With the steady growth of sensing technology and wearable devices, sensor-based human activity recognition has become essential in widespread applications, such as healthcare monitoring and fitness tracking, where accurate and real-time systems are required. To achieve real-time response, recent studies have focused on lightweight neural network models.Specifically, they designed the network architectures by restricting the number of layers shallowly or connections of each layer.However, these approaches suffer from limited accuracy because the classifier only uses the features at the last layer.In this study, we propose a cheap all-layer aggregation network, CALANet, for accuracy improvement while maintaining the efficiency of existing real-time HAR models.Specifically, CALANet allows the classifier to aggregate the features for all layers, resulting in a performance gain.In addition, this work proves that the theoretical computation cost of CALANet is equivalent to that of conventional networks. Evaluated on seven publicly available datasets, CALANet outperformed existing methods, achieving state-of-the-art performance.
