Abstract

Deriving a person’s energy expenditure accurately forms the foundation for tracking physical activity levels across many health and lifestyle monitoring tasks. In this work, we present a method for estimating calorific expenditure from combined visual and accelerometer sensors by way of an RGB-Depth...
