ABSTRACT
Smart habitats are considered by many researchers as a promising potential solution to help supporting the needs of elders. It aims to provide cognitive assistance by taking decisions, such as giving hints, suggestions and reminders to a resident in order to increase their autonomy. Smart homes can be seen as a huge data warehouse on the person's lifestyle. However, one of the major issues which emerge from this context of big data is learning. So it is essential to develop techniques to learn from patients before being able to assist them. In fact, each person makes a number of recurring activities, but not necessarily the same, not in the same way, not at the same time, etc. It is difficult for an expert to establish a knowledge library of activities as is often the case in the literature. A promising solution that is beginning to be explored seriously by many scientists concerning the application of data mining techniques to learn behaviors, habits and routines of people. About it, we present in this paper an affordable activity recognition system, based on frequent sensor clustering, able to recognize the patterns of the daily routine activities.
