Step width is vital for gait stability, postural balance control, and fall risk reduction. However, estimating step width typically requires either fixed cameras or a full kinematic body suit of wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs), both of whi...
Early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, improves treatment and care outcomes for patients. Early signs of cognitive decline can be detected using functional scales, which are written records completed by a clinicia...
The accelerometer, an onboard sensor, enables remote monitoring of animal posture and movement, allowing researchers to deduce behaviors. Despite the automated analysis capabilities provided by deep learning, data scarcity remains a challenge in ecol...
