About the company:

MyFiziq Limited (ASX: MYQ) helps in boosting current technologies, where it enters into a partnership with the prevailing applications and offers its partners with a more in-depth understanding into the data which they retrieve from their users.

MyFiziq is a technology inserted into a partner’s application, which uses images from a smartphone for the creation of a representation of an individual on 3-dimension avatar with precise circumference dimensions. By inserting the Software Development Kits of the company in their fresh or already existing applications, the partners can personalize the experience to gratify their branding needs.

Recent Updates:

On 8 July 2019, MyFiziq Limited provided its shareholders with further validation of the MYQ’s patented smartphone technology. Recently, the company engaged Dr Jonathan Staynor, PhD of Body Composition Technologies Pte Ltd (BCT) to take on an internal accuracy validation test on the technology. The outcome of it has now been obtained, and it proved that there is an excellent correlation between the results and the 3D laser accuracy study, concluded by Kuehnapfel Study in 2016.

The Kuehnapfel Study regarded the reliability of 3D laser-based anthropometry for replicating perimeter measurements made by skilled physicians.

Dr Jonathan Staynor PhD tried to replicate this study where he collected physician measured anthropometry data along with the front and side images of 1,500 male and female participants in the age group of 18-65 years. These anthropometry data, as well as these 1,500 images, were used for developing as well as training the deep neural network model for the MYQ and BCT smartphone apps. Further, the neural network in the smartphone application was used to predict body weight along with other body parts such as chest, hip and thigh circumferences of randomly chosen 183 participants who were not a part of the development of this model.

The summary of the result is as below:

In the above summary:

• CCC>= 0.90 means the agreement between the two measurements is outstanding.
• 70 ? CCC < 0.90, means the agreement between the two measurements is good.
• 50 ? CCC < 0.70, means the agreement between the two measurements is moderate, and
• Less than 0.50, means the agreement between the two measurements is low.

The result shows a perfect correlation between the 3D laser scanner and the physician measured circumference in the majority of cases. However, there was an exception in case of thigh circumference where the MyFiziq technology was found to be much more precise.

The announcement also explained the weight prediction. MyFiziq has created a wide data set that is used for the validating the weight of a person through its proprietary machine learning algorithms. The weight of the participant is captured using their accurate 3D rendered model and height via MYQ’s smartphone app.
