This paper proposed a novel nonparametric modelbased model predictive control approach for the regulation ofheart rate during treadmill exercise. As the model structureof human cardiovascular system is often hard to determine,nonparametric modelling is a more realistic manner to describecomplex...

Noninvasive portable sensors are becoming popular in biomedical engineering practice due to its ease of use. This paper investigates the estimation of human oxygen uptake (VO2) of treadmill exercises by using multiple portable sensors (wireless heart rate sensor and triaxial accelerometers). For...

We consider the situation of two ordered categorical variables and a binary outcome variable, where one or both of the categorical variables may have missing values. The goal is to estimate the probability of response of the outcome variable for each cell of the contingency table of categorical...
