Deep Learning to Predict Falls in Older Adults Based on Daily-Life Trunk Accelerometry

Deep Learning to Predict Falls in Older Adults Based on Daily-Life Trunk Accelerometry

Early detection of high fall risk is an essential component of fall prevention in older adults. Wearable sensors can provide valuable insight into daily-life activities; biomechanical features extracted from such inertial data have been shown to be of added value for the assessment of fall risk.
