare organisations. Much activity recognition research in the context of elder care is based on dense networks of sensors and advanced methods, such as supervised machine learning algorithms. This paper presents the data processing aspects of an activity recognition system based on a simpler, knowledge-based unsupervised approach, designed for a sparse network of sensors. By structuring sensor data management as a streaming system, we provide a simple programming model for the application logic, which facilitates building a fault-tolerant system with the potential for distributed data management within the sensor network. The system, evaluated by a public sector healthcare organisation, constitutes an example of a system that is useful and has a sustainable cost structure.

Sensor placement in water distribution networks using centrality-guided multi-objective optimisation
Diao, Kegong; Emmerich, Michael; Lan, Jacob; Yevseyeva, Iryna; Sitzenfrei, Robert (IWA Publishing, 2024)This paper introduces a multi-objective optimisation approach for the challenging problem of efficient sensor placement in water distribution networks for contamination detection. An important question is, how to identify ... -
Adaptive range-based localization algorithm based on trilateration and reference node selection for outdoor wireless sensor networks
Luomala, Jari; Hakala, Ismo (Elsevier BV, 2022)Locating the nodes of outdoor wireless sensor networks (WSNs) using (tri)lateration with a low-cost ranging technique, such as the received signal strength indicator (RSSI), often results in inaccurate location estimates. ... -
Anomaly detection in wireless sensor networks
Lateef, Asim (2016)Wireless Sensor Network can be defined as a network of integrated sensors responsible for environmental sensing, data processing and communication with other sensors and the base station while consuming low power. Today, ... -
Analysis and Evaluation of Adaptive RSSI-based Ranging in Outdoor Wireless Sensor Networks
Luomala, Jari; Hakala, Ismo (Elsevier, 2019)Estimating inter-node distances based on received radio signal strength (RSSI) is the foundation of RSSI-based outdoor localization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, the accuracy of RSSI-based ranging depends ... -
Quantification of cortical proprioceptive processing through a wireless and miniaturized EEG amplifier
Giangrande, A.; Cerone, G. L.; Gazzoni, M.; Botter, A.; Piitulainen, H. (IEEE, 2022)Corticokinematic coherence (CKC) is computed between limb kinematics and cortical activity (e.g. MEG, EEG), and it can be used to detect, quantify and localize the cortical processing of proprioceptive afference arising ...
