Human activity recognition making use of long short-term memory techniques
The optimisation and validation of a classifiers performance when applied to real
world problems is not always effectively shown. In much of the literature describing
the application of artificial neural network architectures to Human Activity
Recognition (HAR) problems, postural transitions are grouped together and treated as
a singular class. This paper proposes, investigates and validates the development of
an optimised artificial neural network based on Long-Short Term Memory techniques
(LSTM), with repeated cross validation used to validate the performance of the
classifier. The results of the optimised LSTM classifier are comparable or better to
that of previous research making use of the same dataset, achieving 95% accuracy
under repeated 10-fold cross validation using grouped postural transitions. The work
in this paper also achieves 94% accuracy under repeated 10-fold cross validation
whilst treating each common postural transition as a separate class (and thus
providing more context to each activity)
