A Novel Sensor

Recent advances in production techniques improve sensitivity

Sensolute GmbH www.sensolute.com

Devices have become sensitive and stabile Asks the question, what can we do with this that we couldn’t before?

How does it compare with an acceleration sensor for activity recognition?

The Data stream

Digital output signal from MVS Interesting units are the unary signal transitions: “events” Events summed over short windows to produce the amplitude of a cumulative wave This signal “comparable” to analog sensor output Sample windows can now be generated using a sliding or

  • verlapping window

Classification

3 classification phases

Phase 1: Personalized classification, all subjects, 80%-20% Phase 2: Generalized classification, 4 vs. 1 Phase 3: Post-hoc sensing, light temperature acceleration, + MVS

Classification using WEKA toolkit and three popular classifiers

K-Nearest-Neighbors Naïve Bayes C4.5 Decision Tree

3-Phase Results

ADXL outperformed the MVS Recognition drop from personalized to generalized

29.4% for the MVS 56.6% for ADXL

4% increase when adding the MVS

MVS Results in Detail

Personalized classification, C4.5 Decision Tree Activities which consist of impacts (footfalls, bumps, etc.) are better recognized due to their high frequency components Activities with slow or rounded movements have worse recognition rates The “Typing” anomaly: high classification rate with many false positives

Does not indicate that “typing” is easy to recognize System minimizes error by classifying all sample windows with very little or no activity as typing

Conclusions

The MVS can be used to sense concussions high-frequency vibrations Low cost in terms of size, consumption and price Can increase recognition rates in wearable systems But, it will not replace the acceleration sensor
