Abstract: With the emergence of new concepts like smart hospitals, video surveillance cameras should be introduced in each room of the hospital for the purpose of safety and security. These surveillance cameras can also be used to provide assistance to patients and hospital staff. In particular, a real-time fall of a patient can be detected with the help of these cameras and accordingly, assistance can be provided to them. Different models have already been developed by researchers to detect a human fall using a camera. This paper proposes a vision based deep learning model to detect a human fall. Along with this model, two mathematical based models have also been proposed which uses pre-trained YOLO FCNN and Faster R-CNN architecture to detect the human fall. At the end of this paper, a comparison study has been done on these models to specify which method provides the most accurate results.
