Inertial sensor dataset for Dog Posture Recognition

This dataset contains inertial data collected from 42 healthy apprentice dogs (1 Golden Retriever, 16 Labrador Retrievers and 25 Crosses) participating in the assistance dog programme. During the video recorded data collection session, five postures (Standing, Sitting, Lying down, Walking, and Body shake) were annotated and further classified into two types (Dynamic, Static). The subjects wore inertial measurement units (IMUs) in three locations (back, neck, and chest) simultaneously. Inertial data were gathered using ActiGraph GT9X Links (Actigraph LLC, Pensacola, USA) containing three-axial accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer with a 100Hz sampling rate. A detailed description of the data provided in each of the .csv files is presented in the readme.md file.

The authors of the dataset request researchers to cite the publication when using the data and publishing results produced using it.

本数据集收录了42只健康实习犬（1只金毛寻回犬、16只拉布拉多寻回犬及25只杂交犬）在辅助犬项目中的惯性数据。在视频录制的数据收集过程中，对五种姿态（站立、坐下、躺下、行走及身体颤抖）进行了标注，并进一步将其划分为动态和静态两种类型。实验对象同时佩戴了位于背部、颈部和胸部的惯性测量单元（IMU）。惯性数据通过ActiGraph GT9X Links（Actigraph LLC，彭萨科拉，美国）收集，该设备内置三轴加速度计、陀螺仪和磁力计，采样频率为100Hz。每个.csv文件中提供的数据的详细描述均可在readme.md文件中查阅。数据集的作者要求在使用数据并基于其发表研究成果时引用相关出版物。爱尔兰科克大学学院（University College Cork, UCC）的动物伦理实验委员会（AEEC）和社会研究伦理委员会（SREC）已授予伦理批准。本出版物部分资助来源于爱尔兰-威尔士INTERREG计划下的CALIN项目[PG；资助编号80885；https://irelandwales.eu/projects/calin]，爱尔兰科学基金会（SFI）[PG, BO；资助编号12/RC/2289-P2；https://www.sfi.ie/]以及SFI和农业、食品及海洋部[PG, BO；资助编号16/RC/3835；https://www.sfi.ie/，https://www.gov.ie/en/organisation/department-of-agriculture-food-and-the-marine/]。资助方未参与研究设计、数据收集与分析、出版决策或文稿的准备工作。
