• Abstract summary: We implement a deep learning based pedestrian dead reckoning model that provides a high-rate estimation of the relative position of the user. Using Kalman Filter, we correct the PDR's drift using WiFi that provides a prediction of the user's absolute position each time a WiFi scan is received. Finally, we adjust Kalman Filter results with a map-free projection method that takes into account the physical constraints of the environment.

• Abstract: We address the indoor localization problem, where the goal is to predict user's trajectory from the data collected by their smartphone, using inertial sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer, as well as other environment and network sensors such as barometer and WiFi. Our system implements a deep learning based pedestrian dead reckoning (deep PDR) model that provides a high-rate estimation of the relative position of the user. Using Kalman Filter, we correct the PDR's drift using WiFi that provides a prediction of the user's absolute position each time a WiFi scan is received. Finally, we adjust Kalman Filter results with a map-free projection method that takes into account the physical constraints of the environment (corridors, doors, etc.) and projects the prediction on the possible walkable paths. We test our pipeline on IPIN'19 Indoor Localization challenge dataset and demonstrate that it improves the winner's results by 20\% using the challenge evaluation protocol.

• Environmental Sensor Placement with Convolutional Gaussian Neural Processes [65.13973319334625]
  It is challenging to place sensors in a way that maximises the informativeness of their measurements, particularly in remote regions like Antarctica. Probabilistic machine learning models can suggest informative sensor placements by finding sites that maximally reduce prediction uncertainty. This paper proposes using a convolutional Gaussian neural process (ConvGNP) to address these issues.

  PointGoal navigation in indoor environment is a fundamental task for personal robots to navigate to a specified point. To improve the PointGoal navigation accuracy without GPS signal, we use visual odometry (VO) and propose a novel action integration module (AIM) trained in unsupervised manner. Experiments show that the proposed system achieves satisfactory results and outperforms the partially supervised learning algorithms on the popular Gibson dataset.

  We consider the problem of predicting cellular network performance (signal maps) from measurements collected by several mobile devices. We formulate the problem within the online federated learning framework: (i) federated learning enables users to collaboratively train a model, while keeping their training data on their devices. We consider an honest-but-curious server, who observes the updates from target users participating in FL and infers their location using a deep leakage from gradients (DLG) type of attack. We build on this observation to protect location privacy, in our setting, by revisiting and designing mechanisms within the federated learning framework including: tuning the FL

We propose a system architecture to scan the surrounding WiFi AP, and perform unsupervised learning to demonstrate that it is possible to identify three major insights.
