Consumer-priced wearable sensors combined with deep learning can be used to accurately predict ground reaction forces during various treadmill running conditions.

PeerJ
Ground reaction force (GRF) data is often collected for the biomechanical analysis of running, due to the performance and injury risk insights that GRF analysis can provide. Traditional methods typically limit GRF collection to controlled lab environ...

A machine learning system for artificial ligaments with desired mechanical properties in ACL reconstruction applications.

Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials
The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the important tissues to maintain the stability of the human knee joint, but it is difficult for this ligament to self-heal after injury. Consequently, transplantation of artificial ligaments (ALs) has gained ...

AI-Based Denoising of Head Impact Kinematics Measurements With Convolutional Neural Network for Traumatic Brain Injury Prediction.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Wearable devices are developed to measure head impact kinematics but are intrinsically noisy because of the imperfect interface with human bodies. This study aimed to improve the head impact kinematics measurements obtained from instrument...

Acquisition of Data on Kinematic Responses to Unpredictable Gait Perturbations: Collection and Quality Assurance of Data for Use in Machine Learning Algorithms for (Near-)Fall Detection.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Slip, trip, and fall (STF) accidents cause high rates of absence from work in many companies. During the 2022 reporting period, the German Social Accident Insurance recorded 165,420 STF accidents, of which 12 were fatal and 2485 led to disability pen...

Phase-Based Gait Prediction after Botulinum Toxin Treatment Using Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Gait disorders in neurological diseases are frequently associated with spasticity. Intramuscular injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A) can be used to treat spasticity. Providing optimal treatment with the highest possible benefit-risk ratio is ...

Gait pattern modification based on ground contact adaptation using the robot-assisted training platform (RATP).

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Robot-assisted rehabilitation and training systems are utilized to improve the functional recovery of individuals with mobility limitations. These systems offer structured rehabilitation through precise human-robot interaction, outperforming traditio...

Comparing the effectiveness of robotic plantarflexion resistance and biofeedback between overground and treadmill walking.

Journal of biomechanics
Individuals with diminished walking performance caused by neuromuscular impairments often lack plantar flexion muscle activity. Robotic devices have been developed to address these issues and increase walking performance. While these devices have sho...

Comparison of the Accuracy of Ground Reaction Force Component Estimation between Supervised Machine Learning and Deep Learning Methods Using Pressure Insoles.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The three Ground Reaction Force (GRF) components can be estimated using pressure insole sensors. In this paper, we compare the accuracy of estimating GRF components for both feet using six methods: three Deep Learning (DL) methods (Artificial Neural ...

Kinematics-Based Predictions of External Loads during Handcycling.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The increased risk of cardiovascular disease in people with spinal cord injuries motivates work to identify exercise options that improve health outcomes without causing risk of musculoskeletal injury. Handcycling is an exercise mode that may be bene...

What the trained eye cannot see: Quantitative kinematics and machine learning detect movement deficits in early-stage Parkinson's disease from videos.

Parkinsonism & related disorders
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of disease severity in Parkinson's disease (PD) relies on motor symptoms quantification. However, during early-stage PD, these symptoms are subtle and difficult to quantify by experts, which might result in delayed diagnosis an...
