'Isabel Benavente-Fernández' 'Syed Taimoor Hussain' 'Syed Adil Hussain' 'Simón P. Lubián-López' 'Angel Ruiz-Zafra' 'Jorge Pérez-Gómez'] Background: Traditional neonatal assessments rely on anthropometric measures such as weight, body size, and head circumference. However, recent studies suggest that objective movement…

Natural movement is clearly related to health, however, it is also highly complex and difficult to measure. Most attempts to measure it focus on functional movements in humans, and while this a valid and popular approach, assays focussed on particular movements cannot capture the range of natural movement that occurs…

'Konrad P. Körding'] Over the last decade, computer science has made progress towards extracting body pose from single camera photographs or videos. This promises to enable movement science to detect disease, quantify movement performance, and take the science out of the lab into the real world. However, current pose…

This study aims to validate the Fuze system (SwiftMotion, CA, USA), against the gold standard for motion capture, a 3D infra-red motion capture system (Vicon Nexus, Oxford, UK). Fuze system uses inertial measurement units and proprietary algorithms to calculate position and orientation of each body segment Six subjects…

Assessment of repetitive movements (e.g., finger tapping) is a hallmark of motor examinations in several neurologic populations. These assessments are traditionally performed by a human rater via visual inspection; however, advances in computer vision offer potential for remote, quantitative assessment using simple…

With the increasing acquisition of large-scale neural recordings comes the challenge of inferring the computations they perform and understanding how these give rise to behavior. Here, we review emerging conceptual and technological advances that begin to address this challenge, garnering insights from both biological…

There is significant clinical evidence showing that creative and expressive movement processes involved in dance/movement therapy (DMT) enhance psycho-social well-being. Yet, because movement is a complex phenomenon, statistically validating which aspects of movement change during interventions or lead to significant…

While interest in using wearable sensors to measure infant leg movement is increasing, attention should be paid to the characteristics of the sensors. Specifically, offset error in the measurement of gravitational acceleration (g) is common among commercially available sensors. In this brief report, we demonstrate how…

There is an increasing trend in using inertial measurement units (IMUs) to estimate movement quality and quantity, and infer the nature of motor behavior. The current literature contains several attempts to estimate movement smoothness using data from IMUs, most of which assume that the translational and rotational…

Movement variability is defined as the variations that occur in motor performance across multiple repetitions of a task and such behaviour is an inherent feature within and between each persons' movement. Quantifying movement variability is still an open problem, particularly when traditional methods in time domain and…

In recent years, there has been growing interest regarding the impact of human movement quality on health. However, assessing movement quality outside of laboratories or clinics remains challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the capabilities of consumer-grade wearables to assess movement quality and to consider…

'Russell T. Baker'] Abstract— Recent advances in data analytics and computer-aided diagnostics stimulate the vision of patient-centric precision healthcare, where treatment plans are customized based on the health records and needs of every patient. In physical rehabilitation, the progress in machine learning and the…

'Kelly A. Mackintosh'] Background Movement quality is typically assessed by drawing comparisons against predetermined movement standards. Movements are often discretely scored or labelled against pre-set criteria, though movement quality can also be evaluated using motion-related measurements (e.g., spatio-temporal…

The ultimate goal of any upper-limb neurorehabilitation procedure is to improve upper-limb functioning in daily life. While clinic-based assessments provide an assessment of what a patient can do, they do not completely reflect what a patient does in his/her daily life. The use of compensatory strategies such as the…

The ultimate goal of any upper-limb neurorehabilitation procedure is to improve upper-limb functioning in daily life. While clinic-based assessments provide an assessment of what a patient can do, they do not completely reflect what a patient does in his/her daily life. The compensatory use of the less affected…

'Niklas Karvonen' 'Kåre Synnes'] This article presents a study on analyzing body movements by using a single accelerometer sensor. The investigated categories of body movements belong to the Laban Effort Framework: Strong-Light, Free-Bound and Sudden-Sustained. All body movements were represented by a set of activities…

The raising availability of 3D cameras and dramatic improvement of computer vision algorithms in the recent decade, accelerated the research of automatic movement assessment solutions. Such solutions can be implemented at home, using affordable equipment and dedicated software. In this paper, we divide the movement…

—Interfacing a kinetic action of a person to an action of a machine system is an important research topic in many application areas. One of the key factors for intimate human-machine interaction is the ability of the control algorithm to detect and classify different user commands with shortest possible latency, thus…

Supramolecular transition metal catalysts with tailored reaction environments allow for the usage of abundant 3d metals as catalytic centres, leading to more sustainable chemical processes. However, such catalysts are large and flexible systems with intricate interactions, resulting in complex reaction coordinates. To…

We propose a generic, modular framework for emission event detection, localization, and quantification on oil and gas production sites that uses concentration data collected by pointin-space continuous monitoring systems (CMS). The framework uses a gradient-based spike detection algorithm to estimate emission start and…

The two key parameters extracted from Mössbauer spectroscopy, the isomer shift and the quadrupole splitting, have well-known temperature dependencies. While the values’ increase or decrease with sample temperature have long been established, the microscopic origins are less clear. For quantum chemical calculations –…

In zero-gap CO2 electrolyzers, maintaining the balance of water and cations is crucial. Excessive accumulation at the cathode causes performance degradation, leading to flooding and salt precipitation. Using operando wide-angle X-ray scattering and X-ray fluorescence techniques, we observed the dynamic evolution of H2O…
