Automatic feature selection for context recognition in mobile devices

TL;DR: This study investigates how much advantage can be achieved by using sophisticated and complex classification methods compared with a simple method that can easily be implemented in mobile devices and reports superior performance for the Minimum-distance classifier from the view point of computational load and power consumption of a smart phone.

Improved support vector classification using PCA and ICA feature space modification

TL;DR: An approach that unifies subspace feature selection and optimal classification is presented and results are presented which provide lower classification error and better generalization than can be obtained by the SVC on the raw data and its PCA or ICA subspace representation.
