Description

This study evaluates whether 3D human gait kinetics can be accurately predicted outside a laboratory setting. The core hypothesis is that wearable linear acceleration data (3 DoF), combined with artificial neural networks (LSTM and MLP), can successfully estimate clinically relevant parameters without the need for resource-intensive camera systems and force plates. The repository contains anonymized time-series datasets from 32 healthy subjects alongside the Python pre-processing pipelines. The 'ReadMe.txt' file explains the scripts and the overall data structure.
