Patent 11270565 was granted and assigned to Samsung on March, 2022 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
An electronic device and a control method therefor are disclosed. A control method for an electronic device, according to the present disclosure, enables relearning of an artificial intelligence model for: receiving fall information acquired by a plurality of sensors of an external device when a fall event of a user is sensed by one of the plurality of sensors included in the external device; determining whether the user has fallen by using the fall information acquired by the plurality of sensors; determining a sensor, having erroneously determined that a fall has occurred, from among the plurality of sensors on the basis of whether the user has fallen; and determining that a fall has occurred by using a sensing value acquired by the sensor having erroneously determined that a fall has occurred. In particular, at least one part of a method for acquiring fall information by using a sensing value acquired through a sensor enables the user of artificial intelligence model having learned according at least one of machine learning, a neural network, and a deep-learning algorithm.
