Predictive analytics method and system for positively adjusting fitness and/or well-being conditioning

Abstract

A system and method of predictive analytics that assesses multiple causal factors to a target outcome, determines the relationship and significance of those causal factors to the target outcome, and permits adjustment of a conditioning, wellness and / or athletic training program to more effectively approach or achieve the target outcome. Artificial intelligence tools are disclosed for aiding in determining the relationship and significance of the causal factors and for improving accuracy and predictive success. Causal factors may be physiological or non-physiological, and the system and method of the present invention may be applied to a team or individual.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0014]Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method and system that uses artificial intelligence or “predictive analytics” to positively adjusting fitness and / or well-being conditioning.

[0015]It is also an object of the present invention to provide a user or coach with mechanisms to readily assess and the many variable impacting a conditioning goal, how those variable interrelate and / or how modification of a given variable might impact a target outcome or another variable.

Problems solved by technology

Some problems in AI (in reasoning, planning, learning, perception and robotics) require the agent to operate with incomplete or uncertain information.

A problem in current fitness and well-being conditioning is that a large number of contributors or variables may influence a target outcome, both directly and indirectly.

Furthermore, it is unknown, or difficult to ascertain, the significance of variables and their relationship to one another.

In addition, the prior art is disadvantageous in not presenting the functional state assessment parameters that are most significant to fitness and well-being conditioning and, in turn, the external contributors that are most significant in influencing the functional state assessment parameters.

Without presentation of these variables a coach or user is limited in control and optimization of conditioning.
