Robot-Aided Training of Propulsion: Effects of Torque Pulses Applied to the Hip and Knee Joint Under User-Driven Treadmill Control.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: to establish whether torque pulses applied by an exoskeleton to the hip and knee joint modulate propulsion mechanics and whether changes in propulsion mechanics are sustained after exposure to torque pulses under user-driven treadmill cont...

Squat Motion of a Humanoid Robot Using Three-Particle Model Predictive Control and Whole-Body Control.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Squatting is a fundamental and crucial movement, often employed as a basic test during robot commissioning, and it plays a significant role in some service industries and in cases when robots perform high-dynamic movements like jumping. Therefore, ac...

Foot trajectory as a key factor for diverse gait patterns in quadruped robot locomotion.

Scientific reports
Four-legged robots are becoming increasingly pivotal in navigating challenging environments, such as construction sites and disaster zones. While substantial progress in robotic mobility has been achieved using reinforcement learning techniques, quad...

Neural network surrogate and projected gradient descent for fast and reliable finite element model calibration: A case study on an intervertebral disc.

Computers in biology and medicine
Accurate calibration of finite element (FE) models is essential across various biomechanical applications, including human intervertebral discs (IVDs), to ensure their reliability and use in diagnosing and planning treatments. However, traditional ca...

Step Width Estimation in Individuals With and Without Neurodegenerative Disease via a Novel Data-Augmentation Deep Learning Model and Minimal Wearable Inertial Sensors.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
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...

Fuzzy Synchronization Likelihood Graph in Deep Neural Networks for Human Motion Time Series Analysis.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Variable interactivity is crucial in biological multivariate time series analysis. This research suggests using graph structures to represent such interactions for more explainable decision-making processes. However, measuring the variable interactio...

AI-assisted digital video analysis reveals changes in gait among three-day event horses during competition.

Journal of equine veterinary science
The value and welfare of performance horses is closely tied to locomotor behaviors, but we lack objective and quantitative measures for these characteristics, and qualitative approaches for assessing gait do not provide measures suitable for large-sc...

Research on the movement pattern and kinematic model of the hindlegs of the water boatman.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The special hindleg structure and swimming setae of a water boatman give it a high degree of maneuverability, which plays an important role in swimming. This paper used a high-speed photography platform to extract key points from videos, obtaining th...

Machine learning model to study the rugby head impact in a laboratory setting.

PloS one
The incidence of head impacts in rugby has been a growing concern for player safety. While rugby headgear shows potential to mitigate head impact intensity during laboratory simulations, evaluating its on-field effectiveness is challenging. Current r...

Deep Learning Unravels Differences Between Kinematic and Kinetic Gait Cycle Time Series from Two Control Samples of Healthy Children Assessed in Two Different Gait Laboratories.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
We investigate the application of deep learning in comparing gait cycle time series from two groups of healthy children, each assessed in different gait laboratories. Both laboratories used similar gait analysis protocols with minimal differences in ...
