Sedentary behavior poses a major public health risk, being strongly linked to obesity, cardiovascular disease, and other chronic conditions. Accurately estimating sitting time is therefore critical for monitoring and improving individual…

Human physical motion activity identification has many potential applications in various fields, such as medical diagnosis, military sensing, sports analysis, and human-computer security interaction. With the recent advances in smartphones…

Rehabilitation is important to improve quality of life for mobility-impaired patients. Smart walkers are a commonly used solution that should embed automatic and objective tools for data-driven human-in-the-loop control and monitoring.…

Automatic recognition of the quality of movement in human beings is a challenging task, given the difficulty both in defining the constraints that make a movement correct, and the difficulty in using noisy data to determine if these…

Physical activity during hip fracture rehabilitation is essential for mitigating long-term functional decline in geriatric patients. However, it is rarely quantified in clinical practice. Existing continuous monitoring systems with…

Surface electromyography (sEMG) has gained significant importance during recent advancements in consumer electronics for healthcare systems, gesture analysis and recognition and sign language communication. For such a system, it is…

A review of recent accelerometry experiments points to the need for a careful consideration of the question of where, exactly, the accelerometer sensor itself is located within the device that hosts the services required for its operation.…

We propose a Bayesian hidden Markov model for analyzing time series and sequential data where a special structure of the transition probability matrix is embedded to model explicit-duration semi-Markovian dynamics. Our formulation allows…

Human activity recognition (HAR) by wearable sensor devices embedded in the Internet of things (IOT) can play a significant role in remote health monitoring and emergency notification, to provide healthcare of higher standards. The purpose…

Clinical trials that investigate interventions on physical activity often use accelerometers to measure step count at a very granular level, often in 5-second epochs. Participants typically wear the accelerometer for a week-long period at…

The aim of our study is to detect balance disorders and a tendency towards the falls in the elderly, knowing gait parameters. In this paper we present a new tool for gait analysis based on markerless human motion capture, from camera feeds.…

In this paper, a new Smartphone sensor based algorithm is proposed to detect accurate distance estimation. The algorithm consists of two phases, the first phase is for detecting the peaks from the Smartphone accelerometer sensor. The other…

Physical rehabilitation exercises suggested by healthcare professionals can help recovery from various musculoskeletal disorders and prevent re-injury. However, patients' engagement tends to decrease over time without direct supervision,…

We developed a ResNet-based human activity recognition (HAR) model with minimal overhead to detect gait versus non-gait activities and everyday activities (walking, running, stairs, standing, sitting, lying, sit-to-stand transitions). The…

Human activity recognition based on wearable sensor data has been an attractive research topic due to its application in areas such as healthcare and smart environments. In this context, many works have presented remarkable results using…

Hybrid systems, such as bipedal walkers, are challenging to control because of discontinuities in their nonlinear dynamics. Little can be predicted about the systems' evolution without modeling the guard conditions that govern transitions…

Human gait can be a predictive factor for detecting pathologies that affect human locomotion according to studies. In addition, it is known that a high investment is demanded in order to raise a traditional clinical infrastructure able to…

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…

Gait velocity has been consistently shown to be an important indicator and predictor of health status, especially in older adults. Gait velocity is often assessed clinically, but the assessments occur infrequently and thus do not allow…

To improve the control of wearable robotics for gait assistance, we present an approach for continuous locomotion mode recognition as well as gait phase and stair slope estimation based on artificial neural networks that include time…
