Enhanced Human Activity Recognition Based on Smartphone Sensor Data Using Hybrid Feature Selection Model

Human activity recognition (HAR) techniques are playing a significant role in monitoring the daily activities of human life such as elderly care, investigation activities, healthcare, sports, and smart homes. Smartphones incorporated with varieties of motion sensors like accelerometers and gyroscopes are widely used inertial sensors that can identify different physical conditions of human. In recent research, many works have been done regarding human activity recognition. Sensor data of smartphone produces high dimensional feature vectors for identifying human activities. However, all the vectors are not contributing equally for identification process. Including all feature vectors create a phenomenon known as 'curse of dimensionality'. This research has proposed a hybrid method feature selection process, which includes a filter and wrapper method. The process…
