We present a survey of smartphone-based Transport Mode Detection (TMD). We categorize TMD solutions into local and
remote; the first ones are addressed in this article. A local approach performs the following steps in the smartphone (and not
in some faraway cloud servers): 1) data collection or sensing, 2) preprocessing, 3) feature extraction, and 4) classification
(with a previous training phase). A local TMD approach outperforms a remote approach due to less delay, improved
privacy, no need for Internet connection, better or equal accuracy and smaller data size. Therefore, we present local TMD
solutions taking into account the above mentioned four steps and analyze them according to the most relevant requirements:
accuracy, delay, resources consumption and generalization. To achieve the highest accuracy (100%), studies used a different
combination of sensors, features and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. The results suggest that accelerometer and GPS
(Global Position System) are the most useful sensors for data collection. Discriminative ML algorithms, such as random
forest, outperform the other algorithms for classification. Some solutions improved the delay of the proposed system by
using a small window size and a local approach. A few studies could improve battery usage of their system by utilizing low
battery-consuming sensors (e.g., accelerometer) and low sampling rate (e.g., 10Hz). CPU usage is primarily dependent on
data collection, while memory usage is related to the features and complexity of the ML algorithm. Finally, the generalization
requirement is met in studies that consider user, location and position independency into account.

Background: Studies have indicated that shift work, in particular night work, is associated with chronic musculoskeletal pain but the mechanisms are unclear. It has been suggested that sleep disturbance, a common complaint among shift and night workers, may induce low-grade inflammation as well as heightened pain sensitivity.
Aims: Firstly, this study was aimed to examine the cross-sectional associations between shift work, C-reactive protein (CRP) level and chronic musculoskeletal pain, and secondly, to analyse CRP as a mediator between shift work and chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Methods: The study included 23 223 vocationally active women and men who participated in the HUNT4 Survey of the Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT). Information was collected by questionnaires, interviews, biological samples and clinical examination.
Results: Regression analyses adjusted for sex, age and education revealed significant associations between shift work and odds of any chronic musculoskeletal pain (odd ratio [OR] 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-1.19), between shift work and CRP level (OR 1.09, 95% CI 1.03-1.16) and between CRP level 3.00-10 mg/L and any chronic musculoskeletal pain (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.27-1.51). Shift work and CRP were also associated with number of chronic pain sites. Mediation analysis indicated that shift work was indirectly associated with any chronic musculoskeletal pain through CRP (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.06).
Conclusions: The results support the hypothesis that shift work is associated with chronic musculoskeletal pain, and that systemic inflammation may be a biological mechanism linking shift work to chronic pain.

FogTMDetector - Fog Based Transport Mode Detection using Smartphones.
Vis sammendrag
A user’s transport mode (e.g., walk, car, etc.) can
be detected by using a smartphone. Such devices exist in a great
number with enough computation power and sensors to run a
classifier (i.e., for transport mode detection). Using a smartphone
in a fog environment ensures low latency, high generalization,
high accuracy, and low battery consumption. We propose a fog-
based real-time (at human time scale) transport mode detection,
called FogTMDetector; it consists of a Random Forest classifier
trained with magnetometer, accelerometer, and GPS data. The
overall accuracy achieved by our system is 93% when detecting
8 different modes (i.e., stationary, walk, bicycle, car, bus, train,
tram, and subway). We compared FogTMDetector with another
recent system (called EdgeTrans). The comparison results suggest
that our solution achieves 10% higher motorized accuracy (i.e.,
94.4%) with more fine-grained motorized transport modes (i.e.,
subway, tram, etc.) thanks to the magnetometer sensor readings.
FogTMDetector uses a low sampling rate (1Hz) for logging
accelerometer and magnetometer and (every 10 seconds) for
GPS to ensure low battery consumption. FogTMDetector is
also generalizable as it is robust against variation of users and
smartphone positions.
