Summary:
Human activity recognition using wearable devices is becoming increasingly important. Techniques that estimate and recognize walking states while walkers carry an object in hand can be useful for safety and security. In this paper, we examine the recognition of walking states while walkers carry an object like a shoulder bag from data obtained by attaching a triaxial accelerometer to the wrists of walkers. The experimental results demonstrate that some states can be roughly identified from the accelerations and power spectrums.
