Abstract

Sensor-Based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) is a study of recognizing the human’s activities by using the data captured from wearable sensors. Avail the temporal information from the sensors, a modified version of random forest is proposed to preserve the temporal information, and harness them in classifying the human activities. The proposed algorithm is tested on 7 public HAR datasets. Promising results are reported, with an average classification accuracy of ~ 98%.
