摘要：Indoor localization based on WiFi signal strength fingerprinting techniques have been attracting many research efforts in past decades. Many localization algorithms have been proposed in order to achieve higher localization accuracy. In this paper, we investigate Bayes learning algorithms and some common-used machine learning algorithms. We identify a general problem of Zero Probability (ZP) which may cause significant decrease of accuracy. In order to solve this problem, we propose an Improved Naive Bayes Simple learning algorithm, namely INBS, based on our data set characteristic. INBS is applicable even though Zero Probability problem occurs. We design experiments based on off-the-shelf WiFi devices, mobile phones and well-known machine learning tool Weka. Our experiments are conducted on a floor covering 560m(2) in a campus building and a laboratory covering 78m(2). Experiment results show that INBS outperforms traditional Naive Bayes and k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) algorithms and two common-used machine learning algorithms in terms of accuracy.
