Other Projects

 

Novel Analytic Techniques to Assess Physical Activity

The major goals of this project are to develop and validate new data processing methods for interpretation of accelerometer based physical activity measurement.

Funded by RO1 CA121005 (Freedson, PI) NIH

 

Novel Analytic Techniques to Assess Physical Activity (Supplement)

This is a Research Supplement to Promote Diversity in Health Related Research award for Sofiya Alhassan who is developing neural network system to identify physical activities and estimate activity energy expenditure in children.  This award is a supplement to the RO1, P. Freedson (PI) (CA121005).

Funded by 3RO1CA121005-03S1 (Freedson, PI) NIH

 

A New Instrument to Comprehensively Assess Sedentary Behavior

The major goal of this project is to develop and validate either a single or age group specific self-report instrument that assesses sedentary behavior in adolescents and adults.

Sub-contract for RO1DK080126-02 (Fowke, PI - Vanderbilt University)

 

Advancing Physical Activity Measurement Using Pattern Recognition Techniques

The major goal of this project is to apply pattern recognition techniques to accelerometer output to examine its sensitivity to assessing change in physical activity and to determine if  accelerometer measured physical activity level, assessed with pattern recognition techniques outside of purposeful training explains differences in responsiveness to training.
