Less Annotation on Personalized Activity Recognition Using Context Data

Miscellaneous mini-wearable devices (e.g. wristbands, smartwatches, armbands) have emerged in our life, capable of recognizing activities of daily living, monitoring health information, so on. Conventional activity recognition (AR) models deployed inside these devices are generic classifiers learned offline from abundant data. Transferring generic model to user-oriented model requires time-consuming human effort for annotations. To solve this problem, we propose SS-ARTMAP-AR, a self-supervised incremental learning AR model updated from surrounding information such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, GSM data without user's annotation effort. Experimental results show that SS-ARTMAP-AR can gradually adapt individual users, become more incremental intelligence.
