Abstract

A portable electronic device is controlled, for example to selectively activate a flight mode, based on first event data and/or second event data. The first event data is generated by operating a first model for detection of airplane flight events, AFEs, on first sensing data representing ambient pressure. The second event data is generated by operating a second model for detection of AFEs on second sensing data representing own motion or ambient sound. A control method in the portable electronic device generates training data comprising groups of time-aligned data samples from the first event data and the second sensing data, generates an updated second model by use of the training data, and replaces the second model by the updated second model. The control method facilitates adaptation of the portable electronic device to detect airplane flight events in new environments and enables improved robustness when detecting AFEs.
