Abstract

In response to the demographic change and the accompanying challenges for effective healthcare, approaches to enable using advancements of digitalization and IoT infrastructures as well as AI methods to deliver results in the field of personalized health assistance are necessary. In our research, we aim at enabling user-centered assistance with the help of networked sensors and Health Assistance Systems as well as learning methods based on connected graph data that model the shared system, user, and environmental context. In particular, this paper demonstrates a graph-based dynamic context model for a medication assistance system and presents an association rule learning method using Apriori algorithm to learn correlations between user vitals, activities as well as medication intake behavior. An application scenario for context-based heart rate monitoring is consequently presented as proof of concept, where associated contextual elements from the modeled context relating surges in monitored heart rate to environmental and user activity are shown.
