Abstract
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for analyzing heart rate data for a fitness or health device. In some example embodiments, there may be provided an apparatus that includes at least one processor and at least one memory including program code which when executed configures the apparatus to at least: receive, from at least one heart rate sensor, a heart rate data set collected from a subject over at least one session; filter the heart rate data set to remove at least one heart rate value failing to satisfy a predetermined duration threshold; determine a minimum heart rate value from the filtered heart rate data; and provide the determined minimum heart rate. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
Claims17
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including program code which when executed configures the apparatus to at least:
- receive, from at least one heart rate sensor, a heart rate data set collected from a subject over at least one session;
- filter the heart rate data set to remove at least one heart rate value failing to satisfy a predetermined time duration threshold defining one or more patches of values within the heart rate data set;
- generate, from the filtered heart rate data set, a histogram;
- adapt a percentile range of the histogram to further filter the filtered heart rate data set included in the generated histogram to generate the one or more patches of values within the heart rate data set that satisfy the predetermined time duration threshold;
- determine, for the one or more patches, one or more respective minimum heart rate values;
- determine, based on the one or more respective minimum heart rate values, one or more respective candidate minimum heart rates;
- determine, based on the determined one ore more respective candidate minimum heart rate, a final minimum heart rate;
- and
- provide the final minimum heart rate.
A method comprising
- receiving, from at least one heart rate sensor, a heart rate data set collected from a subject over at least one session;
- filtering the heart rate data set to remove at least one heart rate value failing to satisfy a predetermined time duration threshold defining one or more patch of values within the heart rate data set;
- generating, from the filtered heart rate data set, a histogram;
- adapting a percentile range of the histogram to further filter the filtered heart rate data set included in the generated histogram to generate the one or more patches of values within the heart rate data set that satisfy the predetermined time duration threshold;
- determining, for the one or more patches, one or more respective minimum heart rate values;
- determining, based on the one or more respective minimum heart rate values, one or more respective candidate minimum heart rates;
- determining, based on the determined one or more respective candidate minimum heart rate, a final minimum heart rate;
- and
- providing the final minimum heart rate.
