Abstract. In the present study, we propose three new energy expenditure (EE)
methods and evaluate their accuracy against state-of-the-art EE estimation
commercialized devices. To this end, we used several sensors on 8 subjects to
simultaneously record acceleration forces from wrist-located sensors and bio-
potentials estimated from chest-located ECG devices. These subjects followed a
protocol that included a wide range of intensities in a given set of activities,
ranging from sedentary to vigorous. The results of the proposed human EE
models were compared to indirect calorimetry EE estimated values (kcal/kg/h).
The speed-based, heart rate-based and hybrid-based models are characterized
by an RMSE of 1.22 ± 0.34 kcal/min, 1.53 ± 0.48 kcal/min and 1.03 ± 0.35
kcal/min, respectively. Based on the presented results, the proposed models
provide a significant improvement over the state-of-the-art.
1 Introduction
2 Method
The following section describes the database and the protocol used in this study. It
also describes the different proposed human speed and EE models. Finally, it contains
the evaluation procedure and the statistical tools used to quantify the performance of
the proposed models and to compare them against commercialized EE monitors.
More precisely, it consisted in three 3-minute phases of resting (lying down, standing
up and sitting) and 3-minute walking/running phases (from 0.5 m/s to exhaustion;
with steps of 0.5 m/s).
In order to validate both the human EE models and their human walking/running
speed sub-models, gold standard measurements were simultaneously recorded,
namely the speed values labelled obtained from a treadmill (Technogym’s
Excite® Med), the HR values labelled HR obtained from an ambulatory ECG moni-
toring device, and the EE values labeled PMETAMAX obtained from a Cortex’s
METAMAX® 3B device (accuracy of ±2.1% MET or kcal/kg/h) using an embedded
indirect calorimetry approach. An Actigraph’s GT1M® device is also measuring the
EE simultaneously.
Before recording each subject, the oxygen (O2), carbon dioxide (CO2) analyzers
and the atmospheric pressure and air volume sensors were calibrated using a medical
grade calibration gas with known concentrations and known total volume. The air of
the room was also taken into account in the indirect calorimetry computation.
where is the speed in km/h, is the weight in kg and is the height in cm.
where SPE AR is the probability of SPE AR producing a better estimate than HEET
and HEET is the probability of HEET providing a better estimate than SPE AR .
Note that the relation SPE AR 1 HEET always holds. These quality indicators
are defined as
RMSESPE AR
SPE AR 1 HR RMSE (4)
HEET RMSESPE2AR
and
H SPE2AR . (6)
Statistical Analysis. In order to deal with the limited number of subjects (N=8) in the
database, a leave-one-out cross validation procedure is applied to the entire database
in order to fit the EE models and to evaluate their respective performance with respect
to the ground truth values (METAMAX® 3B values). That is, the parameters of each
model are estimated using N-1 subjects and validated against the remaining one, and
this procedure is iterated for each subject. The two quality indicators SPE2AR and
2
HEET are obtained in the same manner. Concerning SPE AR, the coefficient of
determination ( distribution equals 0.96 0.02 , whereas for HEET and
QI2Hybrid models, the distributions equal 0.92 0.05 and 0.96 0.02.
For the evaluation of the performance over the entire database of the proposed
models, three performance indicators are defined: the distribution of the absolute
and relative errors and the distribution of the RMSE. These distributions are characte-
rized by their mean µ and standard deviation σ. In order to compare our results with
other studies, MET values are converted into kcal/min. Table 2 defines these three
performance indicators.
Here, METAMAX is the total energy measured by METAMAX® 3B, which equals
METAMAX . is the total energy estimated by the proposed models, which
equals . RMSE provides insight on the instantaneous error, while absolute
and relative energy errors show how the errors accumulate over time. When these errors
are accumulated over the entire recording sessions, they are referred as total EE errors.
3 Results
Fig.1 displays an examp ple of the evolution of EE during the execution of the dif-
ferent tasks included in the experimental protocol. The EE evolution of each modeel is
compared to the ground truth EE values measured by METAMAX® 3B. Panels A and
B represent the estimated EE values from SPE2AR, HEET and QI2Hybrid moddels,
respectively. Resting (lyingg down, standing and sitting postures), walking and runnning
episodes are alternately dissplayed in gray and white areas. In this case, the subjject
starts to run at the 21:50.6 minute
m which is 50.6 sec after starting the 2 m/s step.

Fig 2 displays the abso olute error distribution of QI2Hybrid with respect to the
activity class for the same subject
s (see Fig. 1 B). The resting-, walking- and runniing-
specific error distributions are characterized by mean and standard deviation vallues
of -0.20 ± 0.41 kcal/min, 0.17 ± 0.77 kcal/min and -0.03 ± 0.91 kcal/min, respectiive-
ly. The first two distribu utions are bimodal and significantly biased. Moreovver,
the error distribution durinng running is characterized by unbiased values (p<0.005).

A GARLAND.
In one aspiring carillon
God’s Sabbath-bells a-rhyme,
From country-side to country-side
Have set the world a-chime.
Like jewels dropped from heaven,
Ere time or death were known,
The arbutus is blooming,
Where never dust is blown,
For her—the Pilgrim Mother,—
Steadfast and halo-spanned,
Where, still, like constellations burn,
Her footsteps in the sand.
THE UMPAME MUSKETEERS.
O barefoot days, the bickering rains have deluged all the years,
But still the wide blue wonder calls to me,
And some day I shall answer where the waves run wild,
Once more a happy child.

NEW ENGLAND.
New England—Daughter of the Sun—
A laurel on your brow,
The thrill of springtime in your heart,
Yea, we are lovers now,
And we shall wind a lover’s horn
High on the hills of space,
To echo far beyond the stars;
I shall behold your face,
With laughing eyes, when time is not;
Your lifting vistas then,
As now, will haunt and wake in me
A chording great amen.
HILLS O’ MY HEART.
The bloom of night lay on the hills,
Lay on the hills o’ my heart,
When a white star came as on wings of light,
And my soul grew warm,
And my soul grew bright,
With a wild-sweet wonder of yesterday,
Mid a valley green, but it would not stay,
For the bloom of night lay on the hills,
Lay on the hills o’ my heart.
