Video Segmentation for Markerless Motion Capture in Unconstrained Environments [PDF]

, 2007
Segmentation is a first and important step in video-based motion capture applications. A lack of constraints can make this process daunting and difficult to achieve. We propose a technique that makes use of an improved JSEG procedure in the context of markerless motion capture for performance evaluation of human beings in unconstrained environments. In

A Gap Analysis of Deep Brain Stimulation for Childhood‐Onset Movement Disorders

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established and increasingly utilized therapy for childhood‐onset movement disorders. However, pediatric DBS poses unique challenges that are not adequately addressed by adult‐derived paradigms. Objective To identify key gaps in the current use of DBS in childhood‐onset movement disorders and to ...

Reachable Workspace as a Clinical Outcome for Upper Extremity Function: A Narrative Review

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motion sensing technology can be utilized to capture detailed upper extremity (UE) motion to reconstruct an individual's three‐dimensional (3D) reachable workspace (RWS). The RWS can be quantified as relative surface area (RSA), providing an innovative surrogate measure to assess UE mobility and function.

Inferring Brown Bear Hair Snare Interactions by Automatically Detecting Bipedalism on Camera Trap Images Using Pose Estimation and a Multilayer Perceptron

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study proposes an automated method to infer brown bear hair snare interactions by detecting bipedal behavior in camera‐trap images using a pose estimation model and a multilayer perceptron (MLP). A YOLO‐based model, fine‐tuned from humans and dogs to a custom dataset, achieved high performance (≈93% keypoint precision and ≈96% classification ...

Step2Motion: Locomotion Reconstruction from Pressure Sensing Insoles

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Human motion is fundamentally driven by continuous physical interaction with the environment. Whether walking, running, or simply standing, the forces exchanged between our feet and the ground provide crucial insights for understanding and reconstructing human movement. Recent advances in wearable insole devices offer a compelling solution for

Exoskeleton‐assisted physiotherapy in school and outpatient contexts for minimally ambulant children with cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To assess the clinical feasibility of lower‐limb pediatric exoskeleton‐assisted (Trexo Plus) physiotherapy for minimally ambulatory children at an outpatient center and a primary school. Secondary aims were to assess associated functional and goal‐based outcomes before and after Trexo‐based physiotherapy.

Machine learning approaches in automated infant General Movements Assessment: A scoping review

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Automated infant General Movements Assessment increasingly uses machine‐ and deep‐learning approaches to classify movement patterns and estimate cerebral palsy risk from video or sensor data. This scoping review highlights how dataset characteristics, recording environment, pose‐estimation accuracy, feature extraction, and model design influence system

Extended Reality in Endodontics: A Review of Current Applications and Future Potential

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Extended reality (XR) technologies, encompassing augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), are increasingly used in endodontic education and practice. A gap exists regarding understanding of XR's applications and limitations among endodontic educators and practitioners.
