    摘要: Cognitive, progressive methods, systems, and computer program products for guiding users throughout a deployment process involving deploying location sensors throughout an indoor environment based on real-time detection of signals from deployed location sensors and/or distances between location sensors are disclosed, according to various embodiments. The inventive concepts allow real-time sensing and adjustment to the nature of the environment, such as geometry, signal interference, etc. based on sensor readings detected by a user using a sensing device. Additional embodiments include generating a map of the environment based on training data including location sensor signal measurements, identifying information, and location information and static data regarding location sensors deployed throughout the environment. Connections are established between the static and training data, and region types within the environment determined and labeled based on the density of different types of connections and/or connection crossings. The labeled regions are output as a map.

    摘要: Techniques for data integration and labeling are provided. Training real-world signal data is collected for a physical environment, where the training real-world signal data comprises at least one of (i) coordinate information or (ii) a direction to move. Simulated signal data is generated for a first portion of the physical environment, and an aggregate data set is generated comprising the training real-world signal data and the simulated signal data. A machine learning (ML) model is trained using the aggregate data set. A first real-world data point is received, where the first real-world data point does not include coordinate information, and the first real-world data point is labeled based at least in part on coordinate information of the aggregate data set.
