• Abstract: Fingerprint localization has gained significant attention due to its cost-effective deployment, low complexity, and high efficacy. However, traditional methods, while effective for static data, often struggle in dynamic environments where data distributions and feature spaces evolve-a common occurrence in real-world scenarios. To address the challenges of robustness and adaptability in fingerprint localization for dynamic indoor environments, this paper proposes DF-Loc, an end-to-end dynamic fingerprint localization system based on multi-source unsupervised domain adaptation (MUDA). DF-Loc leverages historical data from multiple time scales to facilitate knowledge transfer in specific feature spaces, thereby enhancing generalization capabilities in the target domain and reducing reliance on labeled data. Specifically, the system incorporates a Quality Control (QC) module for CSI data preprocessing and employs image processing techniques for CSI fingerprint feature reconstruction. Additionally, a multi-scale attention-based feature fusion backbone network is designed to extract multi-level transferable fingerprint features. Finally, a dual-stage alignment model aligns the distributions of multiple source-target domain pairs, improving regression characteristics in the target domain. Extensive experiments conducted in office and classroom environments demonstrate that DF-Loc outperforms comparative methods in terms of both localization accuracy and robustness. With 60% of reference points used for training, DF-Loc achieves average localization errors of 0.79m and 3.72m in "same-test" scenarios, and 0.94m and 4.39m in "different-test" scenarios, respectively. This work pioneers an end-to-end multi-source transfer learning approach for fingerprint localization, providing valuable insights for future research in dynamic environments.

  Human pose estimation (HPE) has received increasing attention recently due to its wide application in motion analysis, virtual reality, healthcare, etc. It suffers from the lack of labeled diverse real-world datasets due to the time- and labor-intensive annotation.

  Source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to adapt a well-trained source model to an unlabelled target domain without accessing the source dataset. Existing SFDA methods ONLY assess their adapted models on the target training set, neglecting the data from unseen but identically distributed testing sets. We propose a consistency regularization framework to develop a more generalizable SFDA method.
