This paper is concerned with posture recognition using ensemble convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in home environments. With the increasing number of elderly people living alone at home, posture recognition is very important for helping elderly people cope with sudden danger. Traditionally, to recognize posture, it was necessary to obtain the coordinates of the body points, depth, frame information of video, and so on. In conventional machine learning, there is a limitation in recognizing posture directly using only an image. However, with advancements in the latest deep learning, it is possible to achieve good performance in posture recognition using only an image. Thus, we performed experiments based on VGGNet, ResNet, DenseNet, InceptionResNet, and Xception as pre-trained CNNs using five types of preprocessing. On the basis of these deep learning methods, we finally present the ensemble deep model combined by majority and average methods. The experiments were performed by a posture database constructed at the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Korea. This database consists of 51,000 images with 10 postures from 51 home environments. The experimental results reveal that the ensemble system by InceptionResNetV2s with five types of preprocessing shows good performance in comparison to other combination methods and the pre-trained CNN itself. 15 of 26 preprocessed posture images for the testing was 500 for standing normal, 497 for standing bent, 500 for sitting sofa, 500 for sitting chair, 497 for sitting floor, 498 for sitting squat, 489 for lying face, 489 for lying back, 482 for lying side, 481 for lying crouched, and 2001 for other images. The total number of images for the training, validation, and testing was 44,874, 7913, and 6934, respectively. detector [39], and the segmented person images were filtered manually. The number of preprocessed posture images for the training was 3910 for standing normal, 3802 for standing bent, 3899 for sitting sofa, 3899 for sitting chair, 3896 for sitting floor, 3859 for sitting squat, 3752 for lying face, 3777 for lying back, 3773 for lying side, 3505 for lying crouched, and 6802 for other images. The number of preprocessed posture images for the validation was 689 for standing normal, 670 for standing bent, 688 for sitting sofa, 687 for sitting chair, 687 for sitting floor, 681 for sitting squat, 662 for lying face, 666 for lying back, 665 for lying side, 618 for lying crouched, and 1200 for other images. The number of preprocessed posture images for the testing was 500 for standing normal, 497 for standing bent, 500 for sitting sofa, 500 for sitting chair, 497 for sitting floor, 498 for sitting squat, 489 for lying face, 489 for lying back, 482 for lying side, 481 for lying crouched, and 2001 for other images. The total number of images for the training, validation, and testing was 44,874, 7913, and 6934, respectively.
