In the recent years there has been a growing interest in techniques able to automatically recognize activities performed by people. This field is known as Human Activity recognition (HAR).

Abstract

In the recent years there has been a growing interest in techniques able to automatically recognize activities performed by people. This field is known as Human Activity recognition (HAR). HAR can be crucial in monitoring the wellbeing of the people, with special regard to the elder population and those people affected by degenerative conditions. One of the main challenges concerns the diversity of the population and how the same activities can be performed in different ways due to physical characteristics and life-style. In this paper we explore the possibility of exploiting physical characteristics and signal similarity to achieve better results with respect to deep learning classifiers that do not rely on this information.
