Abstract: Sensor-based human activity recognition is a growing field of research. In addition to recognising everyday movements, situation-dependent activities can also be detected. This paper therefore aims to detect care-specific movements. For this purpose, 13 different nursing activities were recorded with Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) worn on the body. In this paper, we present an approach on how the sensor data can be used for recognition. Convolutional neural networks were used for classification. The focus of this work is on two different fusion approaches of the data to check which approach achieves better results. In the first approach, all data is fused at the beginning, while in the second one, a separate pipeline is designed for each sensor and fused later. The results show that a later fusion technique provides a better F1 score of 90.2 % compared to a model that considers all signals from the beginning (F1 score: 82.5 %).
