A Two-Stage Fall Recognition Algorithm Based on Human Posture Features

Falls are seriously threatening the health of elderly. In order to reduce the potential danger caused by falls, this paper proposes a two-stage fall recognition algorithm based on human posture features. For preprocessing, we construct the new key features: deflection angles and spine ratio to descr...
