Robust deep learning-based gait event detection across various pathologies.

ABSTRACT: The correct estimation of gait events is essential for the interpretation and calculation of 3D gait analysis (3DGA) data. Depending on the severity of the underlying pathology and the availability of force plates, gait events can be set either manually by trained clinicians or detected by automated event detection algorithms. The downside of manually estimated events is the tedious and time-intensive work which leads to subjective assessments. For automated event detection algorithms, the drawback is, that there is no standardized method available. Algorithms show varying robustness and accuracy on different pathologies and are often dependent on setup or pathology-specific thresholds. In this paper, we aim at closing this gap by introducing a novel deep learning-based gait event detectio
