Notes

The early work...

ISWC 1999 and 2000 had some of the first papers that used wearable accelerometers for activity recognition in general. One of the very first (Golding & Lesh, 1999) mentions actigraphy and monitoring patients with mood disorders as related work.. seems that the field hasn't progressed much?

Unresolved questions: (how) did the compass drift? --> update by kristof: Doh! It was the accelerometers, not the compass.. and the drift was about them shifting in the toolbelt

(Randell & Muller, 2000) is very short and proposes to recognise basic activities from accelerometer data.

The "What shall we teach our pants?" (Van Laerhoven & Cakmakci, 2000) paper illustrates the same, but stressing on the need for online learning with some user involvement, using Kohonen maps.

Annotation Methods

We had a meeting about annotation methods on Jan. 24, 2008. The notes of this meeting are here.
