The potential of machine learning in classifying relapse and non-relapse in children with clubfoot based on movement patterns.

Scientific reports
The diverse nature and timing of a clubfoot relapse pose challenges for early detection. A relapsed clubfoot typically involves a combination of deformities affecting a child's movement pattern across multiple joint levels, formed by a complex kinema...

A forward-engineered, muscle-driven soft robotic swimmer.

Science advances
The field of biohybrid robotics focuses on using biological actuators to study the emergent properties of tissues and the locomotion of living organisms. On the basis of models of swimming at small size scales, we designed and fabricated a muscle-pow...

An eel-like robot based on a dielectric elastomer.

PloS one
Eels have attracted significant research interest because of their long-distance migration and high-endurance cruising behavior. An underwater eel-like robot design inspired by these creatures has the potential for high efficiency, strong maneuverabi...

Machine learning-assisted early detection of keratoconus: a comparative analysis of corneal topography and biomechanical data.

Scientific reports
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease characterized by the thinning and bulging of the cornea, leading to visual impairment. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management and treatment. This study investigates the application of...

Deep learning diagnosis plus kinematic severity assessments of neurodivergent disorders.

Scientific reports
Early diagnostic assessments of neurodivergent disorders (NDD), remains a major clinical challenge. We address this problem by pursuing the hypothesis that there is important cognitive information about NDD conditions contained in the way individuals...

Diagnosis of psoriasis and lichen planus in real-time using neural networks based on skin Biomechanical properties obtained from numerical simulation.

Scientific reports
Due to their similar clinical presentations, the scarcity of competent dermatologists, and the urgency of diagnosis, the accurate diagnosis of dermatological conditions such as Psoriasis and Lichen Planus is challenging. This study introduces a novel...

Recognition of anxiety and depression using gait data recorded by the kinect sensor: a machine learning approach with data augmentation.

Scientific reports
Anxiety and depression disorders are increasingly common, necessitating methods for real-time assessment and early identification. This study investigates gait analysis as a potential indicator of mental health, using the Microsoft Kinect sensor to c...

Machine learning analysis of kinematic movement features during functional tasks to discriminate chronic neck pain patients from asymptomatic controls.

Scientific reports
This study evaluated the discriminative potential of a machine learning model using movement features during functional tasks to distinguish between patients with non-traumatic chronic neck pain and asymptomatic controls. The study included patients ...

Data augmentation of time-series data in human movement biomechanics: A scoping review.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: The integration of machine learning and deep learning methodologies has transformed data analytics in biomechanics. However, the field faces challenges such as limited large-scale data sets, high data acquisition costs, and restricted par...

OpenExo: An open-source modular exoskeleton to augment human function.

Science robotics
Although the field of wearable robotic exoskeletons is rapidly expanding, there are several barriers to entry that discourage many from pursuing research in this area, ultimately hindering growth. Chief among these is the lengthy and costly developme...
