AMAR: Lightweight Attention-Based Multi-User Activity Recognition from Wi-Fi CSI
The paper introduces AMAR, a lightweight attention-based framework for multi-user activity recognition using Wi-Fi channel state information. It addresses challenges in recognizing overlapping activities from multiple users by employing a transformer-based architecture. The proposed system significantly improves activity prediction accuracy and reduces bandwidth requirements compared to existing methods.
- ▪AMAR formulates human activity recognition as a set prediction problem to handle multi-user scenarios.
- ▪The framework uses learnable query embeddings for simultaneous identification of multiple activities.
- ▪AMAR achieves an F1-score of 53.4%, outperforming the best benchmark by 7.8%.
- ▪The system reduces occupancy estimation error by 74% while minimizing bandwidth usage.
