Machine learning-based gait adaptation dysfunction identification using CMill-based gait data.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Combining machine learning (ML) with gait analysis is widely applicable for diagnosing abnormal gait patterns.

Objective

To analyze gait adaptability characteristics in stroke patients, develop ML models to identify individuals with GAD, and select optimal diagnostic models and key classification features.

Methods

This study was investigated with 30 stroke patients (mean age 42.69 years, 60% male) and 50 healthy adults (mean age 41.34 years, 58% male). Gait adaptability was assessed using a CMill treadmill on gait adaptation tasks: target stepping, slalom walking, obstacle avoidance, and speed adaptation. The preliminary analysis of variables in both groups was conducted using t-tests and Pearson correlation. Features were extracted from demographics, gait
