            Abstract : 
This paper presents a reconfigurable HMM for activity recognition in a home setting where sensors are deployed in the environment. Sensors activated in a sequence are captured and modeled using the HMM like construct. The model traces out the most likely sensor activation sequence responsible for the activity being performed. We recognize several Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) for Ubiquitous Healthcare.
