针对可穿戴设备实时跌倒检测,提出成本敏感阈值优化方法。

Watch Your Step: A Cost-Sensitive Framework for Accelerometer-Based Fall Detection in Real-World Streaming Scenarios

  • 采用成本敏感学习调整决策阈值,优先避免漏报
  • 在真实数据集上实现100%召回率、84%精确率、91%F1分数
  • 每样本推理时间低于5毫秒,适合嵌入式设备部署

实时跌倒检测对老年人健康至关重要,但现有方法多依赖模拟数据或已知跌倒事件信息,限制了实际应用。本文提出一种无需事先知晓跌倒事件的实时检测框架,基于超过60小时的FARSEEING真实世界惯性测量单元(IMU)数据,使用高效分类器在流式模式下计算跌倒概率。为提升鲁棒性,引入成本敏感学习策略,通过反映漏报风险高于误报的成本函数调节决策阈值。与多数高召回率但低精确率的方法不同,本框架在FARSEEING数据集上达到1.00的召回率、0.84的精确率和0.91的F1分数,成功检测所有跌倒事件且误报率低,平均推理时间低于5毫秒/样本。结果表明,成本敏感阈值调节能显著提升基于加速度计的跌倒检测鲁棒性,验证了该计算高效框架在实时可穿戴监测系统中的部署潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Real-time fall detection is crucial for enabling timely interventions and mitigating the severe health consequences of falls, particularly in older adults. However, existing methods often rely on simulated data or assumptions such as prior knowledge of fall events, limiting their real-world applicability. Practical deployment also requires efficient computation and robust evaluation metrics tailored to continuous monitoring. This paper presents a real-time fall detection framework for continuous monitoring without prior knowledge of fall events. Using over 60 hours of inertial measurement unit (IMU) data from the FARSEEING real-world falls dataset, we employ recent efficient classifiers to compute fall probabilities in streaming mode. To enhance robustness, we introduce a cost-sensitive learning strategy that tunes the decision threshold using a cost function reflecting the higher risk of missed falls compared to false alarms. Unlike many methods that achieve high recall only at the cost of precision, our framework achieved Recall of 1.00, Precision of 0.84, and an F1 score of 0.91 on FARSEEING, detecting all falls while keeping false alarms low, with average inference time below 5 ms per sample. These results demonstrate that cost-sensitive threshold tuning enhances the robustness of accelerometer-based fall detection. They also highlight the potential of our computationally efficient framework for deployment in real-time wearable sensor systems for continuous monitoring.
