The invention belongs to the technical field of physique anthropology methods, and particularly relates to a resting
metabolic rate measuring method based on a digital anthropometric
phenotype. The method comprises the following steps that the
human body resting
metabolism rate serves as a dependent variable,
digital human body measurement
phenotype data serves as an independent variable, a
machine learning model is constructed, the deviation between a predicted value and a true value is minimized through model training and parameter iteration adjustment, and finally an accurate resting
metabolism rate prediction model is constructed. And based on a
machine learning model obtained by training a large number of real data samples, calculating the resting
metabolism rate by taking the
digital human body measurement data as an input value. According to the method, extra operations such as inspiration and expiration, wearing of a
breathing gas analyzer and the like are not needed, and compared with an existing resting metabolism rate prediction formula, the method has higher prediction precision, can fully utilize a
digital human body measurement
phenotype, is simpler and more convenient to operate and lower in cost, and has remarkable practical value.
