A innovative wavelet transformation method optimization in the noise-canceling application within intelligent...

The study deals with detection of the occupation of Intelligent Building (IB) using data obtained from indirect methods with Big Data Analysis within IoT. In the area of daily living activity monitoring, one of the most challenging tasks is occupancy prediction, giving us information about people's mobility in the building. This task can be done via monitoring of $$ as a reliable method, which has the ambition to predict the presence of the people in specific areas. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid system, which is based on the Support Vector Machine (SVM) prediction of the $$ waveform with the use of sensors that measure indoor/outdoor temperature and relative humidity. For each such prediction, we also record the gold standard $$ signal to objectively compare and evaluate the quality of the proposed system. Unfortunately, this prediction is often linked with a presence of predicted signal activities in the form of glitches, often having an oscillating character, which inaccurately approximates the real $$ signals. Thus, the difference between the gold standard and the prediction results from SVM is increasing. Therefore, we employed as the second part of the proposed system a smoothing procedure based on Wavelet transformation, which has ambitions to reduce inaccuracies in predicted signal via smoothing and increase the accuracy of the whole prediction system. The whole system is completed with an optimization procedure based on the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm, which finally classifies the wavelet's response to recommend the most suitable wavelet settings to be used for data smoothing.
