TOKYO :Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd. and Kumamoto University has announced the development of technology to easily create the training data necessary to apply AI to time-series data, such as those from accelerometers and gyroscopic sensors.
Time-series data obtained from sensors does not include anything other than every-changing numerical data.
Now, Fujitsu Laboratories and Kumamoto University have enabled the automatic creation of highly accurate training data with appropriate labels for each action, just by manually attaching a single label to each longer time period, even if they include multiple actions, indicating the major action in that time period according to human judgement.
Development Background
In recent years, with the evolution of technology such as the Internet of Things (IoT), it has become possible to obtain a large amount time-series data from a variety of sensors. For example, by developing a functionality in which AI can determine the meaning of the motions of people and objects from the characteristics captured by accelerometers, it is expected that advanced functionality for monitoring people and machines can be incorporated into smartphones and various equipment. In order to apply AI to this sort of time-series data, it is necessary to create training data to train AI.
