Important Considerations For Human Activity Recognition Using Sensor Data, Matt Buckner Aug 2016

Important Considerations For Human Activity Recognition Using Sensor Data, Matt Buckner

Rose-Hulman Undergraduate Research Publications

Automated human activity recognition has received much attention in recent years due to increasing focus on interconnected devices in The Internet of Things (IoT) and the miniaturization and proliferation of sensor systems with the adoption of smartphones. In this work, we focus on the current status of human activity recognition across multiple studies, including methodology, accuracy of results, and current challenges to implementation. We include some preliminary work we have completed on a sensor system for classifying treadmill usage.

Our objective is to provide real-time classification of treadmill usage patterns based on accelerometer and magnetometer measurements. We collected data from treadmills in the Rose-Hulman Student Recreation Center (SRC) using Shimmer3 sensor units. We identified useful data features and classifiers for predicting treadmill usage patterns. We also prototyped a proof of concept wireless, real-time classification system.
