TECHNIQUES FOR JOINTLY CALIBRATING LOAD AND AEROBIC CAPACITY
First Claim
1. A method for jointly calibrating both a load of exercise and a user'"'"'s aerobic capacity, the method comprising:
- retrieving, by a processor circuit of a device from a memory of the device, a prior probability distribution of the load of exercise;
retrieving, by the processor circuit from the memory, a prior probability distribution of the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity;
determining, by the processor circuit, a joint prior probability of the load of exercise and the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity based on the prior probability distribution of the load of exercise and the prior probability distribution of the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity;
measuring, by one or more motion sensors of the device, data indicative of a time-stamped work rate;
measuring, by one or more heart rate sensors of the device, a time-stamped heart rate;
determining, by the processor circuit, a joint likelihood of the load of exercise and the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity based on the measured time-stamped work rate and the measured time-stamped heart rate;
combining, by the processor circuit, the joint prior probability and the joint likelihood to produce a joint posterior probability; and
outputting, by the processor circuit, a calorie calculation based on the joint posterior probability.

Abstract
A relationship relating a load of exercise and a user'"'"'s aerobic capacity may be determined as follows. A processor circuit of a device may retrieve, from a memory, a prior probability distribution of the load of exercise and a prior probability distribution of the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity. The processor circuit may compute a joint prior probability of the load of exercise and the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity. The processor circuit may compute a joint likelihood of the load of exercise and the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity based on data indicative of a measured time-stamped work rate and a measured time-stamped heart rate. The processor circuit may combine the joint prior probability and the joint likelihood to produce a joint posterior probability. The processor circuit may use the joint posterior probability to determine a relationship relating the load of exercise and the user'"'"'s aerobic capacity and output a calorie calculation.
