The gait analysis has been applied in many fields, such as the assessment of falling, force evaluation in sports, and gait disorder detection for neuromuscular diseases. Its main recording techniques include video cameras and wearable sensors. Howeve...
Crutches are of extensive applications in the field of rehabilitation. Comprehensively analyzing the ground reaction forces (GRFs) on both crutches and feet can evaluate the patients' walking function recovery. Given more force platforms are needed i...
Exoskeletons have been proposed for potential clinical use to improve ambulatory function in patients with stroke. The aim of an interim analysis of an international, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was to investigate the short-term effect ...

BACKGROUND: Cognitive impairment is common after a stroke, but it can often go undetected. In this study, we investigated whether using gait and dual tasks could help detect cognitive impairment after stroke.
Several studies have highlighted the advantages of employing artificial intelligence (AI) models in gait analysis. However, the credibility and practicality of integrating these models into clinical gait routines remain uncertain. This study critical...
Gait abnormality detection is a growing application in machine learning based health assessment due to its potential in domains from clinical health reviews to at home health monitoring. This latter application is of particular use for older adults, ...
