Multi-Modal Dataset of Human Activities of Daily Living with Ambient Audio, Vibration, and Environmental Data

The detection of human activities is an important step in automated systems to understand the context of given situations. It can be useful for applications like healthcare monitoring, smart homes, and energy management systems for buildings. To achieve this, a sufficient data basis is required. The presented dataset contains labeled recordings of 25 different activities of daily living performed individually by 14 participants. The data were captured by five multisensors in supervised sessions in which a participant repeated each activity several times. Flawed recordings were removed, and the different data types were synchronized to provide multi-modal data for each activity instance. Apart from this, the data are presented in raw form, and no further filtering was performed. The dataset comprises ambient audio and vibration, as well as infrared array data, light color and environmental measurements. Overall, 8615 activity instances are included, each captured by the five multisensor devices. These multi-modal and multi-channel data allow various machine learning approaches to the recognition of human activities, for example, federated learning and sensor fusion.
