Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2020, The Author(s). Healthcare 4.0 paradigm aims at realization of data-driven and patient-centric health systems wherein advanced sensors can be deployed to provide personalized assistance. Hence, extreme mentally affected patients from diseases like Alzheimer can be assisted using sophisticated algorithms and enabling technologies. Motivated from this fact, in this paper,DeTrAs: Deep Learning-based Internet of Health Framework for the Assistance of Alzheimer Patients is proposed. DeTrAs works in three phases: (1) A recurrent neural network-based Alzheimer prediction scheme is proposed which uses sensory movement data, (2) an ensemble approach for abnormality tracking for Alzheimer patients is designed which comprises two parts:(a) convolutional neural network-based emotion detection scheme and (b) timestamp window-based natural language processing scheme, and (3) an IoT-based assistance mechanism for the Alzheimer patients is also presented. The evaluation of DeTrAs depicts almost 10–20% improvement in terms of accuracy in contrast to the different existing machine learning algorithms.
