Book Activity Recognition in Pervasive Intelligent Environments

Download or read book Activity Recognition in Pervasive Intelligent Environments written by Liming Chen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-04 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of a number of chapters addressing different aspects of activity recognition, roughly in three main categories of topics. The first topic will be focused on activity modeling, representation and reasoning using mathematical models, knowledge representation formalisms and AI techniques. The second topic will concentrate on activity recognition methods and algorithms. Apart from traditional methods based on data mining and machine learning, we are particularly interested in novel approaches, such as the ontology-based approach, that facilitate data integration, sharing and automatic/automated processing. In the third topic we intend to cover novel architectures and frameworks for activity recognition, which are scalable and applicable to large scale distributed dynamic environments. In addition, this topic will also include the underpinning technological infrastructure, i.e. tools and APIs, that supports function/capability sharing and reuse, and rapid development and deployment of technological solutions. The fourth category of topic will be dedicated to representative applications of activity recognition in intelligent environments, which address the life cycle of activity recognition and their use for novel functions of the end-user systems with comprehensive implementation, prototyping and evaluation. This will include a wide range of application scenarios, such as smart homes, intelligent conference venues and cars.

Book Towards Integrative Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction

Download or read book Towards Integrative Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction written by Andreas Holzinger and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The BIRS Workshop “Advances in Interactive Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining in Complex and Big Data Sets” (15w2181), held in July 2015 in Banff, Canada, was dedicated to stimulating a cross-domain integrative machine-learning approach and appraisal of “hot topics” toward tackling the grand challenge of reaching a level of useful and useable computational intelligence with a focus on real-world problems, such as in the health domain. This encompasses learning from prior data, extracting and discovering knowledge, generalizing the results, fighting the curse of dimensionality, and ultimately disentangling the underlying explanatory factors in complex data, i.e., to make sense of data within the context of the application domain. The workshop aimed to contribute advancements in promising novel areas such as at the intersection of machine learning and topological data analysis. History has shown that most often the overlapping areas at intersections of seemingly disparate fields are key for the stimulation of new insights and further advances. This is particularly true for the extremely broad field of machine learning.

Book Cross domain Scalable Activity Recognition Models in Smart Environments

Download or read book Cross domain Scalable Activity Recognition Models in Smart Environments written by Md Abdullah Al Hafiz Khan and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Activity Recognition (AR) methodology largely depends on the availability of labeled training samples and adaptability of activity recognition models in cross-domains such as diverse users, heterogeneous devices, and different smart environments. The availability of new era of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices ranging from smartphones, smartwatches, micro-radars, Amazon Echo in users everyday environments ease the recognition of human activities, behaviors, and occupancy. Nevertheless, the variabilities across emerging sensors, heterogeneities in consumer devices, and inherent variations in users' activities hinder the design and development of scalable activity recognition models. Motivated by this, in this thesis, we investigate the problem of making human activity recognition scalable-i.e., allowing AR classifiers trained in one context to be readily adapted to a different contextual domain. To allow such adaptation without requiring the onerous step of collecting large volumes of labeled training data, we proposed a transfer learning model that is specifically tuned to the properties of convolutional neural networks (CNNs). We designed different variants of this Heterogeneous Deep Convolutional Neural Network (HDCNN) model that help to automatically adapt and learn the model across different domains, such as different users, device-types, device-instances in presence of completely or partially alike activities in source and target. We also extended the above cross-domain activity recognition models to learn the unseen activities using the deep features transfer learning technique while aggregating the domain knowledge from both the source and target domains. Evaluation on real world datasets attested that our proposed cross-domain activity recognition models are able to achieve high accuracy even without any labeled training data in the target domain, and often offer higher accuracy (compared to shallow and deep classifiers) even with a modest amount of labeled training data.
