Reader beware, this is a nerd post! One of the most common types of machine learning is used to detect outliers in a dataset. Today we introduced several “anomaly detection” algorithms into the beta that assess your activities, power thresholds and segment efforts. Why do we do
Support for Runners
Admittedly, we’ve started out with a focus on cycling with power. We attempted to mix in run pace thresholds using the same time duration concept [1, 5, 20, 60] as we do for heart rate and power. We learned
Threshold Feature Analysis
Last week we introduced our first performance centric feature in the app called Power Factors. It analyzes the peak thresholds over the last 8 weeks to identify what variables are having the most positive and negative impact on your results. We
Ensemble Learning v1
After opening the beta to ~100 athletes we started to see some issues with the bike classifier failing to handle certain situations. For example, many of the higher end athletes have several bikes equipped with power with surprisingly similar riding characteristics. We
Withings Body Cardio Scale
One of the first IoT devices I purchased was this scale. I needed a new scale and a neighbor was happy with his earlier generation Withings device. What I like most about it is it’s fully integrated with Apple Health and
Running Power with Stryd
Welcome to the first of many posts on sensors we advocate for getting the most out of strive.ai! Power has long been the primary training tool for cyclists. The ability to baseline your power and measure intensity against that baseline
The Ultimate NorCal Brewery Map
Someone in my cycling club sent this to our group email today. Fantastic resource that features a Graphical Map, a List of Breweries and even wait for it…Brewery Trails! You can find it at NorCal Brewery Map!
Vision
Just a quick note to briefly explain the vision we have at strive.ai. In short, I believe there is tremendous potential sitting in the data applications like Strava, Training Peaks and Garmin possess. Living in the Bay Area and working in
Initial Beta
Our first post on strive.ai! We’ve been focused on the engineering and data science of this application for the past 6 months and I’m excited to see it launched to a broader beta to test the features and infrastructure at a
