Abstract

Our demonstration consists of a working activity and gait recognition system, implemented on a commercial smartphone. The activity recognition feature allows participants to train various activities, such as running, walking, or jumping, on the phone; the system can then identify when those activities are performed. The gait recognition feature learns particular characteristics of how participants walk, allowing the phone to identify the person carrying it.
