Abstract

The Independent LifeStyle Assistant (I.L.S.A.) is an agent-based monitoring and support system to help elderly people live longer in their homes by reducing caregiver burden. I.L.S.A. is a multiagent system that incorporates a unified sensing model, situation assessments, response planning, real-time responses, and machine learning. This paper describes the six-month study of the system we fielded in elders' homes and the major lessons we learned during development.
