UNLABELLED: Community mobility, encompassing both active (e.g., walking) and passive (e.g., driving) transport, plays a crucial role in maintaining autonomy and social interaction among older adults. This study aimed to quantify community mobility in...
Humanoid robots are typically designed for static environments, but real-world applications demand robust performance under dynamic, uncertain conditions. This paper introduces a perceptive motion planning and control algorithm that enables humanoid ...
Parkinson's disease is characterized by motor and cognitive deficits. While previous work suggests a relationship between both, direct empirical evidence is scarce or inconclusive. Therefore, we examined the relationship between walking features and ...
Jaywalking, as a hazardous crossing behavior, leaves little time for drivers to anticipate and respond promptly, resulting in high crossing risks. The prevalence of Autonomous Vehicle (AV) technologies has offered new solutions for mitigating jaywalk...
Crawling robots are becoming increasingly prevalent in both industrial and private applications. Despite their many advantages over other robot types, they have complex movement mechanics. Artificial intelligence can simplify this by reinforcement le...
Lower-limb exoskeletons have the potential to transform the way we move, but current state-of-the-art controllers cannot accommodate the rich set of possible human behaviours that range from cyclic and predictable to transitory and unstructured. We i...
BACKGROUND: Gait analysis holds significant importance in monitoring daily health, particularly among older adults. Advancements in sensor technology enable the capture of movement in real-life environments and generate big data. Machine learning, no...

Joint torque prediction is crucial when investigating biomechanics, evaluating treatments, and designing powered assistive devices. Controllers in assistive technology require reference torque trajectories to set the level of assistance for a patient...
To enhance the classification accuracy of lower limb movements, a fusion recognition model integrating a surface electromyography (sEMG)-based convolutional neural network, transformer encoder, and long short-term memory network (CNN-Transformer-LSTM...
