Framework for Individualized Dynamical Modeling of Human Motion

Ruzena Bajcsy

Abstract: We are developing individualized musculoskeletal models to model movement dynamics based on non-invasive, multi-modal measurements (e.g., motion capture, accelerometry, EMG). The models are aimed to provide information on kinematic constraints and dynamic parameters relating to exerted forces and torques during a movement. Furthermore, we are developing automatic segmentation methods that partition continuous movement into motion primitives.
