Abstract

We develop a novel deep learning technique for human fall detection using WiFi Channel State Information (CSI) of a WiFi transmitter and receiver. Different motions in the environment generate distinct features in CSI, which can be fed to a supervised learning machine learning algorithm for training. However, the CSI varies from one environment to another, requiring the collection of environment-specific training data. To overcome this challenge, we propose 1-d convolutional neural network using domain adaptation technique. By adapting to un-labeled data from a new environment, we significantly improve precision and recall, making activity recognition accurate in new environments.

The funding for this research has been provided by Furukawa Electric Group.
