Room Occupancy Detection using Modified Stacking

Published: 24 February 2017 Publication History

Abstract

Occupancy detection is a binary classification task. However, in this paper, stacking for multiclass classification is applied to detect occupancy of a room. Neural network with duo outputs are combined with stacking. The outputs of stacking for multiclass classification are then integrated to get a binary classification. The occupancy detection dataset obtained from UCI Machine Learning Repository is used in the experiment. It is found that our proposed stacking technique provides better accuracy result than the traditional stacking for binary classification.
