Dem@Care Project – CHU Dataset

Dem@Care is providing a public dataset, which is collected during lab experiments. The data collection took place in Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice (CHU)  in Nice, France. The datasets include video and audio recordings as well as data from physiological sensors. However, due to privacy regulations, only tracking information is available to the research community.

General Info:

– The people recruited for this dataset were 27 elderly people, aged 65 and above, of both genders.

– The participant pool included people that were healthy and people suffering from conditions ranging from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to mild dementia, and in a few cases full-blown Alzheimer’s Disease (AD).

– The participants are asked to perform following activities of daily living (ADL):

Activities of Interest:

– Reading Article

– Watering Plant

– Preparing Drug Box

– Preparing Drink

– Watching TV

– Talking On Phone

– Checking Bus Map
