Clinical human activity recognition based on a wearable patch of combined tri-axial ACC and ECG sensors.

The addition of the ECG signal significantly improves HAR outcomes in the group of healthy individuals, while having relatively less enhancing effects on the group of patients with pneumoconiosis. When ECG and ACC signals were combined, the increase in HAR accuracy was notable compared to cases where no ECG data was provided. These results suggest that the combination of ACC and ECG data can represent a novel method for the clinical application of HAR.
