The aim of the project is to design an energy-efficient context-aware strategy for activity recognition using sparse sampling and sensor data compression. Prototyping will be done in Python. Evaluation will be performed on free-living dataset and benchmarked in terms of energy/memory savings, time constraints and quality of information retrieved. Machine learning techniques will be applied for pattern recognition.

Learning Objectives

  • Gain overview on the state-of-the-art of software-based sparse sampling and signal compression for wearable devices.
  • Learn concepts of data compression.
  • Learn concepts of sparse sampling.
