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...

Purpose: This study aims to explore the challenges experienced by managers in adopting competency modeling (CM) and recommends an approach to overcome these challenges in promoting competency-based intellectual capital in organizations. Design/methodology/approach: Using in-depth interviews...
