Understanding activity segmentation for multi-sport competitions

Despite the advances in activity detection, their applications in the sports domain are limited. Athletic environments are fast and challenging. Athletes often perform more than one activity in a single workout, especially if they are training for a multi-sport competition, such as a triathlon. These competitions require an athlete to transition from one activity to another quickly. Current logging applications require the user to select the activity they are about to perform, and start and stop the timer for each activity. This could increase the athlete's transition time, and it would not give the athlete an estimate of how much time they spent in transition between the activities.
