Abstract
A computerized method for determining maximal oxygen uptake for a user with incomplete data with data collected from a plurality of other users with complete data. The maximal oxygen uptake can be determined by computing similarity metrics between an incomplete data set of self-reported and measured data and complete user data sets, and using a weighted sum of the similarity metrics. The results of the maximal oxygen update calculation can be cross-validated with known user data sets.
Claims24
A computerized method for determining maximal oxygen uptake for a user with incomplete data with data collected from a plurality of other users with complete data, the method comprising:
- (a) electronically receiving, from at least one user device corresponding to at least one of the complete data users, a plurality of data comprising:
- a combination of self-reported and measured data sufficient to perform a maximal oxygen uptake calculation for the at least one complete data user, and
- a maximal oxygen uptake corresponding to the at least one complete data user maximal oxygen uptake calculation;
- (b) electronically receiving, from a user device corresponding to the incomplete data user, incomplete user data including a subset of the combination of self-reported and measured data received from the at least one complete data user device, the subset of data insufficient to perform a maximal oxygen uptake calculation equivalent to the maximal oxygen uptake calculation corresponding to the at least one complete data user;
- (c) determining, using a computing device, at least one similarity metric between the incomplete data user combination of self-reported and measured data and the at least one complete data user combination of self-reported and measured data, the at least one similarity metric based on types of data in common between the incomplete data user and the at least one complete user;
- and
- (d) estimating, using the computing device, the maximum oxygen uptake of the incomplete data user using a weighted sum of the at least one similarity metric.
A system configured to determine maximal oxygen uptake for a user with incomplete data with data collected from a plurality of other users with complete data, the system comprising:
- (a) a data storage system configured to electronically receive from at least one user device corresponding to at least one of the complete data users, a plurality of data comprising:
- a combination of self-reported and measured data sufficient to perform a maximal oxygen uptake calculation for the at least one complete data user, and
- a maximal oxygen uptake corresponding to the at least one complete data user maximal oxygen uptake calculation;
- (b) the data storage system further configured to electronically receive, from a user device corresponding to the incomplete data user, incomplete user data including a subset of the combination of self-reported and measured data received from the at least one complete data user device, the subset of data insufficient to perform a maximal oxygen uptake calculation equivalent to the maximal oxygen uptake calculation corresponding to the at least one complete data user;
- (c) a data analysis subsystem configured to determine at least one similarity metric between the incomplete data user combination of self-reported and measured data and the at least one complete data user combination of self-reported and measured data, the at least one similarity metric based on types of data in common between the incomplete data user and the at least one complete user;
- and
- (d) the data analysis subsystem further configured to estimate the maximum oxygen uptake of the incomplete data user using a weighted sum of the at least one similarity metric.
