  2. 1. A Symbolic Approach to Human Motion Analysis Using Inertial Sensors : Framework and Gait Analysis Study

    Author : Anita Sant'Anna; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Nicholas Wickström; Kamiar Aminian; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; symbolization; expert knowledge; gait analysis; inertial sensors;

    Abstract : Motion analysis deals with determining what and how activities are being performed by a subject, through the use of sensors. The process of answering the what question is commonly known as classification, and answering the how question is here referred to as characterization. READ MORE

  4. 2. Inertial motion capture for ambulatory analysis of human movement and balance

    Author : Fredrik Olsson; Kjartan Halvorsen; Peter H. Veltink; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inertial sensors; Human motion capture; Calibration; Neuromuscular control; Human balance; Tremor quantification;

    Abstract : Inertial sensors (accelerometers and gyroscopes) are ubiquitous in today’s society, where they can be found in many of our everyday mobile devices. These sensors are capable of recording the movement of the device, and by extension, the movement of humans carrying or interacting with the device. READ MORE

  5. 3. Interactive sonification of motion : Design, implementation and control of expressive auditory feedback with mobile devices

    Author : Gaël Dubus; Roberto Bresin; Paul Vickers; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Speech and Music Communication; Tal- och musikkommunikation;

    Abstract : Sound and motion are intrinsically related, by their physical nature and through the link between auditory perception and motor control. If sound provides information about the characteristics of a movement, a movement can also be influenced or triggered by a sound pattern. READ MORE

  6. 4. Human motion prediction using wearable sensors and machine Learning

    Author : Binbin Su; Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik; Christian Smith; Neil Cronin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wearable sensors; gait segmentation; lower limb angular velocity; machine learning; deep learning; reinforcement learning; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Accurately measuring and predicting human movement is important in many contexts, such as in rehabilitation and the design of assistive devices. Thanks to the development and availability of a wide variety of sensors, scientists study human movement in many settings and capture characteristic properties unique to individuals as well as to larger study populations.

  7. 5. Sensor-based knowledge- and data-driven methods : A case of Parkinson’s disease motor symptoms quantification

    Author : Somayeh Aghanavesi; Mark Dougherty; Mobyen Uddin Ahmed; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Parkinson’s disease; motion sensors; motor symptoms; smartphone; microdata; multivariate analysis; data-driven; knowledge-driven; support vector machine stepwise regression; predictive models; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to develop and evaluate new knowledge- and data-driven methods for supporting treatment and providing information for better assessment of Parkinson’s disease (PD).PD is complex and progressive. There is a large amount of inter- and intravariability in motor symptoms of patients with PD (PwPD). READ MORE
