abstract

  • Human activity recognition (HAR) based on wearable devices has become an active research direction in the field of ubiquitous computing, and has a wide range of Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Unfortunately, it is challenging to obtain large amounts of labeled sensing data, and manual annotation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it impossible for the extensive deployment of HAR systems. Consequently, self-supervised learning has emerged to address this challenge by training on unlabeled data. However, traditional contrastive learning fails to simulate more sample diversity problems caused by environmental heterogeneity and sensor heterogeneity. In this paper, we propose a multi-positive sample quantum contrastive learning (MPSQCL) framework. By increasing the positive samples for contrastive learning and leveraging the advantages of quantum machine learning (QML) techniques, the richer features of input samples are extracted to improve the robustness and generalization of the model. Moreover, we design a new contrastive loss function to adapt to multiple positive sample contrastive learning scenarios. Finally, we validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework on several publicly available HAR datasets.
