We formulate localization as a classification task. In particular, we model the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of passive tags using multivariate Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and use the Expectation Maximization (EM) to learn the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. Several other learning-based probabilistic approaches are also explored in the localization problem. To track a moving subject, we propose GMM based Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) based HMM approaches. We conduct extensive experiments in a testbed formed by passive RFID tags, and the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of our approach.",
