Abstract

This paper proposes an algorithm, to enhance the prediction accuracy of inhabitant activities in smart home networks. This work is an enhancement to SPEED [1], which was earlier drawn upon [2,3]. It works with the nested episodes of activity sequences along with the innermost episodes to generate user activity contexts. For a given sequence, our approach on an average predicts 86 percent accurately, which is much better than SPEED’s 59 percent accuracy.
