System and method of keeping track of normal behavior of the inhabitants of a house
First Claim
1. A method for automatically detecting the abnormal behavior of a person, the method comprising the steps of:
- tracking a series of actions performed by said person to determine the behavior of said person in a predetermined area under surveillance;
comparing said determine behavior with at least one of a plurality of predetermined normal behaviors to establish a behavior match;
if a match is established, determining whether at least one action from said matched predetermined normal behavior is omitted by said person; and
, transmitting an alarm signal when at least one action from said matched predetermined normal behavior is omitted.

Abstract
A home control system for automatic detection and warning of abnormal behavior includes a unit for observing behavior in a predetermined area under surveillance, a unit for processing an output of observed behavior from the unit for observing, and a pattern recognition module for recognizing whether the observed behavior is associated with predefined normal behaviors. The detection of predetermined normal behavior in progress leads to a provision of an anticipatory action. Upon recognition that the observed behavior is abnormal, an alarm signal is triggered to remind the user.

11. A method for automatic detection of an abnormal behavior, the method comprising the steps of:
-
observing a series of actions performed by a person to determine the behavior of said person in a predetermined area under surveillance;
identifying whether said determine behavior is associated with at least one of a plurality of predetermined normal behaviors by comparing said determine behavior with a plurality of predetermined behavioral patterns stored in a normal behavior module; and
,transmitting an alarm signal to said person when at least one of said predetermined behavior patterns in said normal behavior module is not performed. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system for automatic detection of an abnormal behavior, comprising:
-
means for observing a series of actions performed by a person to determine the behavior of said person in a predetermined area under surveillance;
means for analyzing output data from said observing means to determine whether said observed behavior is associated with at least one of a plurality of predetermined normal behaviors comprised of a plurality of actions;
means for storing said predetermined normal behaviors; and
,means for transmitting an alarm signal to said person when at least one of said plurality of predetermined normal behaviors is omitted. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
