| Abstract(in English) | This paper proposes a system architecture of stress relief program for improving nursing home resident's (including dementia patients) quality of life through use of the horticultural activity. The system consists of three sub-systems (Reference identifier, Program optimizer and Outcome evaluator). The first sub-system handles the determination of standard stress level expressed by physiological parameters based on individual attribution such as gender, age and preferences. Those who have psychological barrier have atendency of avoiding participation in group activities. The quality of life of residents will be improved if their barrier is eliminated or reduced. The horticultural therapy is effective to reduce stresses of residents when the therapy program is properly designed. Such stress relief leads residents to feel easy on psychological barrier. The systems approach was applied to identify the management program for nursing home residents' quality of life. Neural networks were successfully utilized to model the relationships between various parameters involved in those subsystems. |
