Abstract

In aerospace, stress and excessive workload could lead to astronauts in the physical, mental or psychological tension or disorder. In order to keep the safety of the astronauts, sensor network has been deployed in space craft for monitoring the physiological data. Such data can also be used for scientific research. In this paper, we discuss the background and challenges of mining the health condition data of astronauts, and propose a data processing platform to monitor the changing of astronauts’ health conditions. We also briefly introduce the data processing methods we designed. In this paper, all the data processing units are implemented as portable services, and an interaction communication bus is introduced, which can support heterogeneous platforms simultaneously. We conduct the experiment on gathered data to verify the correctness of our processing solutions. The experimental results on real dataset indicated that our solutions are meaningful, and our methods are efficient in practice.
