Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
MyBehavior is a mobile application with a suggestion engine that learns a user's physical activity and dietary behavior, and provides finely-tuned personalized suggestions. To our knowledge, MyBehavior is the first smartphone app to provide personalized health suggestions automatically, going beyond commonly used one-size-fits-all prescriptive approaches, or tailored interventions from health-care professionals. MyBehavior uses an online multi-armed bandit model to automatically generate context-sensitive and personalized activity/food suggestions by learning the user's actual behavior. The app continually adapts its suggestions by exploiting the most frequent healthy behaviors, while sometimes exploring non-frequent behaviors, in order to maximize the user's chance of reaching a health goal (e.g. weight loss).
