• Abstract: Data augmentation is a widely used technique in classification to increase data used in training. It improves generalization and reduces amount of annotated human activity data needed for training which reduces labour and time needed with the dataset. Sensor time-series data, unlike images, cannot be augmented by computationally simple transformation algorithms. State of the art models like Recurrent Generative Adversarial Networks (RGAN) are used to generate realistic synthetic data. In this paper, transformer based generative adversarial networks which have global attention on data, are compared on PAMAP2 and Real World Human Activity Recognition data sets with RGAN. The newer approach provides improvements in time and savings in computational resources needed for data augmentation than previous approach.

• Enhancing Activity Recognition After Stroke: Generative Adversarial Networks for Kinematic Data Augmentation [0.0]
  Generalizability of machine learning models for wearable monitoring in stroke rehabilitation is often constrained by the limited scale and heterogeneity of available data. Data augmentation addresses this challenge by adding computationally derived data to real data to enrich the variability represented in the training set. This study employs Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (cGANs) to create synthetic kinematic data from a publicly available dataset. By training deep learning models on both synthetic and experimental data, we enhanced task classification accuracy: models incorporating synthetic data attained an overall accuracy of 80.0%, significantly higher than the 66.1% seen in models trained solely with real data

  Deep learning in computer vision has achieved great success with the price of large-scale labeled training data. The uncontrollable data collection process produces non-IID training and test data, where undesired duplication may exist. To circumvent them, an alternative is to generate synthetic data via 3D rendering with domain randomization.
