Researchers have proposed a permutation-invariant neural architecture for indoor localization using RSSI scans from Wi-Fi access points.
The model processes each scan as an unordered set of (BSSID, RSSI) pairs, mapping BSSIDs to learned embeddings and incorporating signal strength.
Utilizing a Set Transformer, the model deals with variable-length, sparse inputs and learns attention-based representations over access point relationships.
Experimental results on a campus dataset show that the proposed model accurately captures spatial structure and performs competitively, particularly excelling in scenarios involving multiple buildings and floors.
