用智能手表惯性数据估算每口食物重量,精度达3.99克。

Estimation of Food Intake Quantity Using Inertial Signals from Smartwatches

  • 结合进食动作时长与惯性信号统计特征,用支持向量回归建模。
  • 在留一被试交叉验证下,平均每口误差3.99克,优于基线17.41%。
  • 仅靠普通手表传感器即可实现,适合长期饮食监测应用。

准确监测进食行为对管理肥胖和暴食症等进食障碍至关重要。现有方法依赖多种或专用传感器,严重影响用户依从性及数据质量和连续性。本文提出一种新方法,仅使用商用智能手表的惯性数据估计每口食物重量。我们公开了一个包含十名参与者的数据集,记录了半控制条件下每口进食的开始/结束时间及对应重量(通过智能秤获取),并手动标注。该方法提取如餐具取食时间等行为特征,结合惯性信号统计特征,输入支持向量回归模型进行预测。在留一被试交叉验证下,平均绝对误差(MAE)为每口3.99克。为评估性能,引入改进度指标,相较基线模型,本方法提升17.41%,而适配的先进方法反而下降28.89%。结果表明,仅凭商用智能手表惯性传感器即可实现有意义的咬重估计,为未来可及、非侵入式饮食监测系统奠定基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Accurate monitoring of eating behavior is crucial for managing obesity and eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa. At the same time, existing methods rely on multiple and/or specialized sensors, greatly harming adherence and ultimately, the quality and continuity of data. This paper introduces a novel approach for estimating the weight of a bite, from a commercial smartwatch. Our publicly-available dataset contains smartwatch inertial data from ten participants, with manually annotated start and end times of each bite along with their corresponding weights from a smart scale, under semi-controlled conditions. The proposed method combines extracted behavioral features such as the time required to load the utensil with food, with statistical features of inertial signals, that serve as input to a Support Vector Regression model to estimate bite weights. Under a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation scheme, our approach achieves a mean absolute error (MAE) of 3.99 grams per bite. To contextualize this performance, we introduce the improvement metric, that measures the relative MAE difference compared to a baseline model. Our method demonstrates a 17.41% improvement, while the adapted state-of-the art method shows a -28.89% performance against that same baseline. The results presented in this work establish the feasibility of extracting meaningful bite weight estimates from commercial smartwatch inertial sensors alone, laying the groundwork for future accessible, non-invasive dietary monitoring systems.
