• Abstract: Cardiorespiratory fitness is an established predictor of metabolic disease and mortality. Fitness is directly measured as maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), or indirectly assessed using heart rate response to a standard exercise test. However, such testing is costly and burdensome, limiting its utility and scalability. Fitness can also be approximated using resting heart rate and self-reported exercise habits but with lower accuracy. Modern wearables capture dynamic heart rate data which, in combination with machine learning models, could improve fitness prediction. In this work, we analyze movement and heart rate signals from wearable sensors in free-living conditions from 11,059 participants who also underwent a standard exercise test, along with a longitudinal repeat cohort of 2,675 participants. We design algorithms and models that convert raw sensor data into cardio-respiratory fitness estimates, and validate these estimates' ability to capture fitness profiles in a longitudinal cohort over time while subjects engaged in real-world (non-exercise) behaviour. Additionally, we validate our methods with a third external cohort of 181 participants who underwent maximal VO2max testing, which is considered the gold standard measurement because it requires reaching one's maximum heart rate and exhaustion level. Our results show that the developed models yield a high correlation (r = 0.82, 95CI 0.80-0.83), when compared to the ground truth in a holdout sample. These models outperform conventional non-exercise fitness models and traditional bio-markers using measurements of normal daily living without the need for a specific exercise test. Additionally, we show the adaptability and applicability of this approach for detecting fitness change over time in the longitudinal subsample that repeated measurements after 7 years.

  We introduce a comprehensive framework -- what we believe to be the first capable of predicting instantaneous oxygen consumption trajectories exclusively from consumer-grade wearable data. Our approach employs two complementary physiological models: (1) accurate modeling of heart rate (HR) dynamics via a physiologically constrained ordinary differential equation (ODE) and neural Kalman filter, trained on over 3 million HR observations. Our method achieves mean absolute percentage errors of approximately 13%, effectively capturing rapid physiological transitions and steady-state conditions across diverse running intensities.

  Photoplethysmography and electrocardiography can potentially enable continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring. Yet accurate and robust machine learning (ML) models remains challenging due to variability in data quality and patient-specific factors. In this work, we investigate whether a model pre-trained on one modality can effectively be exploited to improve the accuracy of a different signal type. Our approach achieves near state-of-the-art accuracy for diastolic BP and surpasses by 1.5x the accuracy of prior works for systolic BP.
