Estimating Oxygen Uptake During Nonsteady-State Activities and Transitions Using Wearable Sensors

In this paper, we present a method to estimate oxygen uptake ( VO2) during daily life activities and transitions between them. First, we automatically locate transitions between activities and periods of nonsteady-state VO2. Subsequently, we propose and compare activity-specific linear functions to model steady-state activities and transition-specific nonlinear functions to model nonsteady-state activities and transitions. We evaluate our...
