To enable the elderly and non-ambulatory gait-impaired patients, the repetitive practice of this task, a novel gait training robot(GTR) was designed followed the end-effector principle, and an active partial body weight support(PBWS) system was introduced to facilitate successful gait training. For successful establishment of a walking gait on the GTR with PBWS, the motion laws of the GTR were planned to enable the phase distribution relationships of the cycle step, and the center of gravity(COG) trajectory of the human body during gait training on the GTR was measured. A coordinated control strategy was proposed based on the impedance control principle. A robotic prototype was developed as a platform for evaluating the design concepts and control strategies. Preliminary gait training with a healthy subject was implemented by the robotic-assisted gait training system and the experimental results are encouraging.展开更多

This study aimed to elucidate the changes of cortical blood flow in seven elderly patients with post-stroke hemiplegia before and after body weight support treadmill training by semi-quantitative analysis of regional cerebral blood flow assessed by single photon emission computed tomography. Body weight support treadmill training for 6 months was effective in improving cerebral blood flow and promoting the walking speed and balance recovery in elderly patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.展开更多

According to the requirement of real applications, the needed data analysis should be different. In previous mining approaches, after mining the sequential patterns, sequential patterns with the weak affinity are found even with a high minimum support. In this paper, a new framework is suggested for mining weighted support affinity patterns in which an objective measure, sequential ws-confidence is developed to detect correlated sequential patterns with weighted support affinity patterns. To efficiently prune the weak affinity patterns, it is proved that ws-confidence measure satisfies the anti-monotone and cross weighted support properties which can be applied to eliminate sequential patterns with dissimilar weighted support levels. Based on the framework, a weighted support affinity pattern mining algorithm (WSMiner) is suggested. The performance study shows that WSMiner is efficient and scalable for mining weighted support affinity patterns.展开更多

Existing approaches include directly modelling clinical outcomeby defining the optimal treatment rule according to the interactions between treatment andcovariates and outcome weighted approach that uses clinical outcome as weights to maximise atarget function whose value directly reflects correct treatment assignment. All existing articles ofestimating individualised treatment rules are all assuming just two treatment assignments. Herewe propose an outcome weighted learning approach that uses a vector hinge loss to extend estimating individualised treatment rules in multi-category treatments case. The consistency of theresulting estimator is shown. We also demonstrate the performance of our approach in simulationstudies and a real data analysis.展开更多
