MetaGanFi

Human has an unique gait and prior works show increasing potentials in using WiFi signals to capture the unique signature of individuals' gait. However, existing WiFi-based human identification (HI) systems have not been ready for real-world deployment due to various strong assumptions including identification of known users and sufficient training data captured in predefined domains such as fixed walking trajectory/orientation, WiFi layout (receivers locations) and multipath environment (deployment time and site). In this paper, we propose a WiFi-based HI system, MetaGanFi, which is able to accurately identify unseen individuals in uncontrolled domain with only one or few samples. To achieve this, the MetaGanFi proposes a domain unification model, CCG-GAN that utilizes a conditional cycle generative adversarial networks to filter out irrelevant perturbations incurred by interfering domains. Moreover, the MetaGanFi proposes a domain-agnostic meta learning model, DA-Meta that could quickly adapt from one/few data samples to accurately recognize unseen individuals. The comprehensive evaluation applied on a real-world dataset show that the MetaGanFi can identify unseen individuals with average accuracies of 87.25% and 93.50% for 1 and 5 available data samples (shot) cases, captured in varying trajectory and multipath environment, 86.84% and 91.25% for 1 and 5-shot cases in varying WiFi layout scenarios, while the overall inference process of domain unification and identification takes about 0.1 second per sample.
