High accuracy human activity recognition using machine learning and wearable devices’ raw signals

Human activity recognition (HAR) is vital in a wide range of real-life applications such as health monitoring of olderly people, abnormal behaviour detection and smart home management. HAR systems can employ smart human-computer interfaces and be parts of active, intelligent surveillance systems. Th...
