Automatic detection activities in indoor spaces has been and is a matter of great interest. Thus, in the field of health surveillance, one of the spaces frequently studied is the bathroom of homes and specifically the behaviour of users in the said space, since certain pathologies can sometimes be deduced from it. That is why, the objective of this study is to know if it is possible to automatically classify the main activities that occur within the bathroom, using an innovative methodology with respect to the methods used to date, based on environmental parameters and the application of machine learning algorithms, thus allowing privacy to be preserved, which is a notable improvement in relation to other methods. For this, the methodology followed is based on the novel application of a pre-trained convolutional network for classifying graphs resulting from the monitoring of the environmental parameters of a bathroom. The results obtained allow us to conclude that, in addition to being able to check whether environmental data are adequate for health, it is possible to detect a high rate of true positives (around 80%) in some of the most frequent and important activities, thus facilitating its automation in a very simple and economical way.
室内空间中的自动检测活动一直以来都是备受关注的问题。因此,在健康监测领域,家庭浴室是经常被研究的空间之一,特别是用户在该空间内的行为,因为有时可以从中推断出某些病症。这就是为什么本研究的目的是要了解,是否有可能使用一种相对于迄今所使用方法而言具有创新性的方法,基于环境参数和机器学习算法的应用,自动对浴室中发生的主要活动进行分类,从而保护隐私,这相对于其他方法而言是一个显著的改进。为此,所采用的方法基于对预训练卷积网络的新颖应用,该网络用于对由浴室环境参数监测得到的图形进行分类。所获得的结果使我们能够得出结论,除了能够检查环境数据是否适合健康状况外,还能够在一些最频繁和重要的活动中检测到较高的真阳性率(约80%),从而以非常简单和经济的方式促进其自动化。
