Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The implementation of an Indoor Positioning System (IPS) in a three-storey residential building employing WiFi signals that can also be used to track indoor movements is presented in this study. The movement of inhabitants is monitored through an Android smartphone by detecting the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) signals from WiFi Anchor Points (APs).Indoor movement is detected through a successive estimation of a target’s multiple positions. Using the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms, these RSSI measurements are trained for estimating the position of an indoor target. Additionally, the Density-based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) has been integrated into the PSO method for removing RSSI-estimated position outliers of the mobile device to further improve indoor position detection and monitoring accuracy. We also employed Time Reversal Resonating Strength (TRRS) as a correlation technique as the third method of localization. Our extensive and rigorous experimentation covers the influence of various weather conditions in indoor detection. Our proposed localization methods have maximum accuracies of 92%, 80%, and 75% for TRRS, KNN, and PSO + DBSCAN, respectively. Each method also has an approximate one-meter deviation, which is a short distance from our targets.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
