Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The detection of abnormalities in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) has garnered significant attention in recent studies, with many employing deep learning techniques. This paper introduces a novel approach to analyzing ADL sequences, aimed at identifying meaningful deviations from an individual’s routine behavior. Our method offers several benefits for older adults, including timely care, early detection of health conditions to prevent deterioration, reduced monitoring burden on family members, and enhanced self-sufficiency without disrupting daily activities. We propose an Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL)-based method to detect behavioral abnormalities in older adults by analyzing ADL sequences. Our approach models the problem of abnormality detection in behavior sequences as a Markov Chain model. By applying the IRL method, we infer the reward function that motivates individuals to perform ADL from observed behavior trajectories. This inferred reward function is then used to identify potential behavior abnormalities through a threshold-based mechanism, where sequences with rewards below a specified threshold are flagged as potential abnormalities.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
