Temporal convolutional networks predict dynamic oxygen uptake response from wearable sensors across exercise intensities

Abstract Oxygen consumption ( $$\dot{\,{{\mbox{V}}}}{{{\mbox{O}}}}_{2}$$ V ̇ O 2 ) provides established clinical and physiological indicators of cardiorespiratory function and exercise capacity. However, $$\dot{\,{{\mbox{V}}}}{{{\mbox{O}}}}_{2}$$ V ̇ O 2 monitoring is largely limited to specialized...
