    abstract = {The last 20 years have seen an ever increasing research activity in the field of human activity recognition. With activity recognition having considerably matured so did the number of challenges in designing, implementing and evaluating activity recognition systems. This tutorial aims to provide a comprehensive hands-on introduction for newcomers to the field of human activity recognition. It specifically focuses on activity recognition using on-body inertial sensors. We first discuss the key research challenges that human activity recognition shares with general pattern recognition and identify those challenges that are specific to human activity recognition. We then describe the concept of an activity recognition chain (ARC) as a general-purpose framework for designing and evaluating activity recognition systems. We detail each component of the framework, provide references to related research and introduce the best practise methods developed by the activity recognition research community. We conclude with the educational example problem of recognising different hand gestures from inertial sensors attached to the upper and lower arm. We illustrate how each component of this framework can be implemented for this specific activity recognition problem and demonstrate how different implementations compare and how they impact overall recognition performance.},

General Notes

The data should be arranged in a MATLAB matrix with rows denoting the frames (samples) and columns denoting the different sensors or axes -> matrix NxM (N: frames, M: sensors/axes) IMPORTANT: make sure the matrix does not contain any timestamp columns as often added by data recording toolboxes, such as the Context Recognition Network Toolbox
The ground truth labels should be integers, arranged in a MATLAB vector with rows denoting the frames -> vector Nx1 (N: frames)
The data matrix should be loaded into the variable data, the ground truth label vector into the variable labels
The NULL class needs to have label 1, the remaining classes labels 2:n
If you want to modify the default parameters of the different classifiers have a look at setClassifier.m
This toolbox requires the following MATLAB toolboxes:
- Statistics
To compile the different third-party libraries have a look at the documentation

How to reproduce the results from the paper

Execute run_experiments_paper.m in MATLAB

Specific notes on how to create and run your own experiment

Have a look at settings.m This file contains all settings available in the toolbox and their defaults. All settings are stored in a MATLAB struct SETTINGS. Set the different fields in this struct according to the requirements of your planned experiment.
Have a look at Experiments/expTutorial.m and run the script This file contains a (simple) example structure of an experiment. Note how settings.m is executed first, followed by modifications to the SETTINGS fields.

optional: Install all third-party libraries you plan to use (see list below). Archives of all supported libraries are provided in the subdirectory "Libraries". The libraries should be installed in the same directory. If you prefer to install the libraries in a different path, adapt the library paths in settings.m accordingly (line 33 and following)
To create your own experiment
Copy Experiments/expTutorial.m to Experiments/expOwn.m
Write code in expOwn.m to modify SETTINGS according to your experiment's requirements, in particular:

SETTINGS.CLASSIFIER (default: 'knnVoting')
SETTINGS.FEATURE_SELECTION (default: 'none')
SETTINGS.FEATURE_TYPE (default: 'VerySimple')
SETTINGS.EVALUATION (default: 'pd')
SETTINGS.SAMPLINGRATE (in Hz, default: 32)
SETTINGS.SUBJECT (default: 1)
SETTINGS.SUBJECT_TOTAL (default: 2)
SETTINGS.DATASET (default: 'gesture')
SETTINGS.CLASSLABELS (default: {'NULL', 'Open window', 'Drink', 'Water plant',
    'Close window', 'Cut', 'Chop', 'Stir', 'Book', 'Forehand', 'Backhand', 'Smash'})
SETTINGS.SENSOR_PLACEMENT (default: {'Right hand', 'Right lower arm', 'Right upper arm'})
SETTINGS.FOLDS (default: 26)
SETTINGS.SENSORS_AVAILABLE = {'acc_1_x', 'acc_1_y', 'acc_1_z', ...
                            'gyr_1_x', 'gyr_1_y', ...
                            'acc_2_x', 'acc_2_y', 'acc_2_z', ...
                            'gyr_2_x', 'gyr_2_y', ...
                            'acc_3_x', 'acc_3_y', 'acc_3_z', ...
                            'gyr_3_x', 'gyr_3_y'};
SETTINGS.SENSORS_USED (default: {'acc_1', 'acc_2', 'acc_3', 'gyr_1', 'gyr_2', 'gyr_3'})

Change the EXPERIMENT_NAME and IDENTIFIER_NAME variables in expOwn.m For example, EXPERIMENT_NAME could be set to 'kNN' and IDENTIFIER_NAME to 'k_5' if your experiment involves using a kNN classifier with k fixed to 5.
Put your data files in subdirectories of "Data" named according to the scheme: subjectX_Y
- X denotes the index of the subject (1:SETTINGS.SUBJECT_TOTAL)
- Y denotes the type of dataset (SETTINGS.DATASET plus additional ones) For example, the toolbox datasets are stored in the following subdirectories: subject1_walk, subject1_gesture, subject2_walk, subject2_gesture The data files should be called "data.mat" and should contain both variables data and labels
Run expOwn.m and wait for the script to finish. Extracted features will be saved in "Output/features" whereas the experiment output will be saved in "Output/experiments/EXPERIMENT_NAME/IDENTIFIER_NAME"
