Research in physiology and sports science has shown that fatigue, a complex psychophysiological phenomenon, has a relevant
impact in performance and in the correct functioning of our motricity system, potentially being a cause of damage to the human
organism. Fatigue can be seen as a subjective or objective phenomenon. Subjective fatigue corresponds to a mental and cognitive
event, while fatigue referred as objective is a physical phenomenon. Despite the fact that subjective fatigue is often undervalued,
only a physically and mentally healthy athlete is able to achieve top performance in a discipline. )erefore, we argue that physical
training programs should address the preventive assessment of both subjective and objective fatigue mechanisms in order to
minimize the risk of injuries. In this context, our paper presents a machine-learning system capable of extracting individual fatigue
descriptors (IFDs) from electromyographic (EMG) and heart rate variability (HRV) measurements. Our novel approach, using
two types of biosignals so that a global (mental and physical) fatigue assessment is taken into account, reflects the onset of fatigue
by implementing a combination of a dimensionless (0-1) global fatigue descriptor (GFD) and a support vector machine (SVM)
classifier. )e system, based on 9 main combined features, achieves fatigue regime classification performances of 0.82 ± 0.24,
ensuring a successful preventive assessment when dangerous fatigue levels are reached. Training data were acquired in a constant
work rate test (executed by 14 subjects using a cycloergometry device), where the variable under study (fatigue) gradually
increased until the volunteer reached an objective exhaustion state. [-]
