Abstract
Although fingerprint-based methods could achieve high location accuracy for device-free indoor localization, it requires cost-expensive massive labeling. In order to fully exploit the previously collected CSI fingerprints for various indoor localization tasks, this letter proposes a meta-learning approach for indoor localization, with which an excellent initialization solution for a new localization task is resorted and further training with a few labeled samples results in sound performance improvement over the state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) approach. By recognizing the unequal contribution of an individual training task to the target task, a novel weighted loss is introduced under the framework of meta-learning. Experiments show that the proposed meta-learning approach can gain improvement of 20% Root-Mean-Square-Error (RMSE) enhancement over the DL approach.
