Popis: Activity recognition has recently gained a lot of interest and there already exist several methods to detect human activites based on wearable sensors. Most of the existing methods rely on a database of labelled activities that is used to train an offline activity recognition system. This paper presents an approach to build an online activity recognition system that do not require any a priori labelled data. The system incrementally learns activities by actively querying the user for labels. To choose when the user should be queried, we compare a method based on random sampling and another that uses a Growing Neural Gas (GNG). The use of GNG helps reducing the number of user queries by 20% to 30%.
