Abstract

Acquiring an ongoing human activity from raw sensor data is a challenging problem in pervasive systems. Earlier, research in this field has mainly adopted data-driven or knowledge based techniques for the activity recognition, however these techniques suffer from a number of drawbacks. Therefore, recent works have proposed a combination of these techniques. Nevertheless, they still do not handle sensor data uncertainty. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid model called AGACY Monitoring to cope with the uncertain nature of the sensor data. Moreover, we present a new algorithm to infer the activity instances by exploiting the obtained uncertainty values. The experimental evaluation of AGACY Monitoring with a large real-world dataset has proved the viability and efficiency of our solution.
