Electromyographic (EMG) signals have gained popularity for controlling prostheses and exoskeletons, particularly in the field of upper limbs for stroke patients. However, there is a lack of research in the lower limb area, and standardized open-sourc...
Gait, a manifestation of one's walking pattern, intricately reflects the harmonious interplay of various bodily systems, offering valuable insights into an individual's health status. However, the current study has shortcomings in the extraction of t...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is promising to help walking rehabilitation in cerebral palsy, but training-induced neuroplastic effects have little been investigated.
Sensorimotor control of complex, dynamic systems such as humanoids or quadrupedal robots is notoriously difficult. While artificial systems traditionally employ hierarchical optimisation approaches or black-box policies, recent results in systems neu...

This study proposes a multiclass model to classify the severity of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) using bioimpedance measurements. The experimental setup considered three types of measurements using eight electrodes: global impedance with adjacent pattern...
BACKGROUND: Falls among the elderly are a major societal problem. While observations of medium-distance walking using inertial sensors identified potential fall predictors, classifying individuals at risk based on single gait cycles remains elusive. ...

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of our report was to use a Random Forest classification approach to predict the association between transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and walking kinematics at the stride level when middle-aged and older adu...
Time-series data are common in biomechanical studies. These data often undergo pre-processing steps such as time normalization or filtering prior to use in further analyses, including deep-learning classification. In this context, it remains unclear ...
