This article presents a control algorithm framework with which a bipedal robot can perform a variety of gaits by only modifying a small set of control parameters. The controller drives a number of variables, called non-emergent variables, to their desired ...

Effects of repeated waist-pull perturbations on gait stability in subjects with cerebellar ataxia

Silvestro Micera

Background: Damage to the cerebellum can affect neural structures involved in locomotion, causing gait and balance disorders. However, the integrity of cerebellum does not seem to be critical in managing sudden and unexpected environmental changes such as ...

Instrumented shoes for daily activity monitoring in healthy and at risk populations

Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Daily activity reflects the health status of an individual. Ageing and disease drastically affect all dimensions of mobility, from the number of active bouts to their duration and intensity. Performing less activity leads to muscle deterioration and furthe ...

Synthesis and Optimization of Pipelines for HW Implementations of Dataflow Programs

Marco Mattavelli, Endri Bezati, Ab Al Hadi Bin Ab Rahman, Anatoly Prihozhy

This paper introduces a new methodology for pipeline synthesis with applications to data flow high-level system design. The pipeline synthesis is applied to dataflow programs whose operators are translated into graphs and dependencies relations that are th ...

Modeling of Reconfigurable Medical Ultrasonic Applications in BIP

Alena Simalatsar, Stefanos Skalistis

Medical ultrasonic imaging applications require high quality of images produced in real-time often with limited resources available. Deadlock-freedom and confluency must be guaranteed to insure the correctness of the applications, while feasibility and opt ...

Gait Analysis Using Shoe-worn Inertial Sensors: How is foot clearance related to walking speed?

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Benoît Mariani

Spatiotemporal gait analysis with body worn inertial sensors improves diagnosis in clinical practice. Most of the gait performance measures are affected by walking speed. However, it has not been investigated that how much information foot clearance parame ...

Virtual Ways: Low-Cost Coherence for Instruction Set Extensions with Architecturally Visible Storage

Edoardo Charbon, Paolo Ienne, Ties Jan Henderikus Kluter, Samuel Burri, Philip Brisk

Instruction set extensions (ISEs) improve the performance and energy consumption of application-specific processors. ISEs can use architecturally visible storage (AVS), localized compiler-controlled memories, to provide higher I/O bandwidth than reading da ...
