Activities of Daily Living Monitoring and Reporting System
First Claim
1. A user-wearable electronic device, for monitoring user activities of daily living (ADL), comprising:
- a housing configured to be worn on a user'"'"'s torso;
a plurality of sensors disposed in the housing, including a first sensor to produce raw ADL data, and a biometric sensor configured to sense one or more biometric characteristics of the user and generate corresponding biometric data;
one or more processors, disposed in the housing and coupled to the one or more sensors, configured to;
for each time period in a sequence of successive time periods,generate ADL identification information for the time period by processing the raw ADL data produced by the first sensor using one or more neural networks pre-trained to recognize a predefined set of ADLs, the pre-trained one or more neural networks each including a plurality of neural network layers, at least one layer of the plurality of neural network layers comprising a recurrent neural network, wherein an output of the one or more neural networks for each time period corresponds to the generated ADL identification information for the time period; and
a transmitter, disposed in the housing and coupled to at least one of the one or more processors, to transmit, at predefined times, reports for the user, wherein a respective report for the user includes ADL information corresponding to the generated ADL identification information for one or more time periods in the sequence of time periods.

Abstract
A user-wearable electronic device includes a housing configured to be worn on a user'"'"'s torso, a plurality of sensors disposed in the housing, including a first sensor to sense motion of the user and produce raw activities of daily living (ADL) data, and a biometric sensor to sense one or more biometric characteristics of the user. One or more processors in the electronic device or an intermediary device generate, for a sequence of time periods, ADL identification information by processing the raw ADL data using one or more neural networks pre-trained to recognize a predefined set of ADLs. Each pre-trained neural network includes a plurality of neural network layers, including at least one layer that includes a recurrent neural network. Reports that include ADL information corresponding to the generated ADL identification information for time periods in the sequence of time periods are transmitted to a monitoring system.
