Device-independent Wi-Fi fingerprinting indoor localization model based on domain adaptation by Zenghua ZHAO, Yuefan TONG, Jiayang CUI

“…In real-world large-scale deployments of indoor localization, Wi-Fi fingerprinting approaches suffer from device diversity problem which impacts the localization accuracy significantly.A device-independent Wi-Fi fingerprint indoor localization model DeviceTransfer was proposed.Based on the domain adaptation theory of deep learning, the device type of the smartphone was taken as the domain, the task-related and device-independent Wi-Fi data features were extracted through adversarial training, and the learned source domain location information was transferred to the target domain.Pre-training and joint training were employed to improve model training stability and to accelerate convergence.The performance of DeviceTransfer was evaluated using four types of smartphones in two real-world indoor environments: a school building and a shopping mall.The experimental results show that DeviceTransfer effectively extracts device-independent Wi-Fi fingerprint features.Using only one type of phone to collect Wi-Fi fingerprints, online localization using other types still achieves high localization accuracy, thus reducing localization cost significantly.…”

Smartphone-based indoor localization by fusion of acoustic ranging and PDR by Mao PANG, Mei WANG, Xiyu SONG, Liyan LUO, Kun RUAN

“…A novel indoor localization algorithm that integrates acoustic ranging and pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) algorithm was presented,to reduce the accumulated error of the inertial sensors in the process of indoor positioning using PDR.Firstly,the PDR was used for position estimation.Then,the distance between the mobile phone and the wall was measured by using sound waves,and the cumulative error in the PDR was corrected by combining the above position and the distance with the known indoor map information.Hence,long-term stable indoor positioning can be achieved without laying out any nodes.In order to solve the problem that the echo signals reflected by the wall under long-distance conditions were difficult to detect,signal enhancement on the echoes reflected from the target wall was performed by using beamforming,taking advantage of the characteristics of the built-in dual microphones in the smartphone,then the effective measurement distance was increased and the application range of the proposed method was expanded.Experimental results show that the average positioning error of the proposed fusion localization method is 0.427 m.Compared with the results of using PDR alone,the average positioning error is reduced by 2.748 m.…”

“…Some of these above-mentioned constituent components and elements of the text are considered as lexical and syntactical layers (linguistic field), image: simile, metaphor, and allegory (rhetorical field), and drama (dramatic field) that are engaging in creating implemented meaning.Although the connotation is observed in different layers in Ferdowsi's poetry, insisting on the vocabulary and semantic layers this study has investigated the connotative meaning of Narges dožam (the sad narcissus) in the introduction of the Rostam and Esfandiar story finally had demonstrated this of eyes, crown, and drunkeness has three implicit meanings and the obtained results illustrate the consistency of the narrative context.…”
