Abstract
En 中文
Automatic activity recognition is an active research topic which aims to identify human activities automatically. A significant challenge is to recognize new activities effectively. In this paper, we propose an effective class incremental learning method, named Class Incremental Random Forests (CIRF), to enable existing activity recognition models to identify new activities. We design a separating axis theorem based splitting strategy to insert internal nodes and adopt Gini index or information gain to split leaves of the decision tree in the random forests (RF). With these two strategies, both inserting new nodes and splitting leaves are allowed in the incremental learning phase. We evaluate our method on three UCI public activity datasets and compare with other state-of-the-art methods. Experimental results show that the proposed incremental learning method converges to the performance of batch learning methods (RF and extremely randomized trees). Compared with other state-of-the-art methods, it is able to recognize new class data continuously with a better performance. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
