We investigate via extensive experimental data the dynamics of pedestrians walking in a corridor-shaped landing in a building at Eindhoven University of Technology. With year-long automatic measurements employing a Microsoft KinectTM…
Markerless motion capture (MMC) is revolutionizing gait analysis in clinical settings by making it more accessible, raising the question of how to extract the most clinically meaningful information from gait data. In multiple fields ranging…
Automatic classification of running styles can enable runners to obtain feedback with the aim of optimizing performance in terms of minimizing energy expenditure, fatigue, and risk of injury. To develop a system capable of classifying…
Gait recognition aims to identify individual-specific walking patterns by observing the different periodic movements of each body part. However, most existing methods treat each part equally and fail to account for the data redundancy…
Human walking and gaits involve several complex body parts and are influenced by personality, mood, social and cultural traits, and aging. These factors are reflected in shoeprints, which in turn can be used to predict age, a problem not…
Older adults and people suffering from neurodegenerative disease often experience difficulty controlling gait during locomotion, ultimately increasing their risk of falling. To combat these effects, researchers and clinicians have used…
Passive monitoring in daily life may provide invaluable insights about a person's health throughout the day. Wearable sensor devices are likely to play a key role in enabling such monitoring in a non-obtrusive fashion. However, sensor data…
Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a prevalent orthopedic condition in clinical practice. Inertial measurement unit sensors (IMUs) are an effective tool for monitoring and assessing gait impairment in patients with lumbar disc herniation…
Video-based gait analysis has become a promising approach for assessing motor impairment in children with cerebral palsy (CP). However, existing methods usually rely on either pose sequences or handcrafted gait features alone, making it…
Adaptive biomechanical systems may show similar observable gait performance while differing in latent organization and longitudinal behavior. This study examines whether an observed longitudinal transformation of gait organization can be…
Gait, the walking pattern of individuals, is one of the most important biometrics modalities. Most of the existing gait recognition methods take silhouettes or articulated body models as the gait features. These methods suffer from degraded…
Gait analysis is crucial for the diagnosis and monitoring of movement disorders like Parkinson's Disease. While computer vision models have shown potential for objectively evaluating parkinsonian gait, their effectiveness is limited by…
Human gait has been shown to provide crucial motion cues for various applications. Recognizing patterns in human gait has been widely adopted in various application areas such as security, virtual reality gaming, medical rehabilitation, and…
As a hot topic in recent years, the ability of pedestrians identification based on radar micro-Doppler signatures is limited by the lack of adequate training data. In this paper, we propose a data-enhanced multi-characteristic learning…
Remote monitoring of motor functions is a powerful approach for health assessment, especially among the elderly population or among subjects affected by pathologies that negatively impact their walking capabilities. This is further…
Each person has a unique gait, i.e., walking style, that can be used as a biometric for personal identification. Recent works have demonstrated effective gait recognition using deep neural networks, however most of these works predominantly…
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…
Aiming at objective early detection of neuromotor disorders such as cerebral palsy, we proposed an innovative non-intrusive approach using a pressure sensing device to classify infant general movements (GMs). Here, we tested the feasibility…
Physical activity patterns can be informative about a patient's health status. Traditionally, activity data have been gathered using patient self-report. However, these subjective data can suffer from bias and are difficult to collect over…
Diabetes foot ulceration (DFU) and amputation are a cause of significant morbidity. The prevention of DFU may be achieved by the identification of patients at risk of DFU and the institution of preventative measures through education and…
