Abstract

An electronic device and a method for controlling the same are provided. The electronic device comprises a display, a memory for storing instructions, and at least one processor. When the instructions are executed collectively or individually by at least one processor, the electronic device obtains response information regarding a notification message received from at least one device related to a user and usage information regarding at least one device. The response information regarding the notification message and the usage information regarding at least one device are input into a learned neural network model to obtain information regarding the user's daily life responsiveness. Based on the user's daily life responsiveness, the electronic device identifies whether there is an abnormal situation of the user. Based on the identification result, the electronic device provides a notification message containing information regarding the abnormal situation to at least one of the user and other users related to the user.

Description

ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a method for controlling the same, and more specifically, to an electronic device and a method for controlling the same for detecting an abnormal situation using usage information of the electronic device and response information to a user's notification message. Modern society is changing rapidly, with changes in population structure being particularly prominent. In particular, the aging of the population has been progressing rapidly in recent years, and single-person households are also increasing rapidly. As concerns regarding individual health and safety grow due to the aging population and the rise in single-person households, the importance of technology that automatically recognizes and analyzes users' lifestyle patterns and reactions is being emphasized. Previously, it was common practice to simply send notification messages via electronic devices and have the user check them to monitor daily life, or to recognize user behavior and detect abnormal behavior through various sensors to verify whether daily life was in a normal state. The information described above may be provided as related art for the purpose of aiding understanding of the present disclosure. No claim or determination is made as to whether any of the foregoing may be applied as prior art related to the present disclosure.
