通过概念不变性学习,提升传感器活动识别的跨人泛化能力。
Generalizable Sensor-Based Activity Recognition via Categorical Concept Invariant Learning
- 引入概念矩阵约束,同时优化特征与输出不变性
- 在四个公开数据集上均显著超越现有方法
- 特别适合跨人群、跨设备场景下的活动识别应用
人体活动识别(HAR)旨在利用大量传感器数据训练模型以识别活动。但在实际部署中,因个体差异(如年龄、性别、行为习惯等)导致测试集分布与训练集不同,严重制约模型泛化性能。现有方法多仅关注倒数第二层特征的域不变性,效果有限。本文提出类别概念不变性学习(CCIL)框架,通过概念矩阵在训练阶段同时约束特征不变性和输出不变性:同一活动类别的样本应具有相似的概念矩阵。在四个公开HAR基准数据集上的大量实验表明,CCIL在跨人、跨数据集、跨位置及一人到另一人等设置下均显著优于当前最优方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Human Activity Recognition (HAR) aims to recognize activities by training models on massive sensor data. In real-world deployment, a crucial aspect of HAR that has been largely overlooked is that the test sets may have different distributions from training sets due to inter-subject variability including age, gender, behavioral habits, etc., which leads to poor generalization performance. One promising solution is to learn domain-invariant representations to enable a model to generalize on an unseen distribution. However, most existing methods only consider the feature-invariance of the penultimate layer for domain-invariant learning, which leads to suboptimal results. In this paper, we propose a Categorical Concept Invariant Learning (CCIL) framework for generalizable activity recognition, which introduces a concept matrix to regularize the model in the training stage by simultaneously concentrating on feature-invariance and logit-invariance. Our key idea is that the concept matrix for samples belonging to the same activity category should be similar. Extensive experiments on four public HAR benchmarks demonstrate that our CCIL substantially outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches under cross-person, cross-dataset, cross-position, and one-person-to-another settings.
