Dung beetles impressively coordinate their 6 legs to effectively roll large dung balls. They can also roll dung balls varying in the weight on different terrains. The mechanisms underlying how their motor commands are adapted to walk and simultaneous...
Step counting devices were previously shown to be efficient in a variety of applications such as athletic training or patient's care programs. Various sensor placements and algorithms were previously experimented, with a best mean absolute percentage...
The heterogeneity of Parkinson's disease (PD) presents considerable challenges for accurate diagnosis, particularly during early-stage disease, when the symptoms may be extremely subtle. This study aimed to assess the accuracy of a convolutional neur...
Oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]) is an important measure for exercise test, such as walking and running, that can be measured outdoors using portable spirometers or metabolic analyzers. However, these devices are not feasible for regular use ...
