Abstract

Automatic activity recognition systems aim to capture the state of the user and its environment by exploiting heterogeneous sensors, and permit continuous monitoring of numerous physiological signals, where these sensors are attached to the subject's body. This can be immensely useful in healthcare applications, for automatic and intelligent daily activity monitoring for elderly people. In this paper, we present novel data analytic scheme for intelligent Human Activity Recognition (AR) using smartphone inertial sensors based on information theory based feature ranking algorithm and classifiers based on random forests, ensemble learning and lazy learning. Extensive experiments with a publicly available database1 of human activity with smart phone inertial sensors show that the proposed approach can indeed lead to development of intelligent and automatic real time human activity monitoring for eHealth application scenarios for elderly, disabled and people with special needs.
