- Higher order feature extraction and selection for robust human gesture recognition using CSI of COTS Wi-Fi devicesPublication . Ahmed, Hasmath Farhana; Ahmad, Hafisoh; Phang, Swee King; Vaithilingam, Chockalingam; Harkat, Houda; Narasingamurthi, KulasekharanDevice-free human gesture recognition (HGR) using commercial o the shelf (COTS) Wi-Fi devices has gained attention with recent advances in wireless technology. HGR recognizes the human activity performed, by capturing the reflections ofWi-Fi signals from moving humans and storing them as raw channel state information (CSI) traces. Existing work on HGR applies noise reduction and transformation to pre-process the raw CSI traces. However, these methods fail to capture the non-Gaussian information in the raw CSI data due to its limitation to deal with linear signal representation alone. The proposed higher order statistics-based recognition (HOS-Re) model extracts higher order statistical (HOS) features from raw CSI traces and selects a robust feature subset for the recognition task. HOS-Re addresses the limitations in the existing methods, by extracting third order cumulant features that maximizes the recognition accuracy. Subsequently, feature selection methods derived from information theory construct a robust and highly informative feature subset, fed as input to the multilevel support vector machine (SVM) classifier in order to measure the performance. The proposed methodology is validated using a public database SignFi, consisting of 276 gestures with 8280 gesture instances, out of which 5520 are from the laboratory and 2760 from the home environment using a 10 5 cross-validation. HOS-Re achieved an average recognition accuracy of 97.84%, 98.26% and 96.34% for the lab, home and lab + home environment respectively. The average recognition accuracy for 150 sign gestures with 7500 instances, collected from five di erent users was 96.23% in the laboratory environment.
- Sign language gesture recognition with bispectrum features using SVMPublication . Ahmed, Hasmath Farhana Thariq; Ahmad, Hafisoh; Phang, Swee King; Vaithilingam, Chockalingam Aravind; Harkat, Houda; Narasingamurthi, Kulasekharan; Phang, SK; Mahdiraji, GA; Vaithilingam, CAWi-Fi based sensing system captures the signal reflections due to human gestures as Channel State Information (CSI) values in subcarrier level for accurately predicting the fine-grained gestures. The proposed work explores the Higher Order Statistical (HOS) method by deriving bispectram features (BF) from raw signal by adopting a Conditional Informative Feature Extraction (CIFE) technique from information theory to form a subset of informative and best features. Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is adopted in the present work for classifying the gesture and to measure the prediction accuracy. The present work is validated on a secondary dataset, SignFi, having data collected from two different environments with varying number of users and sign gestures. SVM reports an overall accuracy of 83.8%, 94.1%, 74.9% and 75.6% in different environments/scenarios.
