چکیده

The aim of this study is to develop an automatic computer method to discriminate asymptomatic from knee osteoarthritis pathological gait patterns using ground reaction forces. We investigate a discriminant feature of kinetic data based on wavelets. Classification is based on the nearest neighbor classifier. Experiments were conducted using data of 43 cases, 16 asymptomatic and 27 pathological. The proposed method has a high success rate of 39/43.

Predicting knee osteoarthritis risk in injured populations

BACKGROUND Individuals who suffered a lower limb injury have an increased risk of developing knee osteoarthritis. Early diagnosis of osteoarthritis and the ability to track its progression is challenging. This study aimed to explore links between self-reported knee osteoarthritis outcome scores and biomechanical gait parameters, whether self-reported outcome scores could predict gait abnormalit...

Diagnosis of Tempromandibular Disorders Using Local Binary Patterns

Background: Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) might be manifested as structural changes in bone through modification, adaptation or direct destruction. We propose to use Local Binary Pattern (LBP) characteristics and histogram-oriented gradients on the recorded images as a diagnostic tool in TMD assessment.Material and Methods: CBCT images of 66 patients (132 joints) with TMD and 66 normal...
