TinyML Approach for Pre-fall Motion Pattern Detection in Older Adults
摘要
This work presents a TinyML-based approach for classifying daily motion patterns and detecting pre-fall activity in older adults using inertial sensor data. A multilayer perceptron neural network was trained on six input signals (3-axis accelerometer and gyroscope) from the SisFall dataset. The model was optimized for edge deployment using quantization and pruning, achieving a global accuracy of 85.5% across 15 activity classes. The final model was converted to C for integration into microcontrollers. Results show high performance with minimal latency, enabling real-time fall prevention strategies in embedded health monitoring systems.
