摘要：
The present invention relates to distinguishing different sedentary states of a subject. A sedentary state can refer to standing, sitting and/or lying. An apparatus for determining a sedentary state of a subject is presented that comprises a sensor interface for obtaining a movement signal indicative of a movement of the subject； an extraction unit for extracting a signal feature indicative of postural control oscillations of the subject from the movement signal, wherein the signal feature indicative of postural control oscillations is indicative of center of mass motion oscillations for preventing the subject from falling； and a classifier for classifying a sedentary state of the subject based on the signal feature indicative of postural control oscillations of the subject. Further, a corresponding method, computer program and system are presented.
