Gait detection is essential for the assessment of human health status and early diagnosis of diseases. The current gait analysis systems are bulky, limited in the scope of use, and cause interference with the movement of the measured person. Hence, i...
Step counting devices were previously shown to be efficient in a variety of applications such as athletic training or patient's care programs. Various sensor placements and algorithms were previously experimented, with a best mean absolute percentage...
This study introduces a deep self-organizing map neural network based on level-set (LS-SOM) for the customization of a shoe-last defined from plantar pressure imaging data. To alleviate the over-segmentation problem of images, which refers to segment...
Chronic exposure to arsenic is linked to the development of cancers in the skin, lungs, and bladder. Arsenic exposure manifests as variegated pigmentation and characteristic pitted keratosis on the hands and feet, which often precede the onset of int...
The morphological characteristics of the foot arch and the plantar soft tissue thickness are pivotal in assessing foot health, which is associated with various foot and ankle pathologies. By applying deep learning image segmentation techniques to lat...
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 ...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the feasibility of early detection of fatigued gait patterns for older adults through the development of a smart portable device.
This study aimed to develop and evaluate a deep learning-based system for the automatic measurement of angles (specifically, Meary's angle and calcaneal pitch) in weight-bearing lateral radiographs of the foot for flatfoot diagnosis. We utilized 3960...
The human foot is a complex structure comprising 26 bones, whose coordinated movements facilitate proper deformation of the foot, ensuring stable and efficient locomotion. Despite their critical role, the kinematics of foot bones during movement rema...
