Data sources

The following diagram shows that data collection and data processing of out human behavior monitoring robot system. We collected 5 different angle (2 hips, 2 knees and body angle) data from the calculation based on RGB-D image from Kinect sensor, while mobile robot tracking and following human subject from side viewpoints. Then, we preprocessed angle data using quantization method; Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is applied based on the quantized data. Applying HMM, first we collect training data from experiments of different activities, then we test the activities based on the calculated parameters from training process. Finally, our system output is states of the predefined activiteies.

For each datasource the following table is fulfilled:

Name

Rigth hip angle data

Description of the information measured

Calculated from shoulder center point, right hip point and right knee points extracted from RGB.D image of kinect sensor (Extracted joint points from RGB-D image, which is captured image of tracked human subject attached color markers to his/her lower limb joints).

Units

Degrees

Example values

0-180 degrees

Frequency of generated data in operation

FPS of calculation of angle data is around 13-15.

 

Name

Left hip angle data

Description of the information measured

Calculated from shoulder center point, left hip point and left knee points extracted from RGB.D image of kinect sensor (Extracted joint points from RGB-D image, which is captured image of tracked human subject attached color markers to his/her lower limb joints).

Units

Degrees

Example values

0-180 degrees

Frequency of generated data in operation

FPS of calculation of angle data is around 13-15.

 

Same as above for Right knee angle data and left knee angle data.

Name

Body angle data

Description of the information measured

Calculated from shoulder center point, hip center point and virtual ground point extracted from RGB.D image of kinect sensor (Extracted joint points from RGB-D image, which is captured image of tracked human subject attached color markers to his/her lower limb joints).

Units

Degrees

Example values

0-180 degrees

Frequency of generated data in operation

FPS of calculation of angle data is around 13-15.

DataSets

After, for instance, 30 minutes operation the competitor generates the following data sets:

  1. An array of arrays that include: [time, body angle, left knee angle, right knee angle, left hip angle, right hip angle], every 100ms.
  2. Images data set

Files:

  1. A file containing these samples in mat format
  2. Images got from Kinect.
