Outline of Final Research Achievements

We recorded free-living activities of eleven infants, aged 16-35 months, while wearing accelerometers. Based on these data, we developed and compared models that classify the data into nine activity types using machine learning and deep learning techniques. The results showed that the prediction accuracy was improved by adding gyroscope data, lag window data, and data from hip and wrist worn accelerometer. We also showed the possibility of further improvement in accuracy by using deep learning methods.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では,1~2歳児の身体活動を従来の方法よりも高い精度で判別できるモデルを開発することができた.また,さらにモデルの精度を向上させる可能性のある方法も見えてきた.これらの研究成果は,今後,歩き始めの子どもの身体活動を定量化することを可能にし,この年代の身体活動が,健康や発達に与える影響を明らかにするために役立つ.世界的には歩き始めの子どもの身体活動ガイドラインが策定されている一方で,日本ではそのようなガイドラインはない.1~2歳児の身体活動データが蓄積できれば,日本の身体活動ガイドラインの策定にも貢献することが期待される.
