A Human State Estimation Method Using Fuzzy Based System

When we use a MEMS based monitoring system for monitoring human behavior, several kinds of numerical data can be measured. In order to develop an intelligent monitoring system with small size, we need to minimize the power consumption. Therefore, we need to develop a simple intelligent system. We have proposed a behavior estimation method which consists of a fuzzy rule based system to estimate the subject\´s behavior. In the proposed method, two steps of abstraction for numerical data extract some human behaviors from numerical data. The proposed method can estimate only human behavior such as "walking" or "sitting" etc. In this paper, we propose an estimation method that can estimate both human state and behavior. Our proposed method can estimate human state using both heart rate from ECG and human behavior obtained from acceleration sensors. From the results of our proposed method, we show the effectiveness of our proposed method.
