The paper presents a novel approach to domain adaptation in Human Activity Recognition (HAR) tasks, particularly in cross-user scenarios where data distribution discrepancies are common. The Deep Generative Domain Adaptation with Temporal Attention (DGDATA) method addresses this challenge by recognizing and integrating temporal relations within time series data during the domain adaptation process. By combining generative models with a Temporal Relation Attention mechanism, DGDATA improves classification performance in cross-user HAR tasks. The proposed method is evaluated on three public sensor-based HAR datasets, demonstrating its efficacy for various scenarios and applications.

This paper is about a new way to help machines recognize human activities when the data used to train them comes from different people or situations. Normally, these types of machine learning problems assume that all the data is similar and independent. But in real-life situations, this isn’t always true. For example, when recognizing activities using sensors, the same activity might be performed differently by different people. The paper presents a new approach called DGDATA (Deep Generative Domain Adaptation with Temporal Attention) to address these challenges. This method uses both generative models and attention mechanisms to better recognize activities across different people and situations.
