Abstract
Falls are a serious and growing problem in the elderly and other population with chronic pathologies. However, none falling detector has been widely accepted by socio-healthcare providers yet. This work analyzes this issue and moves forward a new paradigm that hybridizes system biology with e-health domains. We present succinctly the technology and architecture of an avatar-based movement monitor based on this paradigm, together with an advancement of the first outcomes. ROC curves show the successful performance of a new algorithm compliant with it. Conclusions point to the effectivity of this technology.
