Toward an objective assessment of mobility in clinical and daily activity settings

Arash Atrsaei

Quantification of mobility is the key to monitor the progression of mobility disorders as well as the effect of an intervention. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) with dedicated algorithms can quantify postural transitions and gait as the two key aspects o ...

Increasing Superstructure Optimization Capacity Through Self-Learning Surrogate Models

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Julia Granacher

Simulation-based optimization models are widely applied to find optimal operating conditions of processes. Often, computational challenges arise from model complexity, making the generation of reliable design solutions difficult. We propose an algorithm fo ...

Multidimensional Measures of Physical Activity and Their Association with Gross Motor Capacity in Children and Adolescents with Cerebral Palsy

Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff, Stéphane Armand

The current lack of adapted performance metrics leads clinicians to focus on what children with cerebral palsy (CP) do in a clinical setting, despite the ongoing debate on whether capacity (what they do at best) adequately reflects performance (what they d ...

SwarmLab: a MATLAB Drone Swarm Simulator

Dario Floreano, Enrica Soria, Fabrizio Schiano

Among the available solutions for drone swarm simulations, we identified a lack of simulation frameworks that allow easy algorithms prototyping, tuning, debugging and performance analysis. Moreover, users who want to dive in the research field of drone swa ...
