SisFall: A Fall and Movement Dataset (Hugging Face Mirror)

Context & Purpose

This repository serves as a reliable, programmatically accessible mirror of the SisFall dataset for the global Human Activity Recognition (HAR) and Machine Learning community. It allows researchers and engineers to easily hydrate their environments via the Hugging Face API, ensuring complete code reproducibility in open-science workflows without the need for manual zip file transfers or relying on unstable institutional servers.

It is legally re-hosted here under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license to facilitate open-source machine learning pipelines. All credit for the rigorous data collection, hardware engineering, and initial validation belongs strictly to the original authors.

Ethical & Safety Notice (SOTIF)

Ethical Deployment Warning: While SisFall is an excellent foundational dataset for baseline Human Activity Recognition (HAR), researchers should be acutely aware of critical demographic imbalances before using this data to train models for safety-critical, edge-native wearable devices.

Specifically, the elderly cohort (subjects SE01-SE15) contains severe class imbalances regarding hard impacts and falls. Evaluating or training models without rigorously addressing this covariate shift may lead to dangerously uncalibrated confidence scores and Out-of-Distribution (OOD) failures when deployed on frail populations. Researchers are highly encouraged to evaluate models trained on this data through a strict Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF / ISO 21448) framework.
