Abstract

We present a new dataset, called Orange4Home, of activities of daily living of one inhabitant in a smart home environment. We collected data from 236 heterogeneous sensors in a fully integrated instrumented apartment. Data collection spanned 4 consecutive weeks of working days for a total of around 180 h of recording. 20 classes of varied activities were labeled in situ. We report the methodology adopted to establish a representative, challenging dataset, as well as present the apartment and sensors used to collect this data.
