Various life experiences management function for episodic memory recall support system

Abstract

It becomes easy to record our lives using sensors, cameras, and SNS via a smartphone, robots and cloud services. Therefore, we investigate how to use such records for prevention of memory lapse, self-awareness of dementia patients, and life view of the elderly. We propose a life experiences management function for human memory recall based on Active Information Resource (AIR). AIR is generated from user's life-log such as photos and schedule. It performs cooperation to provide information for episodic memory recall. This paper describes our proposed function and demonstrates a prototype system.
