摘要： Featured Application This research introduces a novel wearable device that uses an acceleration threshold behavior recognition method to classify horse activities into three levels: low (standing), medium (walking), and high (trotting, cantering, and galloping). The recognition algorithm is directly implemented in the hardware, which horses wear during their training sessions. This device allows for the real-time analysis of horse activity levels and the accurate calculation of the time spent in each activity state. This method provides scientific data support for horse training, facilitating the optimization of training programs.Abstract This study demonstrated that wearable devices can distinguish between different levels of horse activity, categorized into three types based on the horse's gaits: low activity (standing), medium activity (walking), and high activity (trotting, cantering, and galloping). Current research in activity level classification predominantly relies on deep learning techniques, known for their effectiveness but also their demand for substantial data and computational resources. This study introduces a combined acceleration threshold behavior recognition method tailored for wearable hardware devices, enabling these devices to classify the activity levels of horses directly. The approach comprises three sequential phases: first, a combined acceleration interval counting method utilizing a non-linear segmentation strategy for preliminary classification; second, a statistical analysis of the variance among these segments, coupled with multi-level threshold processing; third, a method using variance-based proximity classification for recognition. The experimental results show that the initial stage achieved an accuracy of 87.55% using interval counting, the second stage reached 90.87% with variance analysis, and the third stage achieved 91.27% through variance-based proximity classification. When all three stages are combined, the classification accuracy improves to 92.74%. Extensive testing with the Xinjiang Wild Horse Group validated the feasibility of the proposed solution and demonstrated its practical applicability in real-world scenarios.
