A dataset for Wi-Fi-based human-to-human interaction recognition

摘要

This paper presents a dataset for Wi-Fi-based human-to-human interaction recognition that comprises twelve different interactions performed by 40 different pairs of subjects in an indoor environment. Each pair of subjects performed ten trials of each of the twelve interactions and the total number of trials recorded in our dataset for all the 40 pairs of subjects is 4800 trials (i.e., 40 pairs of subjects × 12 interactions × 10 trials). The publicly available CSI tool [1] is used to record the Wi-Fi signals transmitted from a commercial off-the-shelf access point, namely the Sagemcom 2704 access point, to a desktop computer that is equipped with an Intel 5300 network interface card. The recorded Wi-Fi signals consist of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values and the Channel State Information (CSI) values. Unlike the publicly available Wi-Fi-based human activity datasets, which mainly have focused on activities performed by a single human, our dataset provides a collection of Wi-Fi signals that are recorded for 40 different pairs of subjects while performing twelve two-person interactions. The presented dataset can be exploited to advance Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition in different aspects, such as the use of various machine learning algorithms to recognize different human-to-human interactions.
