Abstract
We present ``Together about Dementia'', a mobile health app
that aims to help persons with dementia when they get lost through
the help of caregivers, relatives, and volunteering
citizens. When the app detects that a person with dementia is
disoriented, wandering, and getting lost, it triggers an alarm that
activates a relative and possibly a volunteer in the proximity. A
backend system based on a microservice and serverless architecture
performs the detection of wandering and the subsequent coordination
of users that are put on a mission to the rescue of the person with
dementia. The backend system implements an AI technique for
spatio-temporal anomaly detection based on location data recorded by
the frontend system installed on the portable device of the person
with dementia.
