Abstract

A system that can determine states of human activity and transitions between those states using wireless signal data. A machine learning model such as a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) may be trained to determine transitions between states of human activity (e.g., static, slow movement, fast movement) using information from wireless signal data, such as channel state information gathered from Wi-Fi signal beacons. Depending on the state of the human activity the system may then cause certain commands to be executed corresponding to the human activity such as turning on a certain configuration of lights, playing certain music, or the like.
