Human activity recognition algorithm based on the spatial feature for WBAN

Abstract

Traditional image-based activity recognition algorithms have some problems,such as high computational cost,numerous blind spots and easy privacy leakage.To solve the problem above,the CCLA (convolution-convolutional long short-term memory-attention) activity recognition algorithm based on the acceleration and gyroscope data was proposed.The convolutional neural network was used to extract spatial features of activity data and got the hidden time series information from the convolutional long short-term memory network.Simulating human brain selecting attention mechanism,attention-encoder was constructed to extract the spatial and temporal features at a higher level.The CCLA algorithm was tested on UCI-HAPT (university of California Irvine-smartphone-based recognition of human activities and postural transitions) public data set,and realized the classification of 12 types of activity with the accuracy of 93.27%.
