Description

Crowd-sourced signal map construction method based on self-encoder
Technical Field
The invention relates to a crowdsourcing signal map construction method, in particular to a crowdsourcing signal map construction method based on a self-encoder.
Background
Signal maps, which consist of signal strengths at different locations, play an important role in site spectrum monitoring, location Based Services (LBS), network construction and network optimization. For example, a signal map may be used for fingerprint-based indoor location to provide better location services, while a user may use the signal map to learn about current network conditions to select a suitable location to experience better mobile network services. ISPs can use signal maps to learn about network conditions and optimize network architecture to provide better service coverage. Especially in the prospect of 5G networks, the signal map may also be used to analyze the current 4G network to guide the deployment of the 5G network. Despite its importance, building a signal map by a professional's hand-held device is time consuming and laborious. To solve this problem, the chinese patent publication No. CN106157342a proposes an automatic calibration method and system for signal map, which uses a mobile signal receiver to collect signals and construct a signal map, and the method effectively reduces manpower but has high cost and small moving range. With the development of electronic technology, mobile devices are becoming a necessary tool for people, and meanwhile, the mobile devices are also provided with a plurality of sensors, so that the crowdsourcing mode for constructing a signal map becomes possible. However, crowdsourcing often requires a large number of participants to construct a signal map, but users are more passive to this, which results in fewer participants. In order to solve the problem, the Chinese patent with publication number of CN104380294A 'Wi-Fi signal map construction device and method' proposes to construct a database of a user resident location and implicitly collect signals, and the method can effectively solve the problem of a small number of participants, but the construction of the location database involves user privacy and needs frequent updating of the database. While document 1 (Steering Crowdsourced Signal Map Construction via Bayesian Compressive Sensing) proposes to infer an incomplete signal map by means of bayesian compressed sensing to obtain a complete signal map, the method has high calculation cost, certain requirements on the structure of the original signal map and certain limitations on the applicability of the method.

(2) According to the size of the budget cost, setting the number of required crowdsourcing signals and formulating a corresponding excitation mechanism, and preferentially selecting grids with higher importance to collect signals and upload the signals so as to form an incomplete signal map;
(3) Taking the collected incomplete signal map as input, and inputting the incomplete signal map into a self-encoder model after off-line training for fine adjustment to obtain a complete signal map;
(4) And calculating the reconstruction precision of the collected signals by using a cross-validation method, comparing the reconstruction precision with a preset threshold value, and repeating the process until the threshold value requirement is met if the threshold value requirement is not met.
Further, the method for calculating the importance of the step (1) includes the following steps:
(1) Taking a preset value of a missing value in the signal map as input of a self-encoder for offline training, and outputting the preset value as a default signal map;
(2) Comparing the average value in the historical signal with a default signal map under the condition of no crowdsourcing signal, wherein the difference degree is used as the importance of the next round of signal collection;

The method is different from the traditional signal map construction method, and the method learns the internal rules existing in a large number of historical incomplete signal maps by means of the self-encoder, and deduces the missing value of the incomplete signal map obtained at this time so as to obtain a complete signal map. Therefore, the crowdsourcing signal map construction method of the present invention does not require a prior complete signal map and does not require a large number of crowdsourcing participants.
The beneficial effects are that: compared with the traditional signal map collecting mode, the method does not need professional on-site measurement; compared with the common crowdsourcing mode, the invention does not need a plurality of crowdsourcing participants; compared with the prior missing value inference method, the method has better reconstruction accuracy.

As shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment includes two stages, an off-line training stage and an on-line reconstruction stage.
1. The off-line training stage is divided into the following steps (fig. 2):

(2) The 5000×120×100-dimensional incomplete historical signal map is flattened into 5000×12000-dimensional vectors to form a historical signal map matrix with behavior moments listed as grid numbers. The matrix is then used as input to a self-encoder (fig. 3) for training, the self-encoder structure being as shown in fig. 3, wherein the black circles represent the uncollected signals;
a self-encoder is an unsupervised neural network model that includes two parts: the encoder may learn implicit features present in the input data; the decoder uses the learned implicit features to reconstruct the original input data. In this embodiment, the encoder is composed of a single-layer neural network, i.e., an input layer (incomplete signal pattern) and a single-layer hidden layer; the decoder is also composed of a single-layer neural network, i.e. a single-layer hidden layer and an output layer (reconstructing the complete signal diagram). Wherein the number of neurons in the hidden layer should be no less than the number of known elements in the input data, which can be determined by a cross-validation method.
(3) Selecting a nearest self-encoder model, namely a model with the smallest test error, by adopting a cross validation method of 80-20, wherein 1 hidden layer is arranged, and the loss function is as follows:
