Abstract: In many aging countries, where the population distribution has shifted to old ages, the need for automatic monitoring devices to help an elderly person when they fall is very crucial. Smartphone is one of the best candidate devices for detecting fall because accelerometer and gyroscope sensors embedded in it respond based on human movements. People usually carry their smartphone in any position and can make fall detection method difficult to detect when fall occurs. This research explored the model for unconstraint human fall detection by using the sensors embedded in smartphone for carried/wearable- sensor-based method. We proposed robust model called Ans-Assist using modified cell of Long Short-Term Memory based model as fall recognition model which can detect human fall from any smartphone position (unconstraint). Some experimental results showed that Ans-Assist achieved 0.95 (± 0.028) average accuracy value using unconstraint smartphone positions. This model can adapt the input from accelerometer and gyroscope sensors which are responsive when human fall.
