Among these, the risk of falls among older adults is particularly significant, affecting individual health and the quality of life, and placing an additional burden on healthcare systems. Existing fall detection systems often have limitations, including delays due to continuous server communication, high false-positive rates, low adoption rates due to wearability and comfort issues, and high costs. In response to these challenges, this work presents a reliable, wearable, and cost-effective fall detection system. The proposed system consists of a fit-for-purpose device, with an embedded algorithm and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), enabling real-time fall detection. The algorithm combines a Threshold-Based Algorithm (TBA) and a neural network with low number of parameters based on a Transformer architecture. This system demonstrates notable performance with 95.29% accuracy, 93.68% specificity, and 96.66% sensitivity, while only using a 0.38% of the trainable parameters used by the other approach.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0129065724500266","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,24]],"date-time":"2024-02-24T22:05:58Z","timestamp":1708812358000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Edge Computing Transformers for Fall Detection in Older Adults"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"34","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4177-4526","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jes\u00fas","family":"Fernandez-Bermejo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Social Science and Information Technology, University of Castilla-La Mancha, 45600 Talavera de la Reina, Toledo, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9574-4138","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jes\u00fas","family":"Martinez-del-Rincon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT), Institute of Electronics, Communications & Information Technology, Queen\u2019s University of Belfast, Belfast BT3 9DT, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4700-5557","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Javier","family":"Dorado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Engineering, University of Castilla-La Mancha, 13071 Ciudad Real, Ciudad Real, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9996-8008","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xavier del","family":"Toro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Engineering, University of Castilla-La Mancha, 13071 Ciudad Real, Ciudad Real, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6132-1199","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda J.","family":"Santofimia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Engineering, University of Castilla-La Mancha, 13071 Ciudad Real, Ciudad Real, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7372-1568","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan C.","family":"Lopez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Engineering, University of Castilla-La Mancha, 13071 Ciudad Real, Ciudad Real, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40621-023-00463-4"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB002","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/frobt.2020.00071"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clnesp.2022.09.675"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB004","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gerinurse.2023.03.010"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB005","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(12)61263-X"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.micpro.2019.102895"},{"key":"S0129065724500266BIB007","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijge.2016.06.003"},{"issue":"3","key":"S0129065724500266BIB008","first-page":"15","volume":"7","author":"Mahmud F.","year":"2015","journal-title":"Int.
