Evaluating the Impact of External Perturbations on Human Gait Dynamics Using Entropy Measures

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The primary objective of this study was to determine and compare multiscale entropy values for gait data representing sagittal-plane joint angles of the lower limb and pelvis, recorded in the CAREN Extended environment under three conditions: in the presence of audio-visual disturbances, mechanical perturbations, and without disturbances. The research group consisted of 14 young women. The findings demonstrated that multiscale entropy measures effectively distinguish gait with mechanical perturbations from natural gait and gait with mild audio-visual disturbances. A statistical analysis of the computed results was performed, including an assessment of the effect size of the observed differences.
