Abnormal spasticity and associated synergistic patterns are the most common neuromuscular impairments affecting ankle-knee-hip interlimb coordinated gait kinematics and kinetics in patients with hemiparetic stroke. Although patients with hemiparetic ...
Human Gait Recognition (HGR) is a biometric technique that has been utilized for security purposes for the last decade. The performance of gait recognition can be influenced by various factors such as wearing clothes, carrying a bag, and the walking ...
In response to the ever-increasing demand of lower limb rehabilitation, this paper presents a novel robot-assisted gait trainer (RGT) to assist the elderly and the pediatric patients with neurological impairments in the lower limb rehabilitation trai...
Gait performance is an important marker of motor and cognitive decline in older adults. An instrumented gait analysis resorting to inertial sensors allows the complete evaluation of spatiotemporal gait parameters, offering an alternative to laborator...
The invention of soft wearable assistive devices, known as exosuits, introduced a new aspect in assisting unimpaired subjects. In this study, we designed and developed an exosuit with compliant biarticular thigh actuators called BATEX. Unlike the con...

Neural information decomposed from electromyography (EMG) signals provides a new path of EMG-based human-machine interface. Instead of the motor unit decomposition-based method, this work presents a novel neural interface for human gait tracking base...
Quadrupeds exhibit versatile and adaptive running by exploiting the flying phase during the stride cycle. Various interlimb coordination mechanisms focusing on mechanical loads during the stance phase have been proposed to understand the underlying c...
Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) could be a rehabilitation option for patients after experiencing a stroke. This study aims to determine the sex-related response to robot-assisted gait training in a cohort of subacute stroke patients considering ...
BACKGROUND: Early detection of gait abnormalities is critical for preventing severe injuries in future falls. The timed up and go (TUG) test is a commonly used clinical gait screening test; however, the interpretation of its results is limited to the...
