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

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