Iot based monitoring method and system for detecting separation anxiety of pet using support vector machine and complex event processing

A computer-implemented method of monitoring a separation anxiety of a pet, the method comprising:

• acquiring pet-related data from at least one sensor;
• recognizing an activity of the pet using a support vector machine (SVM) based on the acquired pet-related data;
• and
• determining whether the pet is in a separation anxiety state by analyzing input data that is the recognized activity of the pet using a complex event processing (CEP).

A system for monitoring a separation anxiety of a pet, the system comprising:

• a plurality of sensors configured to collect pet-related data, at least one of the sensors being worn around the pet;
• an activity recognizer configured to recognize an activity of the user using a support vector machine (SVM) based on the pet-related data acquired from the plurality of sensors;
• a separation anxiety determiner configured to determine whether the pet is in a separation anxiety state by analyzing input data that is the activity of the pet recognized by the activity recognizer using a complex event processing (CEP);
• a user interface device configured to receive data indicating that the pet is in the separation anxiety state, output from the separation anxiety determiner based on a determination of the separation anxiety determiner, and to output a command for a measure for the separation anxiety state;
• a separation anxiety handler configured to receive the command output from the user interface device, to generate a measure command for taking a measure for relieving the separation anxiety of the pet, and to transmit the measure command to at least one actuator;
• and
• the at least one actuator configured to take the measure for relieving the separation anxiety of the pet in response to the measure command.
