Inception neural network for human activity recognition using wearable sensor by Duo CHAI, Cheng XU, Jie HE, Shao-yang ZHANG, Shi-hong DUAN, Yue QI

“…The experience from computer vision was learned,an innovative neural network model called InnoHAR (inception neural network for human activity recognition) based on the inception neural network and recurrent neural network was put forward,which started from an end-to-end multi-channel sensor waveform data,followed by the 1×1 convolution for better combination of the multi-channel data,and the various scales of convolution to extract the waveform characteristics of different scales,the max-pooling layer to prevent the disturbance of tiny noise causing false positives,combined with the feature of GRU helped to time-sequential modeling,made full use of the characteristics of data classification task.Compared with the state-of-the-art neural network model,the InnoHAR model has a promotion of 3% in the recognition accuracy,which has reached the state-of-the-art on the dataset we used,at the same time it still can guarantee the real-time prediction of low-power embedded platform,also with more space for future exploration.…”

Robust resource allocation algorithm for heterogeneous wireless networkwith SWIPT by Yongjun XU, Yuan HU, Guoquan LI, Jinzhao LIN, Qianbin CHEN

“…To improve energy efficiency and robustness of heterogeneous wireless networks with wireless information and power transfer,the robust joint transmit power and power splitting resource allocation problem was studied.Based on mini-max probability machine and Dinkelbach method,the original NP-hard problem was transformed into a solvable convex optimization form,meanwhile a distributed dual resource allocation algorithm was proposed.Additionally,both computational complexity and robust sensitivity were analyzed.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can guarantee the quality of service requirements of macro cellular users and femtocell users under channel uncertainties.…”
