A dataset of performed trials of activities of daily living (ADLs) and falls with subjects wearing two triaxis accelerometers and a gyroscope.
I used features common throughout related literature, specifically from [3]:
Sum Vector Magnitude = 
Sum Vector Magnitude on Horizontal Plane = 
Angle between z-axis and vertical = 
Standard deviation magnitude on horizontal plane = 
Standard deviation magnitude = 
Signal Magnitude Area = 
Signal Magnitude Area on horizontal plane =

I have noticed that the average of the maximum obtained value of horizontal vector magnitude standard deviation is inversely proportional to the amplitude of the same averaged measure in the first four falls, on a per activity per subject basis. The correlation between the two aforementioned variables is -0.89. The first four ADLs are walking and jogging so I am trying to use them as a baseline measure for personalized variance for threshold fall detection methods.
