In the mobile computing era, smartphones have become instrumental tools to develop innovative mobile context-aware systems.In that sense, their usage in the vehicular domain eases the development of novel and personal FOLIC ACID transportation solutions.In this frame, the present work introduces an innovative mechanism to perceive the current kinematic state of a vehicle on the basis of the accelerometer data from a smartphone mounted in the vehicle.
Unlike previous proposals, the introduced architecture targets the computational limitations of such devices to carry out the detection process following an incremental approach.For its realization, we have evaluated different classification Masters of the Universe algorithms to act as agents within the architecture.Finally, our approach has been tested with a real-world dataset collected by means of the ad hoc mobile application developed.
