Intelligent Gait Assistive Technologies Gait Biomechanics and Machine Learning Applications in Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention

Langue : Anglais

Auteurs :

Intelligent Gait Assistive Technologies: Gait Biomechanics and Machine Learning Applications in Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention brings together contemporary research and applications to show how gait biomechanics combined with machine learning can be used to develop techniques to provide safer, more mechanically efficient locomotion to individuals with significant visual, musculoskeletal, or neurological deficits. Developments in gait rehabilitation and injury prevention outlined in this book will contribute to improved quality of life for individuals with gait-related impairments, with a major contribution to medical cost savings due to reduction in falls. Researchers, engineers, and students in biomedical engineering and biomechanics will find this a welcomed reference in better understanding the role of machine learning and intelligent technologies in the advancement of gait rehabilitation and injury reduction to both impaired and healthy individuals.

Rezaul Begg is chair in Assistive Technologies within the Program in Assistive Technology Innovation (PATI) at Victoria University. He leads a multidisciplinary “Gait and Intelligent Technologies” research group focused on technologies with application to both unimpaired and pathological gait. He uses a combination of engineering and biomechanical principles to understand and diagnose locomotion-related deficits, and to provide intelligent technology solutions to improving walking efficiency and safety. Professor Begg has published five books and over 300 refereed papers in scientific journals and conferences proceedings. He is associate editor of Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, and an editorial board member of the Journal of Biomechanics and Sensors. He has received several Best Paper awards in conferences, the Victoria University Vice Chancellor’s citation award for Excellence in Research, a Gold Medal from BUET and Chancellor’s Prize from Bangladesh Government for Academic Excellence.
Hanatsu Nagano specializes in gait biomechanics with special focus on application for practical interventions. He invented the special shoe-insole that reduces tripping, falls, and improves dynamic balance, which was awarded ‘Most Innovative New Care Product in the World’ for the three consecutive years. He is experienced in working closely with industry-leading research & development projects including regenerative medical technology, management of knee osteoarthritis, wearable sensor application, artificial intelligence, exercise intervention, and active exoskeletons. His entrepreneurship and business communication skills have successfully established various international academia-industry-government collaborations. He sets his current missions in developing smart footwear for safe walking, inventing regenerative technology integrated knee orthosis, coordinating health enhancing intervention programs for government-leading initiatives, establishing further syne
