Track 1: In-door Localization
The purpose of this document is to collect information about the “Intermediate Data” of each competitor’s system for the Track in-door localization in evAAL 2012 Competition, that took held in Madrid (Spain) in July 2012.
evAAL Competition is promoting the publication of such information during the competition tests so they can be used together with Final Datasets for research purposes.
The following diagrams shows what does organization team mean by Intermediate DataSets. Each competitor may identify their own subcomponents in the building blocks below. Intermediate datasets are RAW data or Pre-processed data that you use as a input for your algorithms in order to create the final processed information which in the end is the final goal of your system.
Each competitor provides information about:
- Data sources: type of information generated by the sensing system and measurement units
- Data sets: the files containing the intermediate data.
- Devices: which devices have been used for the beanchmark and where they were places in the Living Lab.
