Nonparametric identification of time-varying human joint admittance

In this study, a nonparametric method, developed in Lataire et al. (2012), is applied to the identification of linear time-varying human joint admittance. The aim of the method, denoted Skirt Decomposition method, is to reconstruct the time-varying system function. The main contribution of the paper is to evaluate the possibilities and...

A sensitivity analysis of an inverted pendulum balance control model

Balance control models are used to describe balance behavior in health and disease. We identified the unique contribution and relative importance of each parameter of a commonly used balance control model, the Independent Channel (IC) model, to identify which parameters are crucial to describe balance behavior. The balance behavior was expressed...
