Markerless motion capture allows whole-body movements to be captured without the need for physical markers to be placed on the body. This enables motion capture analyses to be conducted in more ecologically valid environments. However, the influences of varied clothing on video-based markerless motion capture assessments remain largely unexplored. This study investigated two types of clothing conditions, "Sport" (gym shirt and shorts) and "Street" (unrestricted casual clothing), on gait parameters during overground walking by 29 participants at self-selected speeds using markerless motion capture. Segment lengths, gait spatiotemporal parameters, and lower-limb kinematics were compared between the two clothing conditions. Mean differences in segment length for the forearm, upper arm, thigh, and shank between clothing conditions ranged from 0.2 cm for the forearm to 0.9 cm for the thigh (p < 0.05 for thigh and shank) but below typical marker placement errors (1 - 2 cm). Seven out of 9 gait spatiotemporal parameters demonstrated statistically significant differences between clothing conditions (p < 0.05), however, these differences were approximately ten times smaller than minimal detectable changes in movement-related pathologies including multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. Hip, knee, and ankle joint angle root-mean-square deviation values averaged 2.6° and were comparable to previously reported average inter-session variability for this markerless system (2.8°). The results indicate that clothing, a potential limiting factor in markerless motion capture performance, would negligibly alter meaningful clinical interpretations under the conditions investigated.

Gait initiation (GI), the transient phase between orthograde posture and steady-state locomotion, is a functional task and an experimental paradigm that is classically used in the literature to obtain insight into the basic postural mechanisms underlying body motion and balance control. Investigating GI has also contributed to a better understanding of the physiopathology of postural disorders in elderly and neurological participants (e.g. Read More

Identifying Signatures of Perceived Interpersonal Synchrony.

Department of Communication, Michigan State University, East Lansing, USA.

Interpersonal synchrony serves as a subtle, yet powerful bonding mechanism in social interactions. Problematically, the term 'synchrony' has been used to label a variety of distinct aspects of interpersonal coordination, such as postural similarities or movement activity entrainment. Accordingly, different algorithms have been suggested to quantify interpersonal synchrony. Read More

Deep learning is to learn the inherent laws and representation levels of sample data. The information obtained during these learning processes is of great help in the interpretation of data such as text, images, and sounds. Through the deep learning method, the image features are learned independently, and feature extraction is realized, which greatly simplifies the feature extraction process. Read More

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the algorithm DeepLabCut (DLC) against a 3D motion capture system (Vicon Motion Systems Ltd) in the analysis of lumbar and elbow flexion-extension movements. Data were acquired concurrently and tracked using DLC and Vicon. A novel DLC model was trained using video data derived from a subset of participants (training group). Read More

Background And Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for a number of neurological diseases, especially for the advanced stage of Parkinson's disease (PD). Objective assessment of patients' motor symptoms is crucial for accurate electrode targeting and treatment. Existing approaches suffer from subjective variability or interference with voluntary motion. Read More
