epsicar: An emerging patterns based approach to sequential, interleaved and concurrent activity recognition
2009 IEEE international conference on pervasive computing and …, 2009•ieeexplore.ieee.org
Recognizing human activities from sensor readings has recently attracted much research
interest in pervasive computing. This task is particularly challenging because human
activities are often performed in not only a simple (ie, sequential), but also a complex (ie,
interleaved and concurrent) manner in real life. In this paper, we propose a novel emerging
patterns based approach to sequential, interleaved and concurrent activity recognition
(epSICAR). We exploit emerging patterns as powerful discriminators to differentiate …

Recognizing human activities from sensor readings has recently attracted much research interest in pervasive computing. This task is particularly challenging because human activities are often performed in not only a simple (i.e., sequential), but also a complex (i.e., interleaved and concurrent) manner in real life. In this paper, we propose a novel emerging patterns based approach to sequential, interleaved and concurrent activity recognition (epSICAR). We exploit emerging patterns as powerful discriminators to differentiate activities. Different from other learning-based models built upon the training dataset for complex activities, we build our activity models by mining a set of emerging patterns from the sequential activity trace only and apply these models in recognizing sequential, interleaved and concurrent activities. We conduct our empirical studies in a real smart home, and the evaluation results demonstrate that with a time slice of 15 seconds, we achieve an accuracy of 90.96% for sequential activity, 87.98% for interleaved activity and 78.58% for concurrent activity.
