Risk factors for foot ulceration in adults with end‐stage renal disease on dialysis: study protocol for a prospective observational cohort study

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2015
Background Adults with end‐stage renal disease treated with dialysis experience a high burden of foot ulceration and lower extremity amputation. However, the risk factors for foot ulceration in the dialysis population are incompletely understood due to ...

Exoskeleton therapy in cerebral palsy: improved gait endurance without kinematic change

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
IntroductionCerebral palsy (CP) often leads to impairments in movement and posture, limiting functional mobility. Robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) using powered exoskeletons has emerged as a novel approach to enhance gait in individuals with CP ...

Principles of pathological gait [PDF]

, 2013
Summary: Walking for healthy humans is a basic everyday activity. In patients, especially those with neurologic disorders, the walking pattern can strongly deviate from those of healthy humans.

Feature extraction from ear-worn sensor data for gait analysis [PDF]

, 2014
Gait analysis has a significant role in assessing human's walking pattern. It is generally used in sports science for understanding body mechanics, and it is also used to monitor patients' neuro-disorder related gait abnormalities.

Model-based 3D gait biometrics

, 2013
Gait biometrics has attracted increasing interest in the computer vision and machine learning communities because of its unique advantages for recognition at distance. However, there have as yet been few gait biometric approaches which use temporal three-

Automatic Gait Recognition

, 1999
Gait is an emergent biometric aimed essentially to recognise people by the way they walk. Gait's advantages are that it is non-invasive, like automatic face recognition, and that it is less likely to be obscured than other biometrics.

Experimental demonstration of quantum digital signatures over 43 dB channel loss using differential phase shift quantum key distribution

Scientific Reports, 2017
Ensuring the integrity and transferability of digital messages is an important challenge in modern communications. Although purely mathematical approaches exist, they usually rely on the computational complexity of certain functions, in which case there ...

Automatic gait recognition by symmetry analysis

, 2003
We describe a new method for automatic gait recognition based on analysing the symmetry of human motion using the Generalised Symmetry Operator. This approach is reinforced by the psychologists' view that gait is a symmetrical pattern of motion and ...
