| Abstract | The increasing aging population in the coming decades will result in many complications for society and in particular for the healthcare system due to the shortage of healthcare professionals and healthcare facilities. To remedy this problem, researchers have pursued developing remote monitoring systems and assisted living technologies by utilizing recent advances in sensor and networking technology, as well as in the data mining and machine learning fields. In this article, we report on our fully automated approach for discovering and monitoring patterns of daily activities. Discovering and tracking patterns of daily activities can provide unprecedented opportunities for health monitoring and assisted living applications, especially for older adults and individuals with mental disabilities. Previous approaches usually rely on preselected activities or labeled data to track and monitor daily activities. In this article, we present a fully automated approach by discovering natural activity patterns and their variations in real-life data. We will show how our activity discovery component can be integrated with an activity recognition component to track and monitor various daily activity patterns. We also provide an activity visualization component to allow caregivers to visually observe and examine the activity patterns using a user-friendly interface. We validate our algorithms using real-life data obtained from two apartments during a three-month period. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
