IoT ML Driven Holistic Health Monitoring and Fitness Assessment Empowering Proactive Wellbeing Management
Sachin Mishra, Anurag Singh · 2024
In recent years, significant advancements in the area of non-invasive and wearable technology have paved the way for widespread applications of personalized and remote health monitoring. Health monitoring enables proactive management of one's well-being, and enhances overall health outcomes. With the advent of such technologies there are lots of platforms developed. But such platforms are not successful in providing the followings: 1) the ability to monitor all major health vitals in one unified application, & 2) the provision of a holistic health score derived from these non-invasive vitals for fitness measurement. In response, this paper presents a novel solution featuring: 1) An IoT-ML enabled platform for self-monitoring of important health vitals, and 2) A fitness assessment score derived through ML algorithm using the health vitals of a person. By integrating data on various health parameters including heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and sleep patterns, advanced machine learning models are developed to analyze this data and predict the fitness score that accurately reflects an individual's overall health and fitness level. The performance of the proposed estimation model is evaluated using R2 and mean square error (MSE) and the best value is achieved using the XGBoost regressor of values 0.967 and 0.0033. This solution empowers individuals to take control of their well-being and improve their overall quality of life. Overall, the integration of non-invasive methods and IoT sensors for health vitals monitoring and fitness assessment presents a novel approach with significant potential to revolutionize health care. By empowering individuals with real-time insights and a comprehensive fitness score, this solution facilitates informed decision-making and enables individuals to proactively manage their health and well-being, ultimately enhancing their overall quality of life.
