A sensitivity analysis will also estimate the effects of different methods of BSA estimation, body size estimation (height, BSA, BSA0.5), and normalization on the primary outcome and on secondary outcomes where appropriate.
The accepted papers re?ect the state of the art in the ?eld and cover various topicsrelatedto humanmotiontrackingandanalysis.Thepapersinthisvolume have been classi ed into three categories based on the topics they cover: human motion capture and pose estimation, body and limb tracking and segmentation, and activity recognition.
Estimation of body mass is possible but requires back-calculation from bone dimensions [28], meaning that estimated body masses used in scaling comparisons would indirectly represent bone dimensions.
This technique enables the estimation of body shape variation, not only within the body shape space that was learned statistically, but also outside of the body shape space, while maintaining body shapes that stay in the human shape space.
It is possible that the algorithms used for the estimation of body composition by DXA produce a larger error at very low levels of body fat.
