Exoskeleton therapy in cerebral palsy: improved gait endurance without kinematic change
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceIntroductionCerebral 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 ...

Biology, 2022 Background: The recurrence rate of lumbar spine microdiscectomies (rLSMs) is estimated to be 5–15%. Lumbar spine flexion (LSF) of more than 10° is mentioned as the most harmful load to the intervertebral disc that could lead to recurrence during the ...

Robust gait recognition under variable covariate conditions [PDF]
, 2010 PhDGait is a weak biometric when compared to face, fingerprint or iris because it can be easily affected by various conditions. These are known as the covariate conditions and include clothing, carrying, speed, shoes and view among others.

Clinical Gait Evaluation with Neuromuscular Impairments (Clinical GENI) for spastic cerebral palsy
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceBackgroundGait abnormalities in spastic cerebral palsy (CP) result from four primary neuromuscular impairments: muscle weakness, short muscle-relative-to-skeletal-length, muscle spasticity, and impaired selective motor control.

Explainable Machine Learning in Human Gait Analysis: A Study on Children With Cerebral Palsy
IEEE Access, 2023 This work investigates the effectiveness of various machine learning (ML) methods in classifying human gait patterns associated with cerebral palsy (CP) and examines the clinical relevance of the learned features using explainability approaches.

Drift-Free Foot Orientation Estimation in Running Using Wearable IMU
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 This study aimed to introduce and validate a new method to estimate and correct the orientation drift measured from foot-worn inertial sensors. A modified strap-down integration (MSDI) was proposed to decrease the orientation drift, which, in turn, was ...

Model-driven statistical analysis of human gait motion
, 2002 We describe a new method for analyzing and extracting human gait motion by combining statistical methods with image processing. The periodic motion of human gait is modeled by trigonometric-polynomial interpolant functions.
