Abstract

Movement of humans when walking and going up and down the stairs has been estimated using the Fuzzy reasoning method. In order to estimate that movement, the frequency distribution is determined for each variable using the obtained data from accelerometer. After this determination, strategic values are decided. The membership function for each value is defined based on experience and each adjusted membership function is weighted and then combined, with the resulting rules is determined by 36 patterns. The rules and membership function is examined against the movement to reach validation for daily use. Although more adjustment for membership function is required, this study enables the application of daily use of movement. The results can also be used to estimate the daily consumption of calories for our lifestyles.
