Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a worldwide network of interconnected uniquely addressable things based on standard communication protocols. In recent years, healthcare has been recognized as one of the most attractive application areas of the IoT, with applications ranging from health monitoring to patient and equipment tracking in home and medical facilities. This talk will be a presentation of my recent work on exploiting RF sensing with commodity WiFi for vital sign monitoring and for fingerprinting based indoor localization. The first part of this talk is to exploit channel state information (CSI) to monitor respiration of a patient with commodity WiFi devices, where a tensor decomposition based design is proposed. The second part of this talk is on our recent work on employing deep learning for fingerprinting based indoor localization. We will present the design of ResLoc, which employs bi-modal CSI tensor data to train a deep residual sharing learning network. Experimental results will be presented to validate the performance of the proposed schemes.
