Bipolar disorder (BD) is a mood disorder with different phases alternating between euthymia, manic or hypomanic episodes, and depressive episodes. While motor abnormalities are commonly seen during depressive or manic episodes, not much attention has...
BACKGROUND: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a multifaceted neurodevelopmental psychiatric condition that typically emerges during childhood but often persists into adulthood, significantly impacting individuals' functioning, relati...
BACKGROUND: Fall detection is of great significance in safeguarding human health. By monitoring the motion data, a fall detection system (FDS) can detect a fall accident. Recently, wearable sensors-based FDSs have become the mainstream of research, w...
PURPOSE: Estimating loading of the knee joint may be helpful in managing degenerative joint diseases. Contemporary methods to estimate loading involve calculating knee joint contact forces using musculoskeletal modeling and simulation from motion cap...
Poor pain alleviation remains a problem following orthopedic surgery, leading to prolonged recovery time, increased morbidity, and prolonged opioid use after hospitalization. Wearable device data, collected during postsurgical recovery, may help amel...
Recent reports have suggested that there may be a relationship between footstrike pattern and overuse injury incidence and type. With the recent increase in wearable sensors, it is important to identify paradigms where the footstrike pattern can be d...
The behavior of pedestrians in a non-constrained environment is difficult to predict. In wearable robotics, this poses a challenge, since devices like lower-limb exoskeletons and active orthoses need to support different walking activities, including...
Quantitative mobility analysis using wearable sensors, while promising as a diagnostic tool for Parkinson's disease (PD), is not commonly applied in clinical settings. Major obstacles include uncertainty regarding the best protocol for instrumented m...
Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) and mood disorders are common in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and increase the risk of progression to dementia. Wearable devices collecting physiological and behavioral data can help in remote, pass...
