A Random Forest Machine Learning Framework to Reduce Running Injuries in Young Triathletes.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
BACKGROUND: The running segment of a triathlon produces 70% of the lower limb injuries. Previous research has shown a clear association between kinematic patterns and specific injuries during running.

Lower body kinematics estimation from wearable sensors for walking and running: A deep learning approach.

Gait & posture
BACKGROUND: Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are promising tools for collecting human movement data. Model-based filtering approaches (e.g. Extended Kalman Filter) have been proposed to estimate joint angles from IMUs data but little is known about ...

Combining wearable sensor signals, machine learning and biomechanics to estimate tibial bone force and damage during running.

Human movement science
There are tremendous opportunities to advance science, clinical care, sports performance, and societal health if we are able to develop tools for monitoring musculoskeletal loading (e.g., forces on bones or muscles) outside the lab. While wearable se...

Mechanics of walking and running up and downhill: A joint-level perspective to guide design of lower-limb exoskeletons.

PloS one
Lower-limb wearable robotic devices can improve clinical gait and reduce energetic demand in healthy populations. To help enable real-world use, we sought to examine how assistance should be applied in variable gait conditions and suggest an approach...

Viscoelastic legs for open-loop control of gram-scale robots.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Gram-scale insects, such as cockroaches, take advantage of the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system to enable rapid and robust running. Engineering gram-scale robots, much like their biological counterparts, comes with inherent constra...

Deep learning approach for prediction of impact peak appearance at ground reaction force signal of running activity.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Protruding impact peak is one of the features of vertical ground reaction force (GRF) that is related to injury risk while running. The present research is dedicated to predicting GRF impact peak appearance by setting a binary classification problem....

Estimating Lower Extremity Running Gait Kinematics with a Single Accelerometer: A Deep Learning Approach.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Abnormal running kinematics are associated with an increased incidence of lower extremity injuries among runners. Accurate and unobtrusive running kinematic measurement plays an important role in the detection of gait abnormalities and the prevention...

Smartwatch-Derived Data and Machine Learning Algorithms Estimate Classes of Ratings of Perceived Exertion in Runners: A Pilot Study.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The rating of perceived exertion (RPE) is a subjective load marker and may assist in individualizing training prescription, particularly by adjusting running intensity. Unfortunately, RPE has shortcomings (e.g., underreporting) and cannot be monitore...

Wi-Fi CSI-Based Outdoor Human Flow Prediction Using a Support Vector Machine.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This paper proposes a channel state information (CSI)-based prediction method of a human flow that includes activity. The objective of the paper is to predict a human flow in an outdoor road. This human flow prediction is useful for the prediction of...

A neural network method to predict task- and step-specific ground reaction force magnitudes from trunk accelerations during running activities.

Medical engineering & physics
Prediction of ground reaction force (GRF) magnitudes during running-based sports has several important applications, including optimal load prescription and injury prevention in athletes. Existing methods typically require information from multiple b...
