Simple and Complex Activity Recognition through Smart Phones. Dernbach, S., Das, B., Krishnan, N. C., Thomas, B., & Cook, D.
doi  abstract   bibtex   
Due to an increased popularity of assistive healthcare technologies activity recognition has become one of the most widely studied problems in technology-driven assistive healthcare domain. Current approaches for smart-phone based activity recognition focus only on simple activities such as locomotion. In this paper, in addition to recognizing simple activities, we investigate the ability to recognize complex activities, such as cooking, cleaning, etc. through a smart phone. Features extracted from the raw inertial sensor data of the smart phone corresponding to the user's activities, are used to train and test supervised machine learning algorithms. The results from the experiments conducted on ten participants indicate that, in isolation, while simple activities can be easily recognized, the performance of the prediction models on complex activities is poor. However, the prediction model is robust enough to recognize simple activities even in the presence of complex activities.
