• Title: CHARM: A Hierarchical Deep Learning Model for Classification of Complex Human Activities Using Motion Sensors
• Authors: Eric Rosen and Doruk Senkal
• Abstract summary: CHARM is a hierarchical deep learning model for classification of complex human activities using motion sensors. It outperforms state-of-the-art supervised learning approaches for high-level activity recognition in terms of average accuracy and F1 scores. The ability to learn low-level user activities when trained using only high-level activity labels may pave the way to semi-supervised learning of HAR tasks.

• Abstract: In this paper, we report a hierarchical deep learning model for classification of complex human activities using motion sensors. In contrast to traditional Human Activity Recognition (HAR) models used for event-based activity recognition, such as step counting, fall detection, and gesture identification, this new deep learning model, which we refer to as CHARM (Complex Human Activity Recognition Model), is aimed for recognition of high-level human activities that are composed of multiple different low-level activities in a non-deterministic sequence, such as meal preparation, house chores, and daily routines. CHARM not only quantitatively outperforms state-of-the-art supervised learning approaches for high-level activity recognition in terms of average accuracy and F1 scores, but also automatically learns to recognize low-level activities, such as manipulation gestures and locomotion modes, without any explicit labels for such activities. This opens new avenues for Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) modalities using wearable sensors, where the user can choose to associate an automated task with a high-level activity, such as controlling home automation (e.g., robotic vacuum cleaners, lights, and thermostats) or presenting contextually relevant information at the right time (e.g., reminders, status updates, and weather/news reports). In addition, the ability to learn low-level user activities when trained using only high-level activity labels may pave the way to semi-supervised learning of HAR tasks that are inherently difficult to label.

  We present an empirical study that evaluates and contrasts four commonly employed annotation methods in user studies focused on in-the-wild data collection. For both the user-driven, in situ annotations, where participants annotate their activities during the actual recording process, and the recall methods, where participants retrospectively annotate their data at the end of each day, the participants had the flexibility to select their own set of activity classes and corresponding labels.

  Human Activity Recognition (HAR) describes the machines ability to recognize human actions. Challenge in HAR is to overcome the difficulties of separating human activities based on the given data. Deep Learning techniques like Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Bi-Directional LS classifier, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) are trained. Experiment results proved that the Linear Support Vector in machine learning and Gated Recurrent Unit in Deep Learning provided better accuracy for human activity recognition.

  Acquiring balanced datasets containing accurate activity labels requires humans to correctly annotate and potentially interfere with the subjects' normal activities in real-time. We propose HAR-GCCN, a deep graph CNN model that leverages the correlation between chronologically adjacent sensor measurements to predict the correct labels for unclassified activities. Har-GCCN shows superior performance relative to previously used baseline methods, improving classification accuracy by about 25% and up to 68% on different datasets.

Our framework, the Human Activity Knowledge Engine (HAKE), exhibits superior generalization ability and performance upon challenging benchmarks.
