AMICA: Activity Monitoring and Coaching Application for IoT Enabled Healthcare

This talk will highlight an ongoing project AMICA which addresses the challenge of daily activity monitoring of elderly people in multi-occupancy scenarios using Machine Learning approach. AMICA uses Open Data to train a model on Digiotouch Cloud based, secure Paradise IoT Platform and perform classification on smart devices owned by users. The training and classification are performed in a GDPR compliant privacy aware framework. The physical activities recognized are further used to provide healthy coaching (e.g. improving lifestyle, reducing stress) to the users, enabled by the AMICA mobile application.
