Modeling Heart Rate Response to Exercise with Wearable Data
This paper was accepted at the workshop “Learning from Time Series for Health” at NeurIPS 2022. Heart rate (HR) dynamics in response to workout intensity and duration measure key aspects of an individual’s fitness and cardiorespiratory health. Models of exercise physiology have been used to characterize cardiorespiratory fitness in well-controlled laboratory settings, but face additional challenges when applied to wearables in noisy, real-world settings. Here, we introduce a hybrid machine learning model that combines a physiological model of HR and demand during exercise with neural network…
Detecting delirium isn’t easy, but it can have a big payoff: speeding essential care to patients, leading to quicker and surer recovery. Improved detection also reduces the need for long-term skilled care, enhancing the quality of life for patients while decreasing a major financial burden. In the U.S., caring for…
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a practical and noninvasive measure of autonomic nervous system activity, which plays an essential role in cardiovascular health. However, using HRV to assess physiology status is challenging. Even in clinical settings, HRV is sensitive to acute stressors such as physical activity, mental stress, hydration, alcohol,…
*=Equal Contributors Preserving training dynamics across batch sizes is an important tool for practical machine learning as it enables the trade-off between batch size and wall-clock time. This trade-off is typically enabled by a scaling rule; for example, in stochastic gradient descent, one should scale the learning rate linearly with…
