Speeding Up Gait in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2020
Background: Gait speed is an important outcome that relates to mobility, function, and mortality, and is altered in people with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD).

Speed-Invariant Gait Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 2014
We propose a method of speed-invariant gait recognition in a unified framework of model- and appearance-based approaches. When a person changes his/her walking speed, kinematic features (e.g., stride and joint angle) are changed while static features (e.g., thigh and shin lengths) are preserved. Based on the fact, firstly, static and kinematic features

Comparison of Gait Speed Reserve, Usual Gait Speed, and Maximum Gait Speed of Adults Aged 50+ in Ireland Using Explainable Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Network Physiology, 2021
Gait speed is a measure of general fitness. Changing from usual (UGS) to maximum (MGS) gait speed requires coordinated action of many body systems. Gait speed reserve (GSR) is defined as MGS–UGS. From a shortlist of 88 features across five categories including sociodemographic, cognitive, and physiological, we aimed to find and ...

Gait Speed and Decline in Gait Speed as Predictors of Incident Dementia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 2016
Slow gait is common in dementia, but it remains unknown whether the slowing happens many years prior to dementia onset. We therefore examined the relationship between slow baseline gait speed (GS), change in GS, and the hazard of incident dementia in a community dwelling of elderly people.A total of 3,663 participants dementia-free at baseline (mean ...

Robust gait recognition under variable covariate conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Determinants of Gait Speed in COPD [PDF]

open access: yesChest, 2014
Measures of physical function, daily physical activity, and exercise capacity have been proposed for the care of patients with COPD but are not used routinely in daily office care. Gait speed is a powerful and simple measure of physical function in elderly patients and seems to be a promising measure for the daily care of patients with COPD.

Predictors of Gait Speeds and the Relationship of Gait Speeds to Falls in Men and Women with Parkinson Disease [PDF]

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2013
Gait difficulties and falls are commonly reported in people with Parkinson disease (PD). Reduction in gait speed is a major characteristic of Parkinsonian gait, yet little is known about its underlying determinants, its ability to reflect an internal reservation about walking, or its relationship to falls.

Gait speed and pedestrian crossings in COPD [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 2017
The assumed minimum walking speed at pedestrian crossings is 1.2 m/s. In this prospective cohort study, usual walking speed was measured over a 4 m course in 926 community-dwelling, ambulatory patients with stable COPD. Mean (SD) walking speed was 0.91 (0.24) m/s with only 10.7% walking at a speed equal or greater than 1.2 m/s. In order for 95% of this

The Relationship between Gait Velocity and Walking Pattern in Hemiplegic Patients

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Background Gait speed represents a functional predictor and an impairment severity index in stroke survivors; gait analysis parameters are descriptors of walking strategies used to compensate for the muscle impairment such as vaulting, circumduction and ...
