Online Learning algorithms and Indoor Positioning Systems are complex applications in the environment of cyber-physical systems. These distributed systems are created by networking intelligent machines and autonomous robots on the Internet of Things using embedded systems that enable the exchange of information at any time. This information is processed by Machine Learning algorithms to make decisions about current developments in production or to influence logistics processes for optimization purposes. In this article, we present and categorize the further development of the prototype of a novel Indoor Positioning System, which constantly adapts its knowledge to the conditions of its environment with the help of Online Learning. Here, we apply Online Learning algorithms in the field of sound-based indoor localization with low-cost hardware and demonstrate the improvement of the system over its predecessor and its adaptability for different applications in an experimental case study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
