چکیده

Activity recognition has become the necessity of smart homes, future factories, and surveillance. Activities independent of body posture predominantly exhibiting gestures involving both arm and the wrist motion supports the use of the wearable sensors for data acquisition. This paper uses an algorithm based prediction method to recognize the Activities of Daily Life (ADL) involving activities like mobility, feeding, and functional transfers. The classification of the various activities were carried out by using decision tree – J48 algorithm from the acquired dataset.

Recognizing upper limb movements with wrist worn inertial sensors using k-means clustering classification.

In this paper we present a methodology for recognizing three fundamental movements of the human forearm (extension, flexion and rotation) using pattern recognition applied to the data from a single wrist-worn, inertial sensor. We propose that this technique could be used as a clinical tool to assess rehabilitation progress in neurodegenerative pathologies such as stroke or cerebral palsy by tra...

An Activity Recognition Framework Deploying the Random Forest Classifier and A Single Optical Heart Rate Monitoring and Triaxial Accelerometer Wrist-Band †

Wrist-worn sensors have better compliance for activity monitoring compared to hip, waist, ankle or chest positions. However, wrist-worn activity monitoring is challenging due to the wide degree of freedom for the hand movements, as well as similarity of hand movements in different activities such as varying intensities of cycling. To strengthen the ability of wrist-worn sensors in detecting hum...

Physical activity classification using the GENEA wrist-worn accelerometer.

INTRODUCTION Most accelerometer-based activity monitors are worn on the waist or lower back for assessment of habitual physical activity. Output is in arbitrary counts that can be classified by activity intensity according to published thresholds. The purpose of this study was to develop methods to classify physical activities into walking, running, household, or sedentary activities based on r...

Object-Based Activity Recognition with Heterogeneous Sensors on Wrist

This paper describes how we recognize activities of daily living (ADLs) with our designed sensor device, which is equipped with heterogeneous sensors such as a camera, a microphone, and an accelerometer and attached to a user’s wrist. Specifically, capturing a space around the user’s hand by employing the camera on the wrist mounted device enables us to recognize ADLs that involve the manual us...

Relation of Accelerometer and EMG Recordings for the Measurement of Upper Extremity Movement

In order to determine the value of accelerometry as a measure of real world outcome when a subject is outside the laboratory, accelerometer recordings from the wrist were compared with simultaneous electromyogram (EMG) recordings from the lower and upper arm. Accelerometer and EMG signals were recorded simultaneously by the “Kölner Vitaport System,” an ambulatory device. Six male subjects perfo...
