Attention-based Walking Gait and Direction Recognition in Wi-Fi Networks
share
The study of human gait recognition has been becoming an active research field. In this paper, we propose to adopt the attention-based Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) encoder-decoder framework to implement a cycle-independent human gait and walking direction recognition system in Wi-Fi networks. For capturing more human walking dynamics, two receivers together with one transmitter are deployed in different spatial layouts. In the proposed system, the Channel State Information (CSI) measurements from different receivers are first gathered together and refined to form an integrated walking profile. Then, the RNN encoder reads and encodes the walking profile into primary feature vectors. Given a specific recognition task, the decoder computes a corresponding attention vector which is a weighted sum of the primary features assigned with different attentions, and is finally used to predict the target. The attention scheme motivates our system to learn to adaptively align with different critical clips of CSI data sequence for human walking gait and direction recognitions. We implement our system on commodity Wi-Fi devices in indoor environment, and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model can achieve promising average F1 scores of 95.35 group of 11 subjects and 96.92 directions.
