In sports analytics, an understanding of accurate on-field 3D knee joint moments (KJM) could provide an early warning system for athlete workload exposure and knee injury risk. Traditionally, this analysis has relied on captive laboratory…

The kinematics of human movements and locomotion are closely linked to the activation and contractions of muscles. To investigate this, we present a multimodal dataset with benchmarks collected using a novel pair of Intelligent Knee Sleeves…

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.…

Musculoskeletal and neurological disorders are the most common causes of walking problems among older people, and they often lead to diminished quality of life. Analyzing walking motion data manually requires trained professionals and the…

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is among the musculoskeletal disorders that considerably restrict joint mobility, cause severe chronic pain and impact negatively on quality life. It is one of the persistent health issues worldwide. Generally,…

Knee osteoporosis weakens the bone tissue in the knee joint, increasing fracture risk. Early detection through X-ray images enables timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. While some researchers have focused on diagnosing knee…
