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

Drift-Free Foot Orientation Estimation in Running Using Wearable IMU
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 ...

Human Preference-Based Learning for High-dimensional Optimization of Exoskeleton Walking Gaits [PDF]
Optimizing lower-body exoskeleton walking gaits for user comfort requires understanding users’ preferences over a high-dimensional gait parameter space. However, existing preference-based learning methods have only explored low-dimensional domains due to

Center of mass movement estimation using an ambulatory measurement system [PDF]
Human body movement analysis is done in so-called 'gait-laboratories' where several gait variables are estimated by measurement systems such as optical position measurement systems, EMG or force plates.

Longitudinal quasi-static stability predicts changes in dog gait on rough terrain [PDF]
Legged animals utilize gait selection to move effectively and must recover from environmental perturbations. We show that on rough terrain, domestic dogs, Canis lupus familiaris, spend more time in longitudinal quasi-statically stable patterns of ...
