Abstract
The CHRONIOUS system addresses a smart wearable platform, based on multi-parametric sensor data processing, for monitoring people suffering from chronic diseases in long-stay setting. An intelligent system, placed at a Smart Assistant Device, analyzes incoming data, facilitating data mining techniques and decides upon the severity of a probably pathological episode. Part of the intelligent system is the Mental Support Tool, which calculates a stress index and classifies the mental condition and stress levels of the patient. An additional component aiming at the personalization of the monitoring system is the Profiler which defines several patients’ profiles and facilitates clustering techniques in order to associate each resulting cluster with one of the predefined profiles.
