Abstract
With the global aging population on the rise, the health and safety of elderly individuals living alone have become increasingly critical. This study introduces a novel AIoT-based habit mining algorithm designed to enhance activity monitoring in smart home environments. The proposed method integrates a one-dimensional U-Net neural network for accurate behavioral classification and an FP-Growth-based temporal association rule analysis for uncovering meaningful living patterns. By leveraging environmental sensor data, the algorithm first classifies daily activities and then uses timestamps to detect time-sensitive dependencies in behavior sequences, identifying the long-term habits of the elderly. Experimental validation on CASAS datasets (ARUBA and MILAN) demonstrates superior performance, achieving a precision of 84.77%. Compared to traditional techniques, this approach excels in behavior recognition and habit mining, offering a precise and adaptive framework for AIoT-driven smart home safety and health monitoring systems. The results highlight its potential to improve the quality of life and safety for elderly individuals living alone.
