On covariate factor detection and removal for robust gait recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose a novel bolt-on model capable of boostingthe robustness of various single compact 2D gait representations.Gait recognition is negatively influenced by covariatefactors including clothing and time which alter thenatural gait appearance and ...

Characteristics of Cerebral Palsy in the Midwestern US

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong motor disability worldwide. Yet, data is limited on how CP manifests in the US. Our objective was to characterize and determine factors affecting functional outcomes in a large population of young people with CP in the Midwestern US.

Modelling and correcting for the impact of the gait cycle on touch screen typing accuracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Walking and typing on a smartphone is an extremely common interaction. Previous research has shown that error rates are higher when walking than when stationary.

Moyamoya Disease and the Risk of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cerebrovascular disorder characterized by the progressive narrowing of arteries at the base of the brain, forming abnormal collateral vascular networks. While vascular parkinsonism is noted in MMD, its link to Parkinson's disease (PD) has not been explored.

An Experimental Evaluation of Bayesian Optimization on Bipedal Locomotion

open access: yes, 2013
© 2014 IEEE.The design of gaits and corresponding control policies for bipedal walkers is a key challenge in robot locomotion. Even when a viable controller parametrization already exists, finding near-optimal parameters can be daunting.

Gait recognition based on shape and motion analysis of silhouette contours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents a three-phase gait recognition method that analyses the spatio-temporal shape and dynamic motion (STS-DM) characteristics of a human subject’s silhouettes to identify the subject in the presence of most of the challenging factors that

Prevalence of Stroke and Diagnostic Performance of Emergency MRI in Acute Isolated Dizziness

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Stroke is frequently misdiagnosed in patients presenting with acute isolated dizziness; the optimal imaging modality for this population remains debated. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of stroke among patients with isolated dizziness and to assess the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed ...

Dynamic distance-based shape features for gait recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We propose a novel skeleton-based approach to gait recognition using our Skeleton Variance Image. The core of our approach consists of employing the screened Poisson equation to construct a family of smooth distance functions associated with a given ...

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...

Lesion Location and Functional Connections Reveal Cognitive Impairment Networks in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive impairment, fatigue, and depression are common in multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially due to disruption of regional functional connectivity caused by white matter (WM) lesions. We explored whether WM lesions functionally connected to specific brain regions contribute to these MS‐related manifestations.
