The embodiments herein provide a method and system that analyzes the pixel vectors by transforming the pixel vector into two-dimensional spectral shape space and then perform convolution over the image of graph thus formed. Method and system disclosed converts the pixel vector into image and provides a DCNN architecture that is built for processing 2D visual representation of the pixel vectors to learn spectral and classify the pixels. Thus, DCNN learn edges, arcs, arcs segments and the other shape features of the spectrum. Thus, the method disclosed enables converting a spectral signature to a shape, and then this shape is decomposed using hierarchical features learned at different convolution layers of the disclosed DCNN at different levels.

There is provided a human falling detection system including an image sensor, a thermal sensor and a microphone. The image sensor captures an image frame that is used to identify a face and a height-width ratio of a human image. The thermal sensor is used as a filter for filtering out a living body and captures a thermal image that is used to identify a height-width ratio of a human thermal image. The microphone records a time stamp of an abrupt sound appearing.
