  • Publication number: 20230055065
    Abstract: Disclosed are an indoor non-contact human activity recognition method and system. The method comprises: collecting an indoor reflected signal by using an antenna array; filtering the reflected signal to obtain a noise-removed reflection signal; and inputting the noise-removed reflected signal to a pre-trained human activity recognition model, and determining a human activity category, the human activity recognition model being a pre-trained CNN network model based on a transfer learning algorithm. The recognition method and system have the advantages that: the antenna array is configured for collecting human actions to carry out activity recognition indoors, which can be applied to home-based care scenes; original data is denoised, so that most of high-frequency noises can be removed, and a phase change of the signal is reserved; a CNN structure is adopted for training so as to reduce a complexity of the system location-free sensing.

  • Patent number: 11490128
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a deep neural network (DNN)-based reconstruction method and apparatus for compressive video sensing (CVS).
