Title
Opportunistic sensing for inferring in-the-wild human contexts based on activity pattern recognition using smart computing
Abstract
In recent years, with the evolution of internet-of-things and smart sensing technologies, sensor-based physical activity recognition has gained substantial prominence, and numerous research works have been conducted in this regard. However, the accurate recognition of in-the-wild human activities and the associated contexts remains an open research challenge to be addressed. This research work presents a novel activity-aware human context recognition scheme that explicitly learns human activity patterns in diverse behavioral contexts and infers in-the-wild user contexts based on physical activity recognition. In this aspect, five daily living activities, e.g., lying, sitting, standing, walking, and running, are associated with overall fourteen different behavioral contexts, including phone positions. A public domain dataset, i.e., ExtraSensory, is used for evaluating the proposed scheme using a series of machine learning classifiers. Random Forest classifier achieves the best recognition rate of 88.4% and 89.8% in recognizing five physical activities and the associated behavioral contexts, respectively, which demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed method.
