The pedestrian stride-length estimation is a crucial piece of personal behavior data for many smartphone applications, such as health monitoring and indoor location. The performance of the present stride-length algorithms is suitable for simple gaits and single scenes, but when applied to sophisticated gaits or heterogeneous devices, their inaccuracy varies dramatically. This paper proposes an efficient learning-based stride-length estimation model using a smartphone to obtain the correct stride length. The model uses adaptive learning to extract different elements for changing and recognition tasks, including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) modules. The direct fusion method maps the eigenvectors to the appropriate stride length after combining the features from the learning modules. We presented an online learning module to update the model to increase the SLE model's generalization. Extensive experiments are conducted with heterogeneous devices or users, various gaits, and switched scenarios. The results confirm that the proposed method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods and achieves an average 4.26% estimation error rate in various environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
