Deep learning models for human activity recognition (HAR) based on sensor data have been heavily studied recently. However, the generalization ability of deep models on complex real-world HAR data is limited by the availability of high-quality labeled activity data, which are hard to obtain. In this article, we design a similarity embedding neural network that maps input sensor signals onto real vectors through carefully designed convolutional and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) layers. The embedding network is trained with a pairwise similarity loss, encouraging the clustering of samples from the same class in the embedded real space, and can be effectively trained on a small dataset and even on a noisy dataset with mislabeled samples. Based on the learned embeddings, we further propose both nonparametric and parametric approaches for activity recognition. Extensive evaluation based on two public datasets has shown that the proposed similarity embedding network significantly outperforms state-of-the-art deep models on HAR classification tasks, is robust to mislabeled samples in the training set, and can also be used to effectively denoise a noisy dataset.

Human activity recognition (HAR) has vital applications in human–computer interaction, somatosensory games, and motion monitoring, etc. On the basis of the human motion accelerate sensor data, through a nonlinear analysis of the human motion time series, a novel method for HAR that is based on non-linear chaotic features is proposed in this paper. First, the C-C method and G-P algorithm are used to, respectively, compute the optimal delay time and embedding dimension. Additionally, a Reconstructed Phase Space (RPS) is formed while using time-delay embedding for the human accelerometer motion sensor data. Subsequently, a two-dimensional chaotic feature matrix is constructed, where the chaotic feature is composed of the correlation dimension and largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE) of attractor trajectory in the RPS. Next, the classification algorithms are used in order to classify and recognize the two different activity classes, i.e., basic and transitional activities. The experimental results show that the chaotic feature has a higher accuracy than traditional time and frequency domain features.

Queue length estimation is of great importance for signal performance measures and signal optimization. With the development of connected vehicle technology and mobile internet technology, using mobile sensor data instead of fixed detector data to estimate queue length has become a significant research topic. This study proposes a queue length estimation method using low-penetration mobile sensor data as the only input. The proposed method is based on the combination of Kalman Filtering and shockwave theory. The critical points are identified from raw spatiotemporal points and allocated to different cycles for subsequent estimation. To apply the Kalman Filter, a state-space model with two state variables and the system noise determined by queue-forming acceleration is established, which can characterize the stochastic property of queue forming. The Kalman Filter with joining points as measurement input recursively estimates real-time queue lengths; on the other hand, queue-discharging waves are estimated with a line fitted to leaving points. By calculating the crossing point of the queue-forming wave and the queue-discharging wave of a cycle, the maximum queue length is also estimated. A case study with DiDi mobile sensor data and ground truth maximum queue lengths at Huanggang-Fuzhong intersection, Shenzhen, China, shows that the mean absolute percentage error is only 11.2%. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis shows that the proposed estimation method achieves much better performance than the classical linear regression method, especially in extremely low penetration rates.
