• Abstract summary: Human Activity Recognition (HAR) from wearable sensor data identifies movements or activities in unconstrained environments. We propose the use of neural networks for the generation of realistic signals and features using human activity monocular videos. We show how these generated features and signals can be utilized, instead of their real counterparts, to train HAR models.

• Abstract: Human Activity Recognition (HAR) from wearable sensor data identifies movements or activities in unconstrained environments. HAR is a challenging problem as it presents great variability across subjects. Obtaining large amounts of labelled data is not straightforward, since wearable sensor signals are not easy to label upon simple human inspection. In our work, we propose the use of neural networks for the generation of realistic signals and features using human activity monocular videos. We show how these generated features and signals can be utilized, instead of their real counterparts, to train HAR models that can recognize activities using signals obtained with wearable sensors. To prove the validity of our methods, we perform experiments on an activity recognition dataset created for the improvement of industrial work safety. We show that our model is able to realistically generate virtual sensor signals and features usable to train a HAR classifier with comparable performance as the one trained using real sensor data. Our results enable the use of available, labelled video data for training HAR models to classify signals from wearable sensors.

  Device-free wireless sensing has recently attracted significant interest due to its potential to support a wide range of immersive human-machine interactive applications. Data heterogeneity in wireless signals and data privacy regulation of distributed sensing have been considered as the major challenges that hinder the wide applications of wireless sensing in large area networking systems. We propose a novel zero-shot wireless sensing solution that allows models constructed in one or a limited number of locations to be directly transferred to other locations without any labeled data.

  A key problem holding up progress in wearable sensor-based human activity recognition is the unavailability of diverse and labeled training data. We propose an unsupervised statistical feature-guided diffusion model specifically optimized for wearable sensor-based human activity recognition. By conditioning the diffusion model on statistical information such as mean, standard deviation, Z-score, and skewness, we generate diverse and representative synthetic sensor data.
