Abstract – Wearable computing is becoming more and
more incorporated into our daily lives. Wearable gadgets have
recently attracted a lot of attention and widespread
acceptance as a result of their compact size and decent
processing power capabilities. These wearable gadgets with
sensors (e.g. accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.) are excellent
choices for tracking users' daily activities (e.g. walking,
jogging, sleeping, and so on). Human Activity Recognition
(HAR) has the potential to aid in the development of assistive
technologies for the elderly, chronically ill, and those with
special needs. Activity recognition can be used to offer
information on patients' daily activities in order to aid the
development of e-health systems such as Ambient Assisted
Living (AAL). Despite the fact that human activity detection
has been an active field for the development of context-aware
systems for more than a decade, there are still critical issues
that, if addressed, would represent a dramatic shift in how
people interact with smartphones. A broad architecture of the
essential components of any HAR system is described, as well
as a data-gathering architecture for HAR systems. Machine
learning techniques and technologies were used by HAR
systems to generate patterns to characterize, evaluate, and
predict data. Because a human activity recognition system
should return a label such as walking, sitting, running,
sleeping, falling, and so on, most HAR systems are supervised.
The goal of this research is to use multiple machine learning
methods on the UCI Human Activity Recognition dataset.
Bagging with classification trees, logistic regression, support
vector machines, random forest, and generalized linear model
are among the machine learning algorithms or models that
are used;

1. INTRODUCTION
Machine Learning is “the study of computer algorithms that
improve automatically through experience. Applications
range from data mining programs that discover general rules
in large data sets, to information filtering systems that
automatically learn users' interests.” - IEEE Definition.
The IT industry's new dark is artificial intelligence (AI) and
machine learning (ML). From gaming consoles to the
administration of vast volumes of data at work, AI can be
found in a variety of locations. Computer scientists and
engineers are working hard to program machines with
intelligent behavior, allowing them to think and react in real-
time. AI has moved from a research topic to a stage where it
is being implemented in businesses. The science and
engineering of constructing intelligent devices, particularly
computer programs, is known as artificial intelligence (AI).
Artificial Intellect is akin to the job of utilizing computers to
study human intelligence, although AI does not have to be
limited to physiologically observable ways. Simply
expressed, AI's goal is to make computers/computer
programs clever enough to mimic the behavior of the human
mind. Knowledge engineering research is an important part
of AI research. In order to function and behave like people,
machines and programs require a lot of knowledge about the
world. To perform knowledge engineering, AI needs to have
access to attributes, categories, objects, and the relationships
between them. AI imbues machines with common sense,
problem-solving, and analytical thinking abilities, which is a
challenging and time-consuming task. Developers continue
to increase artificial intelligence's powers and potential,
despite ongoing disputes about its safety. Artificial
Intelligence has come a long way since it was first imagined
in science fiction. It became a requirement. AI, which is
commonly used for processing and analyzing large amounts
of data, aids in the handling of tasks that are no longer
possible to complete manually due to their increased volume
and intensity. Wearable devices, such as smartwatches,
Google glasses, fitness trackers, sports watches, smart
clothing, smart jewelry, implantable devices, and others,
have recently attracted a lot of attention and widespread
acceptance due to their small size, reasonable computation
power, and practical power capabilities. These wearable
gadgets, which are equipped with sensors (such as an
accelerometer and a gyroscope), are a strong choice for
tracking users' daily activities (such as walking, jogging, and
smoking). Wearable and non-intrusive technologies for
health and activity monitoring have become more common
as wearable technology has advanced. The users are
motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle as a result of the
continual monitoring of their lives and everyday activities.
