Automatic recognition of activities of daily living (ADL) can be applied to realize services to support user life such as elderly monitoring, energy-saving home appliance control, and health support. In particular, “real-time” ADL recognition is essential to realize such a service that the system needs to know the user's current activity. There are many studies on ADL recognition. However, none of these studies address all of the following problems: (1) privacy intrusion due to the utilization of high privacy-invasive devices such as cameras and microphones; (2) limited number of recognizable activities; (3) low recognition accuracy; (4) high deployment and maintenance costs due to many sensors used; and (5) long recognition time. In our prior work, we proposed a system which solves the problems (1)– (4) to some extent by using user's position data and power consumption data of home electric appliances. In this paper, aiming to solve all the above problems including (5), we propose a new system by extending our prior work. To realize “real-time” ADL recognition while keeping good recognition accuracy, we developed new power meters with higher sensing frequency and introduced new techniques such as adding new features, selecting the best subset of the features, and selecting the best training dataset used for machine learning. We collected the sensor data in our smart home facility for 11 days, and applied the proposed method to these sensor data. As a result, the proposed method achieved accuracy of 79.393% in recognizing 10 types of ADLs.

IoT (Internet of Things) has attracted a lot of attention recently. IoT devices need to report their data or status to base stations at various frequencies. The IoT communications observed by a base station normally exhibit the following characteristics: (1) massively connected, (2) lightly loaded per packet, and (3) periodical or at least mostly predictable. The current design principals of communication networks, when applied to IoT scenarios, however, do not fit well to these requirements. For example, an IPv6 address is 128 bits, which is much longer than a 16-bit temperature report. Also, contending to send a small packet is not cost-effective. In this work, we propose a novel framework, which is slot-based, schedule-oriented, and identity-free for uploading IoT devices' data. We show that it fits very well for IoT applications. We propose two schemes, from an ideal one to a more practical one. The main idea is to bundle time slots with certain hashing functions of device IDs, thus significantly reducing transmission overheads, including device IDs and contention overheads.
物联网(Internet of Things)最近引起了人们的广泛关注。物联网设备需要以不同的频率向基站报告其数据或状态。基站观察到的物联网通信通常具有以下特征:(1)大规模连接，(2)每个数据包的负载较轻，以及(3)周期性或至少大部分可预测。然而，当应用于物联网场景时，当前通信网络的设计原则并不能很好地满足这些要求。例如，IPv6地址是128位，比16位的温度报告长得多。此外，争着发送一个小数据包是不划算的。在这项工作中，我们提出了一个新的框架，该框架基于插槽，面向时间表，并且无需身份来上传物联网设备的数据。我们证明它非常适合物联网应用。我们提出了两种方案，从理想方案到比较实际的方案。其主要思想是将时隙与设备id的某些散列函数捆绑在一起，从而显著降低传输开销，包括设备id和争用开销。

Future power networks are supposed to contain various power sources in mesh-like structures, including distributed generations such as solar panels, wind power generations, and electric vehicles (EVs) that work not only as transportation but as huge batteries. These power sources have their own characteristics such as cost, stability, amounts of CO2 emission, etc. Hence it is desired to use them efficiently in a way suited for various characteristics of power consuming devices; for example, a desktop computer should be supplied with power from sufficiently stable power sources such as a commercial power source, while a laptop computer with a battery may accepts less stable power from natural power sources. In the concept of Energy-on-Demand (EoD), Quality-of-Energy (QoEn) power routing has been proposed to realize end-to-end power routing between power sources and power consuming device for efficient use of various power sources to optimize power allocation. This abstract describes the design and prototype implementation of the EoD system with multiple power resources utilizing power allocation management based on the Multiple Knapsack Problem with Assignment Restrictions (MK-AR), a kind of the combinatorial optimization problem.

The experience of negative emotions in everyday life, such as anger and anxiety, can have adverse effects on long-term cardiovascular health. However, objective measurements provided by mobile technology can promote insight into this psychobiological process and promote self-awareness and adaptive coping. It is postulated that the creation of a mobile lifelogging platform can support this approach by continuously recording personal data via mobile/wearable devices and processing this information to measure physiological correlates of negative emotions. This paper describes the development of a mobile lifelogging system that measures anxiety and anger during real-life driving. A number of data streams have been incorporated in the platform, including cardiovascular data, speed of the vehicle and first-person photographs of the environment. In addition, thirteen participants completed five days of data collection during daily commuter journeys to test the system. The design of the system hardware and associated data streams are described in the current paper, along with the results of preliminary data analysis.

This paper discusses the design and development efforts made to collect data using an opportunistic crowdsensing mobile application. Relevant issues are underlined, and solutions proposed within the CHIST-ERA Macaco project for the specifics of collecting fine-grained content and context data are highlighted. Global statistics on the data gathered for over a year of collection show its quality: Macaco data provides a long-term and fine-grained sampling of the user behavior and network usage that is relevant to model and analyse for future content and context-aware networking developments.

Mobile IoT devices enable new classes of systems, such as cyber-physical systems. These systems pose challenges as they should seamlessly interact with users and other systems. In this paper, we address the problem of interaction between mobile pervasive IoT devices. Our contributions are threefold. First, we present a concept for a framework for coordination of mobile IoT devices. Second, we implement a reusable robot platform using the Mindstorms toolkit and a customizable adaptation logic for their coordination based on our framework. Third, we show its usability with two applications: an intelligent vehicle highway system as well as a smart vacuum cleaner.

Infrastructure monitoring applications currently lack a cost-effective and reliable solution for supporting the last communication hop for low-power devices. The use of cellular infrastructure requires contracts and complex radios that are often too power hungry and cost prohibitive for sensing applications that require just a few bits of data each day. New low-power, sub-GHz, long-range radios are an ideal technology to help fill this communication void by providing access points that are able to cover multiple kilometers of urban space with thousands of end-point devices. These new Low-Power Wide-Area Networking (LPWAN) platforms provide a cost-effective and highly deployable option that could piggyback off of existing public and private wireless networks (WiFi, Cellular, etc). In this paper, we present OpenChirp, a prototype end-to-end LPWAN architecture built using LoRa Wide-Area Network (LoRaWAN) with the goal of simplifying the design and deployment of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices across wide areas like campuses and cities. We present a software architecture that exposes an application layer allowing users to register devices, describe transducer properties, transfer data and retrieve historical values. We define a service model on top of LoRaWAN that acts as a session layer to provide basic encoding and syntax to raw data streams. At the device-level, we introduce and benchmark an open-source hardware platform that uses Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) to help provision LoRa clients that can be extended with custom transducers. We evaluate the system in terms of end-node energy consumption, radio penetration into buildings as well as coverage provided by a network currently deployed at Carnegie Mellon University.

In this demo we present a tool that allows us to visualize the real world events on a map interface using the contents shared by users on Twitter and Instagram. Social networks have become popular in recent times for sharing contents about observations made by users. Our tool incorporates a novel algorithm that analyzes the data from both Twitter and Instagram for fusing the contents corresponding to the same event thereby enhancing the corroboration of the event detection techniques for the individual networks. In addition to providing a much cleaner information our tool leverages the various data available from both the social networks (text, images, geo-data) to improve the overall experience of the user visualizing the events.

Activity recognition using smartphone has great potential in many applications like healthcare, obesity management, abnormal behavior detection, public safety and security etc. Typical activity detection systems are built on to recognize a limited set of activities that are present in the training and testing environments. However, these systems require similar data distributions, activity sets and sufficient labeled training data in both training and testing phases. Therefore, inferring new activities is challenging in practical scenarios where training and testing environments are volatile, data distributions are diverge and testing environment has new set of activities with limited training samples. The shortage of labeled training data samples also degrades the activity recognition performance. In this work, we address these challenges by augmenting the Instance based Transfer Boost algorithm with k-means clustering. We evaluated our TransAct model with three public datasets - HAR, MHealth and DailyAndSports and demonstrated that our TransAct model outperforms traditional activity recognition approaches. Our experimental results show that our TransAct model achieves ≈ 81% activity detection accuracy on average.

The use of smartphone and wearable devices in various sporting events is an optimistic opportunity to profile player's physical fitness and physiological health conditioning attributes. Recently a variety of commercial wearables with respect to different sports are available in the market. As these wearables differ for distinctive sports, it becomes a hassle to effectively profile them for multiple sports sessions in day to day practice events. Wrist worn devices like smartwatches are becoming a trend in sports analytics recently and researchers are leveraging them to infer various contexts of the players to improve the quality, tactics, strategy of playing matches against the opponents. Visual observation is the most popular way to track a player's abilities in soccer, but as a player it is not always possible to self-assess your own strengths and weaknesses in a field. In this paper, we propose to exploit the wrist worn devices with built in accelerometer to help represent attributes of technical judgement, tactical awareness and physical aspects of a soccer player. We propose to use deep learning to build our classification model which analyzes different soccer events like in-possession, pass, kick, sprint, run and dribbling. Based on these soccer events, we evaluate the overall ability of a soccer player. Our experiments show that, these wearable technology guided attributes profiling can help a coach or scout to better understand the competence of a player in addition to traditional visual observation.

Our experiments show that, these wearable technology guided attributes profiling can help a coach or scout to better understand the competence of a player in addition to traditional visual observation.","PeriodicalId":319638,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications Workshops (PerCom Workshops)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116178894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
