1 PERSONAL FITTING PROCEDURE FOR CYCLE ERGOMETER WORKLOAD CONTROL BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS T. Kiryu, K. Shibai, Y. Hayashi 2, and K. Tanaka 2 Graduated School of Science and Technology, Niigata University, 85 Ikarashi-2, Niigata 95-28, Japan 2 Institute of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Tsukuba, -- Tennodai, Tsukuba , Japan Abstract-The Internet technology was introduced to provide on-demand support for fitting the cycle ergometer workload personally depending on each individual s physical work capacity. It was useful to combine the ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) with objective physiological indices during the exercise. We estimated the RPE from objective indices (i.e., muscular fatigue-related indices and the heart rate), using a feed-forward type artificial neural network. Interpreting the estimation errors was useful to design an appropriate workload for an individual elderly person. Keywords - cycle ergometer, heart rate, muscle activity, ratings of perceived exertion, artificial neural network PERSONAL FITTING PROCEDURE FOR CYCLE ERGOMETER WORKLOAD CONTROL BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS T.

18 Conclusions. The fuzzy rules and membership functions were designed based on the individual s physical work capacity. 2. Using a feed-forward type artificial neural network, we estimated the RPE (i.e., a subjective index) from the HR and muscular fatigue, and studied the balance between the objective and subjective representations of fatigue. 3. The gap was suitable to determine the appropriate levels and the timing of temporally inserting workloads in a basic workload variation.

19 Conclusions (continued) Personally Fitting Procedure. Evaluation of basic data under progressively increasing workload. 2. Continuously changing the intensity and timing of temporary increasing workloads. 3. Comparison between subjective index (RPE) and objective indices by ANN. - small error between RPE and estimated RPE. - RPE greater than 3 and no progression of muscular fatigue.
