A Human Activity Recognition Algorithm Based on Stacking Denoising Autoencoder and LightGBM.

Recently, the demand for human activity recognition has become more and more urgent. It is widely used in indoor positioning, medical monitoring, safe driving, etc. Existing activity recognition approaches require either the location information of the sensors or the specific domain knowledge, which are expensive, intrusive, and inconvenient for pervasive implementation.

Pedestrian Stride-Length Estimation Based on LSTM and Denoising Autoencoders.

Accurate stride-length estimation is a fundamental component in numerous applications, such as pedestrian dead reckoning, gait analysis, and human activity recognition. The existing stride-length estimation algorithms work relatively well in cases of walking a straight line at normal speed, but their error overgrows in complex scenes. Inaccurate walking-distance estimation leads to huge accumulative positioning errors of pedestrian dead reckoning.
