| Abstract | Current mobile devices continuously estimate their locations, allowing users to “check in”, find nearby friends and interests, and determine routes to their destinations. While underlying satellite, cell, and WiFi-based positioning systems can return an accurate and meaningful position in many cases, extending them to work energy-efficiently, particularly indoors, remains an open problem. In this work, we study energy-efficient and robust human-scale motion classifiers and their use in room-grain, collaborative indoor positioning systems. Previous work on improving energy-efficiency in positioning systems has assumed sensor input from an energy-cheaper alternative: using an accelerometer in lieu of GPS, for example. Unfortunately, even these alternative sensors are not practical for everyday use because of their own energy consumption, at least when sampled continuously. After studying what accelerometer sampling rates are feasible, we compare six methods for motion classification, two of which are new. We find that the existing simple statistical methods are not sufficiently robust with respect to different kinds of movement and different users, because the thresholds between movement and non-movement are too tight. In contrast we find that the two new, more sophisticated models, one based on Page-Hinkley statistics, and the other inspired by the Discrete Fourier Transform, provide a clearer differentiation between the two states. Only the Page-Hinkley-based one is as energy-efficient as the simple statistical methods, however. Through a WiFi geolocation system that relies on motion detection, we show how the choice of the underlying motion classifier can have a significant impact on user-perceived performance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
