Overcoming Data Scarcity in Human Activity Recognition.

Wearable sensors have become increasingly popular in recent years, with technological advances leading to cheaper, more widely available, and smaller devices. As a result, there has been a growing interest in applying machine learning techniques for Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in healthcare. These techniques can improve patient care and treatment by accurately detecting and analyzing various activities and behaviors.

HARE: Unifying the Human Activity Recognition Engineering Workflow.

Sensor-based human activity recognition is becoming ever more prevalent. The increasing importance of distinguishing human movements, particularly in healthcare, coincides with the advent of increasingly compact sensors. A complex sequence of individual steps currently characterizes the activity recognition pipeline.

SONAR, a nursing activity dataset with inertial sensors.

Accurate and comprehensive nursing documentation is essential to ensure quality patient care. To streamline this process, we present SONAR, a publicly available dataset of nursing activities recorded using inertial sensors in a nursing home. The dataset includes 14 sensor streams, such as acceleration and angular velocity, and 23 activities recorded by 14 caregivers using five sensors for 61.
