Convolutional Mixture Density Recurrent Neural Network for Predicting User Location with WiFi Fingerprints
share
Predicting smartphone users activity using WiFi fingerprints has been a popular approach for indoor positioning in recent years. However, such a high dimensional time-series prediction problem can be very tricky to solve. To address this issue, we propose a novel deep learning model, the convolutional mixture density recurrent neural network (CMDRNN), which combines the strengths of convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks and mixture density networks. In our model, the CNN sub-model is employed to detect the feature of the high dimensional input, the RNN sub-model is utilized to capture the time dependency and the MDN sub-model is for predicting the final output. For validation, we conduct the experiments on the real-world dataset and the obtained results illustrate the effectiveness of our method.
