Using lifelogging to support recollection for people with episodic memory impairment and their caregivers
Matthew L. Lee, Anind K. Dey · 2008
We designed a lifelogging system to assist people with episodic memory impairment (EMI) to reminisce about recent experiences and reduce the burden on their caregivers. Our system uses a mobile passive capture approach so that the person with EMI does not have to remember to initiate capture. Our system leverages both automated content and context analysis and the expertise of the caregiver to extract the most salient cues from the lifelog. Finally, our system structures the cue review interaction so that it allows the person with EMI to think more deeply about each cue and remember the details of their experiences without repeatedly burdening the caregiver.
