In-depth analysis of design & development for sensor-based human activity recognition system

Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has gained much attention since sensor technology has become more advanced and cost-effective. HAR is a process of identifying the daily living activities of an individual with the help of an efficient learning algorithm and prospective user-generated datasets. This paper addresses the technical advancement and classification of HAR systems in detail. Design issues, future opportunities, recent state-of-the-art related works, and a generic framework for activity recognition are discussed in a comprehensive manner with analytical discussion. Different publicly available datasets with their features and incorporated sensors are also descr-processing techniques with various performance metrics like - Accuracy, F1-score, Precision, Recall, Computational times and evaluation schemes are discussed for the comprehensive understanding of the Activity Recognition Chain (ARC). Different learning algorithms are exploited and compared for learning-based performance comparison. For each specific module of this paper, a compendious number of references is also cited for easy referencing. The main aim of this study is to give the readers an easy hands-on implementation in the field of HAR with verifiable evidence of different design issues.
