Free Living

Existing accelerometer-based human activity recognition (HAR) benchmark datasets that were recorded during free living suffer from non-fixed sensor placement, the usage of only one sensor, and unreliable annotations. We make two contributions in this work. First, we present the publicly available Human Activity Recognition Trondheim dataset (HARTH). Twenty-two participants were recorded for 90 to 120 min during their regular working hours using two three-axial accelerometers, attached to the thigh and lower back, and a chest-mounted camera. Experts annotated the data independently using the camera’s video signal and achieved high inter-rater agreement (Fleiss’ Kappa =0.96). They labeled twelve activities. The second contribution of this paper is the training of seven different baseline machine learning models for HAR on our dataset. We used a support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor, random forest, extreme gradient boost, convolutional neural network, bidirectional long short-term memory, and convolutional neural network with multi-resolution blocks. The support vector machine achieved the best results with an F1-score of 0.81 (standard deviation: ±0.18), recall of 0.85±0.13, and precision of 0.79±0.22 in a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation. Our highly professional recordings and annotations provide a promising benchmark dataset for researchers to develop innovative machine learning approaches for precise HAR in free living.

Posture Classification

Human activity recognition (HAR) has been increasingly used in medical care, behavior analysis, and entertainment industry to improve the experience of users. Most of the existing works use fixed models to identify various activities. However, they do not adapt well to the dynamic nature of human activities. We investigated the activity recognition with postural transition awareness. The inertial sensor data was processed by filters and we used both time domain and frequency domain of the signals to extract the feature set. For the corresponding posture classification, three feature selection algorithms were considered to select 585 features to obtain the optimal feature subset for the posture classification. And We adopted three classifiers (support vector machine, decision tree, and random forest) for comparative analysis. After experiments, the support vector machine gave better classification results than other two methods. By using the support vector machine, we could achieve up to 98% accuracy in the Multi-class classification. Finally, the results were verified by probability estimation.
