Abstract:

Unilateral long-lasting vibration was applied to the sternomastoid muscle to assess the influence of asymmetric neck proprioceptive input on body orientation during stepping-in-place. Blindfolded subjects performed 3 sequences of 3 trials, each lasting 60 s: control, vibration applied during stepping (VDS), and vibration applied before stepping (VBS). VDS caused clear-cut whole body rotation toward the side opposite to vibration. The body rotated around a vertical axis placed at about arm's length from the body. The rotation did not begin immediately on switching on the vibrator. The delay var

The specific contribution of different bands to the configural processing of bodies along gender and posture dimensions, however, is still unclear.

Abstract:

We present PyroSense, the first-of-its-kind system that enables fine-grained 3D posture reconstruction using ubiquitous COTS passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor). PyroSense senses heat signals generated by the human body and airflow due to body movement to reconstruct the corresponding human postures in real time. PyroSense greatly advances the prior PIR-based sensing design by improving the sensitivity of COTS PIR sensor to body movement, increasing spatial resolution without additional deployment overhead, and designing intellectual algorithms to adapt to diverse environmental factors.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the present study, precise, animal-based biometric data on the space needed for the body dimensions of individual pigs (static space) were collected. Per batch, two groups of eight piglets each were formed after weaning (35 days old). Using three-dimensional cameras that recorded a piglets’ pen from above and newly developed software, the static space of individuals was determined over 6 weeks. The area covered by an individual increased almost linearly with increasing body weight (R2 = 0.97). At the end of rearing (25 kg body weight), an individual covered 1704 cm2 in standing posi

Abstract:

A large body of research has shown that visually induced self-motion (vection) and cognitive processing may interfere with each other. The aim of this study was to assess the interactive effects of a visual motion inducing vection (uniform motion in roll) versus a visual motion without vection (non-uniform motion) and long-term memory processing using the characteristics of standing posture (quiet stance). As the level of interference may be related to the nature of the cognitive tasks used, we examined the effect of visual motion on a memory task which requires a spatial process (episodic rec

Abstract:

A novel posture motion-based spatiotemporal fused graph convolutional network (PM-STGCN) is presented for skeleton-based action recognition. Existing methods on skeleton-based action recognition focus on independently calculating the joint information in single frame and motion information of joints between adjacent frames from the human body skeleton structure and then combine the classification results. However, that does not take into consideration of the complicated temporal and spatial relationship of the human body action sequence, so they are not very efficient in distinguishing similar

Abstract:

Physical data is an important aspect of urban data, which provides a guarantee for the healthy development of smart cities. Students’ physical health evaluation is an important part of school physical education, and postural recognition plays a significant role in physical sports. Traditional posture recognition methods are with low accuracy and high error rate due to the influence of environmental factors. Therefore, we propose a new Kinect-based posture recognition method in a physical sports training system based on urban data. First, Kinect is used to obtain the spatial coordinates of huma

Our posture shows an impact on health both mentally and physically. Various methods have been proposed in order to detect different postures of a human being. Posture analysis also plays an essential role in the field of medicine such as finding out sleeping posture of a patient. Image processing based and sensor based approach are the leading posture analysis approaches. Sensor based approach is used by numerous models to focus on posture detection in which the person needs to wear some particular devices or sensors which is helpful in cases such as fall detection.

Abstract:

An osteopathic practitioner often meets the problem of physical fatigue, which is caused by a forced posture, excessive tension of the muscles of the trunk and arms, irrational biomechanical patterns of posture and movements, lack of support points, or switching points of mechanical energy of movement (fulcrum). These factors lead together to fatigue, which is felt as weariness and prevents the development of a pathophysiological state of overwork. Prevention of overwork by an osteopathic doctor can consist of a number of measures of labor organization and ergonomics, one of which is building

Abstract:

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by degradation of the myelin sheath resulting in impaired neural communication throughout the body. As a result, most people with MS (PwMS) experience gait asymmetries between their legs leading to an increased risk of falls. Recent work indicates that split-belt treadmill adaptation, where the speed of each leg is controlled independently, can decrease gait asymmetries for other neurodegenerative impairments. The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of split-belt treadmill training to improve gait symmetry in PwMS.

Sustained attention to a body location results in enhanced processing of tactile stimuli presented at that location compared to another unattended location. In this paper, we review studies investigating the neural correlates of sustained spatial attention in touch. These studies consistently show that activity within modality-specific somatosensory areas (SI and SII) is modulated by sustained tactile-spatial attention. Recent evidence suggests that these somatosensory areas may be recruited as part of a larger cortical network,also including higher-level multimodal regions involved in spatial

Visual perspective taking is inferring how the world looks to another person. To clarify this process, we investigated whether employing a humanoid avatar as the viewpoint would facilitate an imagined perspective shift in a virtual environment, and which factor of the avatar is effective for the facilitation effect. We used a task that involved reporting how an object looks by a simple direction judgment, either from the avatar’s position or from the position of an empty chair. We found that the humanoid avatar’s presence improved task performance. Furthermore, the avatar’s facilitation effect

Abstract:

Multisensory integration enables rapid and accurate behavior. To orient in space, sensory information registered initially in different reference frames has to be integrated with the current postural information to produce an appropriate motor response. In some postures, multisensory integration requires convergence of sensory evidence across hemispheres, which would presumably lessen or hinder integration. Here, we examined orienting gaze shifts in humans to visual, tactile, or visuotactile stimuli when the hands were either in a default uncrossed posture or a crossed posture requiring conver
