| dc.description.abstract | The populations life expectancy is increasing, and this scenario will bring challenges to be faced in the coming decades to provide healthy and inclusive aging. At this stage of life, several common health conditions, chronic illnesses, and disabilities affect the individuals physical and mental health and prevent him from carrying out Activities of Daily Living. In this context, this article presents a comparative study between some Machine Learning algorithms used to identify behavioral abnormalities based on ADL (Activities of Daily Living), through the Novelty Detection technique. ADL data were used to create a model that defines the baseline behavior of an elderly person, and new observations, to verify significant changes in behavior, are classified as outliers or abnormal. The Local Outlier Factor, One-class Support Vector Machine, Robust Covariance, and Isolation Forest algorithms were analyzed, and the Local Outlier Factor obtained the best result, reaching a precision and F1-Score of 96%. | eng |
