Simulating the Mechanics of Human Falls
2004, Ottawa, Canada August 1 - 4, 2004, 2004Several estimates indicate that over 10,000 people 65 and older die annually from fallrelated injuries, making falls the leading cause of injury-related death for this age group. At present, no standard test or devices exists that can be used to simulate human falls, which makes research to undertand the mechanics of falls very difficult. To address

The Rise and Fall of Human Oesophagostomiasis
2010Until recently, the infections of humans with representatives of the genus Oesophagostomum were thought to be rare and of zoonotic origin. In the 19805, it was recognised that intense transmission associated with the disease was taking place in northern Togo and Ghana.

Falling Men: Images of the Falling Human in Art and Photography
2013Falling is a metaphor and an image for a lot of possible human disasters like the fall of the angels, Adam’s fall in sin etc. but also falling prices on the stock market. But there is a harsh contrast between the beauty of the image of a (pictorially) suspended fall and the implicit crash which is rarely been shown.

Human fall detection by using the body vector
2017 9th International Conference on Knowledge and Smart Technology (KST), 2017Due to a problem of current research occurring when detecting a human falling in a camera direction, we propose a new method for detecting human fall detection by using body vector technique. This method consists of three steps. Two image sequence is used as the input of the system. Firstly markers are affixed on sixteen joints.

Intelligent Human Fall Detection for Home Surveillance
2014 IEEE 11th Intl Conf on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing and 2014 IEEE 11th Intl Conf on Autonomic and Trusted Computing and 2014 IEEE 14th Intl Conf on Scalable Computing and Communications and Its Associated Workshops, 2014We propose in this paper an intelligent system for human fall detection in indoor environments. It can serve as home surveillance for elderly person. Specifically, we detect the human body captured by camera using the Vibe algorithm. Then Gabor feature of a human body is extracted as observation feature.

A Novel Approach for Human Fall Detection and Fall Risk Assessment
2020There are several studies concerned in providing quality health care services to all people. Among them, human fall detection systems play an important role, because fall is the main obstacle for elderly people to live independently and it is also a major health concern due to aging population.
