This article presents a method to automatically detect and classify climbing activities using inertial measurement units (IMUs) attached to the wrists, feet and pelvis of the climber. The IMUs record limb acceleration and angular velocity. Detection requires a learning phase with manual annotation to construct the statistical models used in the cusum algorithm. Full-body activity is then classified based on the detection of each IMU.

To answer the existence of optimal swimmer learning/teaching strategies, this work introduces a two-level clustering in order to analyze temporal dynamics of motor learning in breaststroke swimming. Each level have been performed through Sparse Fisher-EM, a unsupervised framework which can be applied efficiently on large and correlated datasets. The induced sparsity selects key points of the coordination phase without any prior knowledge.
