Estimating intra- and inter-subject oxygen consumption in outdoor human gait using multiple neural network approaches.

ABSTRACT: Oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]) is an important measure for exercise test, such as walking and running, that can be measured outdoors using portable spirometers or metabolic analyzers. However, these devices are not feasible for regular use by consumers as they intervene with the user's physical integrity, and are expensive and difficult to operate. To circumvent these drawbacks, indirect estimation of [Formula: see text] using neural networks combined with motion features and heart rate measurements collected with consumer-grade sensors has been shown to yield reasonably accurate [Formula: see text] for intra-subject estimation. However, estimating [Formula: see text] with neural networks trained with data from other individuals than the user, known as inter-subject estimation, r
