Predicting lower body joint moments and electromyography signals using ground reaction forces during walking and running: An artificial neural network approach.

Gait & posture
BACKGROUND: This study leverages Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to predict lower limb joint moments and electromyography (EMG) signals from Ground Reaction Forces (GRF), providing a novel perspective on human gait analysis. This approach aims to e...

Design and Validation of a Pancake Style Planetary Gearbox for an Eddy Current-Based Wearable Gait Training Robot.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Eddy current brakes have been recently used for functional resistance training in individuals with neurological and orthopaedic disorders. These devices consist of a gearbox, a conductive disc, and permanent magnets that can be moved relative to the ...

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...

Exploring Dance as a Therapeutic Approach for Parkinson Disease Through the Social Robotics for Active and Healthy Ageing (SI-Robotics): Results From a Technical Feasibility Study.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms. Recently, dance has started to be considered an effective intervention for people with PD. Several findings in the literature emphasize th...

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...

Multimodal fuzzy logic-based gait evaluation system for assessing children with cerebral palsy.

Scientific reports
Gait analysis is crucial for identifying functional deviations from the normal gait cycle and is essential for the individualized treatment of motor disorders such as cerebral palsy (CP). The primary contribution of this study is the introduction of ...

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...

A Fusion Network With Stacked Denoise Autoencoder and Meta Learning for Lateral Walking Gait Phase Recognition and Multi-Step-Ahead Prediction.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Lateral walking gait phase recognition and prediction are the premise of hip exoskeleton application in lateral resistance walk exercise. We presented a fusion network with stacked denoise autoencoder and meta learning (SDA-NN-ML) to recognize gait p...

Adaptive Gait Feature Learning Using Mixed Gait Sequence.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
Gait recognition has become a mainstream technology for identification, as it can recognize the identity of subjects from a distance without any cooperation. However, when subjects wear coats (CL) or backpacks (BG), their gait silhouette will be occl...

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...
