Title
A New Semantic-Based Multi-Level Classification Approach For Activity Recognition Using Smartphones
Abstract
In this paper, we address the problem of recognizing the semantic human activities through the analysis of large dataset collected from users' sensor-based smartphones. Our approach is unique in terms of covering a large number of activities that users could possibly engage in, and considering the multi-level-based classification model. Our model has three properties that never seemed to be addressed by existing approaches dealing with the same problem. These are: (1) comprehensiveness - in terms of the activity set, (2) accuracy - in terms of the activity classification, and (3) applicability - in terms of flexibility in being applied in real-life settings. Current approaches do not tackle all these properties. When tested on realistic dataset, our multi-level-based model achieved promising results despite the large number of activities being considered. When compared to similar approaches, our approach achieved comparable results in terms of accuracy and outperformed them in terms of the activity types, environment and settings covered, comprehensiveness, and applicability.
