The problem of human activity recognition from mobile sensor data applies to multiple domains, such as health monitoring, personal fitness, daily life logging, and senior care. A critical challenge for training human activity recognition models is data quality. Acquiring balanced datasets containing accurate activity labels requires humans to correctly annotate and potentially interfere with the subjects' normal activities in real-time. Despite the likelihood of incorrect annotation or lack thereof, there is often an inherent chronology to human behavior. For example, we take a shower after we exercise. This implicit chronology can be used to learn unknown labels and classify future activities. In this work, we propose HAR-GCCN, a deep graph CNN model that leverages the correlation between chronologically adjacent sensor measurements to predict the correct labels for unclassified activities that have at least one activity label. We propose a new training strategy enforcing that the model predicts the missing activity labels by leveraging the known ones. HAR-GCCN shows superior performance relative to previously used baseline methods, improving classification accuracy by about 25% and up to 68% on different datasets.
- On the first run of testing or training code, the code will save a pickled version of the processed data for faster production in the next time.
- We used pipreqs to generate the minimum needed dependcies ro tun the code. The necessary packages are in requirements.txt, you can install it by running:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- Dataset folder: contains the processed ExtraSensory and PAMAP dataset with a script to download the data.
- modelsExtraSensory & modelsPAMAP folders: contain our model, HAR-GCNN, and baseline models for each dataset.
- unmaintained folder: contains the notebooks used to process the raw ExtraSensory and PAMAP datasets. This folder is unmaintained and the files within it are only for reference.
- dataset.py: contains the HAR-GCNN dataset.
- train.py: trains and tests our model.
- trainbaseline.py: trains the baseline models.
- train.sh & trainbaslines.sh: original training parameters used to train our model and the baselines.
For example to train HAR-GCNN on the ExtraSensory dataset execute the following command:
python3 train.py --tag test_hargcnn_extrasensory --model hargcnn --normalization abduallahs --nodes_cnt 3 --randomseed 0
To test the trained model add --test to the training command, for example:
python3 train.py --tag test_hargcnn_extrasensory --model hargcnn --normalization abduallahs --nodes_cnt 3 --randomseed 0 --test
We used randomseed = {0,1,2} and reported the mean of these runs. Other examples for training settings can be found in train.sh and trainbaselines.sh.
