Indoor localization systems usually consist of transceiver with fixed positions, which are called beacons. These beacons act as landmarks for localizing objects that need to be positioned. One can easily see that the positions of beacons have a great impact on the performance of the localization system. The problem of beacon placement optimization is to optimize the positions of beacons in order to maximize the performance of the localization system.
The goal is to build a framework for beacon placement optimization for localization systems based on machine learning. The expected outcome is a procedure to place beacons optimally and apply it to construct and design real-world localization systems. Applying artificial intelligence for beacon placement is at its early stage and has not been fully investigated.
