Assignee: VERILY LIFE SCIENCES LLC
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  A | IPC A  G

Claim 11:
12. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the operations further includes:
determining two or more characteristics of additional acceleration data obtained for another observation window;
determining, by the decision tree algorithm, a probability respectively for the one or more activities determined to be occurring within the another observation window based on the two or more characteristics of the additional acceleration data;
determining, among the one or more activities determined to be occurring within the another observation window and by the decision tree algorithm, an activity with the greatest probability of occurring within the another observation window based on the probability respectively determined for the one or more activities, wherein the determining the activity with the greatest probability of occurring includes determining that the activity with the greatest probability of occurring is a type of activity not associated with the consecutive steps;
in response to determining that the activity with the greatest probability of occurring is the type of activity not associated with the consecutive steps, assigning a second class to the observation window; and
incrementing a count of the second class in a database and stopping processing of the additional acceleration data for the another observation window without determining a step count for the another observation window.
