Transformer Networks for Data Augmentation of Human Physical Activity Recognition


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Data augmentation is a widely used technique in classification to increase data used in training. It improves generalization and reduces amount of annotated human activity data needed for training which reduces labour and time needed with the dataset. Sensor time-series data, unlike images, cannot be augmented by computationally simple transformation algorithms. State of the art models like Recurrent Generative Adversarial Networks (RGAN) are used to generate realistic synthetic data. In this paper, transformer based generative adversarial networks which have global attention on data, are compared on PAMAP2 and Real World Human Activity Recognition data sets with RGAN. The newer approach provides improvements in time and savings in computational resources needed for data augmentation than previous approach.
