Abstract

Fall in elders is one of the major problems everywhere throughout the world. Due to fall elderly population meet many problems in their daily life. The use of technology in the daily activities of elderly people makes their life happy and comfortable. Recent development of Internet – Of – Things such as smart phones, wearable sensors occupies a vital role to save the life of the elderly population. The recognition and identification of human life is the result of similar motivation. The activity of human recognition makes a broad range of computing applications by identifying the activities done by the performer. Kinect Xbox 360 occupies a vital role providing physiotherapy exercises in homely environment for the elderly people by the physiotherapist. Kinect Xbox 360 is low cost device which is used to track body movements and is also used by the elders at home for doing rehabilitation exercises.  There are some challenges occurs for the elders while doing physiotherapy exercises. The study of this paper makes to perform human activity identification and recognition using logistic regression, one of the machine learning algorithms, aiming better predictive accuracy over the existing research. Artificial Neural Network, K – Nearest Neighbor, Naïve Bayes and Decision Tree algorithms are used to do classification analysis. This study provides the performance of logistic regression performs the best classification by achieving 89.2% of accuracy. The KNN and ANN gives unsatisfactory results and get predictive results lower than logistic regression result. There is no efficiency in the results provided by decision and naïve Bayes algorithms. The very simple use of problems is the use of incorrect data’s or by using wrong algorithm to do prediction can block the performance of daily human activity system. In this paper we are going to see the development of physiotherapy exercises for elders using Kinect Xbox 360 and also detect accuracy with the help of logistic regression algorithm.
