Resumo(s): | Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to propose a gait analysis technique that aims to identify differences and similarities in gait performance between three different assistive devices (ADs).Design/methodology/approach - Two feature reduction techniques, linear principal component analysis (PCA) and nonlinear kernel-PCA (KPCA), are expanded to provide a comparison of the spatiotemporal, symmetrical indexes and postural control parameters among the three different ADs. Then, a multiclass support vector machine (MSVM) with different approaches is designed to evaluate the potential of PCA and KPCA to extract relevant gait features that can differentiate between ADs.Findings - Results demonstrated that symmetrical indexes and postural control parameters are better suited to provide useful information about the different gait patterns that total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients present when walking with different ADs. The combination of KPCA and MSVM with discriminant functions (MSVM DF) resulted in a noticeably improved performance. Such combination demonstrated that, with symmetric indexes and postural control parameters, it is possible to extract with high-accuracy nonlinear gait features for automatic classification of gait patterns with ADs.Originality/value - The information obtained with the proposed technique could be used to identify benefits and limitations of ADs on the rehabilitation process and to evaluate the benefit of their use in TKA patients. |
