Abstract Human activity recognition is commonly used in several Internet of Things applications to recognize different contexts and respond to them. Deep learning has gained momentum for identifying activities through sensors, smartphones or even surveillance cameras. However, it is often difficult to train deep learning models on constrained IoT devices. The focus of this paper is to propose an alternative model by constructing a Deep Learning-based Human Activity Recognition framework for edge computing, which we call DL-HAR. The goal of this framework is to exploit the capabilities of cloud computing to train a deep learning model and deploy it on lesspowerful… More >

Abstract We use the public Human Activity Recognition Using Smartphones (HARUS) data-set to investigate and identify the most informative features for determining the physical activity performed by a user based on smartphone accelerometer and gyroscope data. The HARUS data-set includes 561 time domain and frequency domain features extracted from sensor readings collected from a smartphone carried by 30 users while performing specific activities. We compare the performance of a decision tree, support vector machines, Naive Bayes, multilayer perceptron, and bagging. We report the various classification performances of these algorithms for subject independent cases. Our results show that bagging and the multilayer… More >

Abstract Recognition of human activity is a key element for building intelligent and pervasive environments. Inhabitants interact with several objects and devices while performing any activity. Interactive objects and devices convey information that can be essential factors for activity recognition. Using embedded sensors with devices or objects, it is possible to get object-use sequencing data. This approach does not create discomfort to the user than wearable sensors and has no impact or issue in terms of user privacy than image sensors. In this paper, we propose a linear model for activity recognition based on the state-space method. The activities and sensor… More >
