Support Vector Machines (SVMs) Based Framework for Classification of Fallers and Non-Fallers
… and falls among elderly participants using wearable inertial sensors was investigated. As such, the aim of this study is to investigate the critical gait and postural parameters contributing to falls, then further to classify fallers and non-fallers by utilizing gait and postural parameters …

Striding towards fewer falls: quantifying gait from flat and stair terrains to predict falls in older adults
… suffer from a range of limitations. The use of wearable inertial sensors (IMUs) to quantitatively assess gait and predict falls can help fill these gaps. The aims of this research were focused on exploring the utility of sensor-based gait analysis on different terrains for predicting falls, …

Rehabilitation Engineering in Parkinson's disease
… 2) develop and validate a protocol, using wearable inertial sensors, to measure postural sway and postural transitions prior to step initiation; 3) find quantitative measures sensitive to impairments of postural control in early stages of PD and quantitative biomarkers of disease …
