A machine learning approach to real-time calculation of joint angles during walking and running using self-placed inertial measurement units.

Gait & posture
BACKGROUND: Inter-segment joint angles can be obtained from inertial measurement units (IMUs); however, accurate 3D joint motion measurement, which requires sensor fusion and signal processing, sensor alignment with segments and joint axis calibratio...

Machine learning for early detection and severity classification in people with Parkinson's disease.

Scientific reports
Early detection of Parkinson's disease (PD) and accurate assessment of disease progression are critical for optimizing treatment and rehabilitation. However, there is no consensus on how to effectively detect early-stage PD and classify motor symptom...

Blood Biomarker Signatures for Slow Gait Speed in Older Adults: An Explainable Machine Learning Approach.

Brain, behavior, and immunity
Maintaining physical function is crucial for independent living in older adults, with gait speed being a key predictor of health outcomes. Blood biomarkers may potentially monitor older adults' mobility, yet their association with slow gait speed sti...

Machine learning model identifies patient gait speed throughout the episode of care, generating notifications for clinician evaluation.

Gait & posture
INTRODUCTION: The advent of digital and mobile health innovations, especially use of wearables for passive data collection, allows remote monitoring and creates an abundance of data. For this information to be interpretable, machine learning (ML) pro...

GaitKeeper: An AI-Enabled Mobile Technology to Standardize and Measure Gait Speed.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Gait speed is increasingly recognized as an important health indicator. However, gait analysis in clinical settings often encounters inconsistencies due to methodological variability and resource constraints. To address these challenges, GaitKeeper u...

Machine learning approach to classifying declines of physical function and muscle strength associated with cognitive function in older women: gait characteristics based on three speeds.

Frontiers in public health
BACKGROUND: The aging process is associated with a cognitive and physical declines that affects neuromotor control, memory, executive functions, and motor abilities. Previous studies have made efforts to find biomarkers, utilizing complex factors suc...

BlazePose-Seq2Seq: Leveraging Regular RGB Cameras for Robust Gait Assessment.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Evaluation of human gait through smartphone-based pose estimation algorithms provides an attractive alternative to costly lab-bound instrumented assessment and offers a paradigm shift with real time gait capture for clinical assessment. Systems based...

IMU-Based Real-Time Estimation of Gait Phase Using Multi-Resolution Neural Networks.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This work presents a real-time gait phase estimator using thigh- and shank-mounted inertial measurement units (IMUs). A multi-rate convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained to estimate gait phase for a dataset of 16 participants walking on an in...

Prediction of postoperative gait speed change after bilateral primary total knee arthroplasty in female patients using a machine learning algorithm.

Orthopaedics & traumatology, surgery & research : OTSR
BACKGROUND: An important aim of total knee arthroplasty is to achieve functional recovery, which includes post-operative increase in walking speed. Therefore, predicting whether a patient will walk faster or slower after surgery is important in TKA, ...

On the relation between gait speed and gait cycle duration for walking on even ground.

Journal of biomechanics
Gait models and reference motions are essential for the objective assessment of walking patterns and therapy progress, as well as research in the field of wearable robotics and rehabilitation devices in general. A human can achieve a desired gait spe...
