A Stacked Denoising Autoencoder and Long Short-Term Memory Approach With Rule-Based Refinement to Extract Valid Semantic Trajectories

Abstract

Indoor location-based services have been widely investigated to take advantage of semantic trajectories for providing user oriented services in indoor environments. Although indoor semantic trajectories can provide seamless understanding to users regarding the provided location-based services, studies on the application of deep learning approaches for robust and valid semantic indoor localization are lacking. In this study, we combined a stacked denoising autoencoder and long short term memory technique with a rule-based refinement method applying a rule-based hidden Markov model (HMM) to perform robust and valid semantic trajectory extraction. In particular, our rule-based HMM approach incorporates a direct set of rules into HMM to resolve invalid movements of the extracted semantic trajectories and is extensible to various deep learning techniques. We compared the performance of our proposed approach with that of other cutting-edge deep learning approaches on two different real-world data sets. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of our proposed approach to produce more robust and valid semantic trajectories.

“…Various machine learning algorithms have been studied and deployed. Neural Network model Tsai et al (2009); Babai et al (2020); Yustiawan et al (2021) is widely used in long-term demand prediction. Grimme et al (2020) use them for short-term demand forecasting.…”
