Gait Identification and Recognition Sensor
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the major obstacles in developing reliable walking neural prostheses is poor performance of the sensors which are used for gait phases identification. Improper functioning of these sensors causes wrong stimulation pattern selection and wrong stimulation sequencing of the walking neural prostheses. These malfunctions often cause unstable walking patterns in patients that are using the prostheses. Sensors that are commonly used for gait phase identification are: foot switches, force sensitive resistors (FSRs), accelerometers, pendulum resistors and goniometers. Since none of these sensors is capable of identifying gait phases with accuracy greater than 95 %, a decision was made to develop more reliable gait identification sensor.

Gait Identification Using Cumulants of Accelerometer Data
This paper describes gait identification using cumulants of accelerometer data. Accelerometer data of three different walking speeds for each subject (normal, slow and fast) was acquired by a cell phone placed on the person’s hip. Data analysis was based on gait cycles that were detected first. Cumulants of order from 1 to 4 with lags from 0 to 10 for second, third and fourth order cumulants we...
