Statistical and Machine Learning Models for Classification of Human Wear and Delivery Days in Accelerometry Data

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Accelerometers are increasingly being used in biomedical research, but the analysis of accelerometry data is often complicated by both the massive size of the datasets and the collection of unwanted data from the process of delivery to study participants.

Six decades of animal accelerometry: trends, applications, and future directions [PDF]

open access: yesMovement Ecology
The use of animal-borne devices to measure acceleration has yielded insights into animal locomotion, behaviour and energy expenditure. We present the first systematic review of accelerometry on animals, spanning 60 years, across ecology, biomechanics ...

A Review of Accelerometry-Based Wearable Motion Detectors for Physical Activity Monitoring

open access: yesSensors, 2010
Characteristics of physical activity are indicative of one’s mobility level, latent chronic diseases and aging process. Accelerometers have been widely accepted as useful and practical sensors for wearable devices to measure and assess physical activity.

Accelerometric Classification of Resting and Postural Tremor Amplitude

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Clinical rating scales for tremors have significant limitations due to low resolution, high rater dependency, and lack of applicability in outpatient settings.

Criterion validity of wrist accelerometry for assessing energy intake via the intake-balance technique

open access: yesInternational Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2023
Background Intake-balance assessments measure energy intake (EI) by summing energy expenditure (EE) with concurrent change in energy storage (ΔES).

Wrist accelerometry for monitoring dementia agitation behaviour in clinical settings: A scoping review

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
Agitated behaviour among elderly people with dementia is a challenge in clinical management. Wrist accelerometry could be a versatile tool for making objective, quantitative, and long-term assessments.

Relationship of the sacral slope with early gait derangements in robust older women

open access: yesAdvances in Rheumatology, 2021
Background Trunk pelvic dissociation is fundamental to the compensatory mechanism for muscle weakness during body bending. We carried out an early investigation of gait changes in a sample of community-dwelling women ≥60 years without gait complaints ...

Use of a Collar-Mounted Triaxial Accelerometer to Predict Speed and Gait in Dogs

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Accelerometry has been used to measure treatment efficacy in dogs with osteoarthritis, although interpretation is difficult. Simplification of the output into speed or gait categories could simplify interpretation.

Machine Learning Improves Functional Upper Extremity Use Capture in Distal Radius Fracture Patients

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2022
Summary:. Current outcome measures, including strength/range of motion testing, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), and motor skill testing, may provide inadequate granularity in reflecting functional upper extremity (UE) use after distal radius fracture ...

The feasibility of predicting ground reaction forces during running from a trunk accelerometry driven mass-spring-damper model [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background Monitoring the external ground reaction forces (GRF) acting on the human body during running could help to understand how external loads influence tissue adaptation over time.
