In order to recognise activities, the sensor stream has to be segmented before any classification can be carried out. Many methods handle segmentation and recognition separately. In this study, we propose a method that can segment and recognise activity simultaneously by using a set of trained hidden Markov models and Viterbi algorithm. We evaluate our proposed method on two publicly available smart home datasets. ER -
