Being able to predict clinical parameters in order to diagnose gait disorders in a patient is of great value in planning treatments. It is known that \textit{decision parameters} such as cadence, step length, and walking speed are critical…
Gait speed is a widely used indicator of functional health and mobility decline, yet in clinical practice it is commonly measured manually using a stopwatch, which limits scalability and measurement frequency. Privacy-preserving and…
Gait is an important biomarker of functional conditions and gait characteristics can help us assessing health conditions and managing progression of diseases. Most of the existing research study the gait in controlled condition, such as…
Objective: In this paper, we demonstrate the applicability of radar for gait classification with application to home security, medical diagnosis, rehabilitation and assisted living. Aiming at identifying changes in gait patterns based on…
With an aging population, numerous assistive and monitoring technologies are under development to enable older adults to age in place. To facilitate aging in place predicting risk factors such as falls, and hospitalization and providing…
Falls during walking are a major health issue in the elderly population. Older individuals are usually more cautious, work more slowly, take shorter steps, and exhibit increased step-to-step variability. They often have impaired dynamic…
Quantitative estimation of human joint motion in daily living spaces is essential for early detection and rehabilitation tracking of neuromusculoskeletal disorders (e.g., Parkinson's) and mitigating trip and fall risks for older adults.…
This paper describes a method to convert Microsoft Kinect coordinates into gait parameters in order to detect a person's gait change. The proposed method can help quantify the progress of physical therapy. Microsoft Kinect, a popular…
Gait and movement analysis have become a well-established clinical tool for diagnosing health conditions, monitoring disease progression for a wide spectrum of diseases, and to implement and assess treatment, surgery and or rehabilitation…
Several pathologies can alter the way people walk, i.e. their gait. Gait analysis can therefore be used to detect impairments and help diagnose illnesses and assess patient recovery. Using vision-based systems, diagnoses could be done at…
This study describes a method to quantify potential gait changes in human subjects. Microsoft Kinect devices were used to provide and track coordinates of fifteen different joints of a subject over time. Three male subjects walk a 10-foot…
The analysis of human motion as a clinical tool can bring many benefits such as the early detection of disease and the monitoring of recovery, so in turn helping people to lead independent lives. However, it is currently under used.…
Estimation of temporospatial clinical features of gait (CFs), such as step count and length, step duration, step frequency, gait speed, and distance traveled, is an important component of community-based mobility evaluation using wearable…
Coronary artery disease, heart failure, angina pectoris and diabetes are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality over the globe. Susceptibility to such disorders is compounded by changing lifestyles, poor dietary routines, aging…
Gait analysis (GA) has been widely used in physical activity monitoring and clinical contexts, and the estimation of the spatial-temporal gait parameters is of primary importance for GA. With the quick development of smart tiny sensors, GA…
Gait anomaly detection is a task that involves detecting deviations from a person's normal gait pattern. These deviations can indicate health issues and medical conditions in the healthcare domain, or fraudulent impersonation and…
Human identification plays a prominent role in terms of security. In modern times security is becoming the key term for an individual or a country, especially for countries which are facing internal or external threats. Gait analysis is…
Gait is an essential manifestation of depression. Laboratory gait characteristics have been found to be closely associated with depression. However, the gait characteristics of daily walking in real-world scenarios and their relationships…
Human gait has been commonly used for the diagnosis and evaluation of medical conditions and for monitoring the progress during treatment and rehabilitation. The use of wearable sensors that capture pressure or motion has yielded techniques…
Video-based ambient monitoring of gait for older adults with dementia has the potential to detect negative changes in health and allow clinicians and caregivers to intervene early to prevent falls or hospitalizations. Computer vision-based…
