Translation Between Waves, wave2wave

The understanding of sensor data has been greatly improved by advanced deep learning methods with big data. However, available sensor data in the real world are still limited, which is called the opportunistic sensor problem. This paper proposes a new variant of neural machine translation seq2seq to deal with continuous signal waves by introducing the window-based (inverse-) representation to adaptively represent partial shapes of waves and the iterative back-translation model for high-dimensional data. Experimental results are shown for two real-life data: earthquake and activity translation. The performance improvements of one-dimensional data was about 46% in test loss and that of high-dimensional data was about 1625% in perplexity with regard to the original seq2seq.

A dataset for complex activity recognition withmicro and macro activities in a cooking scenario

Complex activity recognition can benefit from understanding the steps that compose them. Current datasets, however, are annotated with one label only, hindering research in this direction. In this paper, we describe a new dataset for sensor-based activity recognition featuring macro and micro activities in a cooking scenario. Three sensing systems measured simultaneously, namely a motion capture system, tracking 25 points on the body; two smartphone accelerometers, one on the hip and the other one on the forearm; and two smartwatches one on each wrist. The dataset is labeled for both the recipes (macro activities) and the steps (micro activities). We summarize the results of a baseline classification using traditional activity recognition pipelines. The dataset is designed to be easily used to test and develop activity recognition approaches.

Deep Recurrent Neural Network for Mobile Human Activity Recognition with High Throughput

In this paper, we propose a method of human activity recognition with high throughput from raw accelerometer data applying a deep recurrent neural network (DRNN), and investigate various architectures and its combination to find the best parameter values. The "high throughput" refers to short time at a time of recognition. We investigated various parameters and architectures of the DRNN by using the training dataset of 432 trials with 6 activity classes from 7 people. The maximum recognition rate was 95.42% and 83.43% against the test data of 108 segmented trials each of which has single activity class and 18 multiple sequential trials, respectively. Here, the maximum recognition rates by traditional methods were 71.65% and 54.97% for each. In addition, the efficiency of the found parameters was evaluated by using additional dataset. Further, as for throughput of the recognition per unit time, the constructed DRNN was requiring only 1.347 [ms], while the best traditional method required 11.031 [ms] which includes 11.027 [ms] for feature calculation. These advantages are caused by the compact and small architecture of the constructed real time oriented DRNN.
