This study is the quasi-experimental study on the gait training rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to prepare the baseline data for most suitable of gait while we were scrutinizing how the walking characters, functional walking ability, gait quality of stroke patients were affected by the gait on BWSTT (Body Weight Supported Treadmill Training) through the change of treadmill velocity and body weight support. To accomplish this purpose, this study used thirty subjects, more than 3 months post stroke, for rehabilitation who were divided between two gait training groups they received the neurophysiological physical therapy. For 6 weeks, 5 times a week for 15 minutes per session, the BWSTT group participated in 30 sessions structured speed-dependent treadmill training with 30% body weight supported, and the ratio of body weight support was gradually decreased as the patients advanced the capability of more self-support. The OGT(Over Ground Training) group received the same quantity of equal sessions like BWSTT. Firstly, we measured the absolute improvement of walking velocity (m/s), capacity(min/m) and cadence(steps/min) among walking characters. Secondly, we measured the functional walking ability such as Functional Ambulatory Category(FAC, score out of 5), Modified Motor Assesment Scale(MMAS, score out of 6) and Gait Quality Chart(score out of 41). Data analysis was performed with using SPSS 10.0 win program. The descriptive analysis was used to obtain average and standard deviation. The independent t-test and the paired t-test were used to compare both the groups about pre and post training test. Treatment effects were established by pre and post assessment. Subjects tolerated the training well without side-effects. Therefore, the results of this study were as follows; 1. There was a more significant difference from the improvement of walking velocity(0.09m/s), endurance(4.53min/m), cadence(4.20steps/min), FAC(0.26score), MMAS(0.33 score) and hip joint and pelvic of gait quality(0.39 score) ever before in the BWSTT group(p<.05). 2. There was a more significant increase from the walking velocity(0.01m/s) in the OGT group(p<.05). 3. There was a more statistical significant increase from comparing the average of walking velocity in both groups ever before(0.42m/s in BWSTT group and 0.31m/s in OGT group)(p<.05). There was a statistical significant difference from the average of cadence in both groups(61.87step/min in BWSTT group and 3.60steps/min in OGT group)(p<.05). As we can see from above, the findings suggest that BWSTT may be more effective than the OGT for improving some gait parameters such as gait velocity and cadency. This conclusion also suggest that BWSTT is more effective for the improvement of gait of stroke patients.

본 논문에서는 걸음걸이 실루엣 영상을 이용한 걸음걸이 인식 방법을 제안한다. 걸음걸이 특징 정보는 걸음걸이의 방향 변화에 많은 영향을 받는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 평면 호모그래피를 이용하여 실루엣을 고유시점으로 재구성함으로써 방향변화의 영향을 줄이고자 한다. 이때, 평면 호모그래피는 카메라 보정과 같은 복잡한 계산과정 없이 걸음걸이 시퀀스 정보만을 이용하여 추정된다. 동일인의 걸음걸이 실루엣이라 하더라도 배경 제거시의 에러 등으로 인해 공통적인 특성에서 벗어나는 영역이 존재한다. 각 개인의 동일 특성에서 벗어나는 특성을 분석하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 주성분 분석 기법을 사용한다. 그러나 일반적인 패턴 분류에 적용되는 주성분 분석 기법과는 달리 본 논문에서는 공통적인 특성에서 벗어나는 정도의 판단과 그에 따르는 가중치 부여 기준으로써 사용한다. 실험결과 제안하는 걸음걸이 인식 기법은 걸음걸이 방향 변화에 강인하고, 분별력을 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Purpose: The aim of this research was to verify the relationship between three-dimensional (3D) ground reaction force (GRF) and severity of leg length discrepancy (LLD) while walking at a normal speed. It used a 3D motion analysis system with force platforms in standing workers with LLD. Methods: Subjects comprising 45 standing workers with LLD were selected. Two force platforms were used to acquire 3D GRF data based on a motion analysis system during gait. Vicon Nexus and Visual3D v6 Professional software were used to analyze kinetic GRF data. The subjects were asked to walk on a walkway with 40 infrared reflective markers attached to their lower extremities to collect 3D GRF data. Results: The results indicated the maximal force in the posterior and lateral direction of the long limb occurring in the early stance phase during gait had significant positive correlation with LLD severity (r = 0.664~0.738, p <0.01). In addition, the maximal force medial direction of the long limb occurring in the late stance phase showed a highly positive correlation with the LLD measurement (r = 0.527, p <0.01). Conclusion: Our results indicate that greater measured LLD severity results in more plantar pressure occurring in the foot area during heel contact to loading response of the stance phase and the stance push-off period during gait.

Purpose: This study was done to establish reference data for temporo-spatial, kinematic and kinetic parameters for normal Koreans as they age. Methods: Normal adults and children without a previous history of musculoskeletal problems were enrolled in this study. The normal subjects were divided by age into three groups: Group I: children ($11.95{\pm}0.29$ years); Group II: young adults ($23.90{\pm}3.67$ years); Group III: older adults ($71.40{\pm}4.08$ years). The temporo-spatial and kinematic data were measured using 6 MX3 cameras while each subject walked through a 10 m walkway at a self-selected speed. The kinetic data were measured using 2 force plates and were calculated by inverse dynamics. Results: Motion patterns are typically associated with a specific phase of the gait cycle. Our results were as follows: 1. There were significant differences between the different age groups in temporo-spatial parameters such as cadence, double support, time of foot off, stride length, step length, and walking speed. 2. There were significant differences between the groups in kinematic parameters such as range of motion (ROM) of the hip, knee and ankle in the sagittal plane, ROM of the pelvis, hip and knee in the coronal plane and ROM of the pelvis, hip and ankle in the transverse plane. 3. There were significant differences between the groups in kinetic parameters such as joint moments of force, joint mechanical power generation or absorption and ground reaction forces. Conclusion: The results of this study can be utilized (a) as a reference for kinematic and kinetic data of gait analysis in normal Koreans, and (b) as an aide in evaluating and treating patients who have problems relating to gait.

웨어러블 기기에서 측정되는 사용자의 걸음걸이로 인한 가속도 신호를 인증 기술에 적용하는 연구결과들이 최근에 발표되고 있다. 현재까지 발표된 걸음걸이 가속도 신호 기반의 인증 기술들은 공격자가 사용자의 몸에 직접 가속도 센서를 부착하는 방식으로만 사용자의 걸음걸이 가속도 신호를 얻을 수 있다고 가정해왔다. 그리고 걸음걸이 가속도 신호 기반의 인증 기술에 대한 실질적인 공격방법으로는 걸음걸이 모방공격이 존재하고, 공격대상과 신체조건이 유사한 사람을 이용하거나 공격대상의 걸음걸이를 촬영한 비디오를 통해서 걸음걸이 특징을 파악하는 방법을 사용해왔다. 그러나 모방공격은 효과적이지 않을 뿐 아니라, 공격 성공률 또한 매우 낮기 때문에 심각한 위협으로 받아들여지지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 걸음걸이 가속도 신호 기반의 인증 기술에 대한 새로운 공격 방법으로 Video Gait 공격을 제안한다. 사용자 걸음걸이 비디오 신호로부터 웨어러블 기기의 위치를 확인하고, 위치 값을 동역학적 방정식에 대입하여 사용자 걸음걸이 가속도 신호와 매우 유사한 신호를 생성할 수 있다. 8명의 피 실험자로부터 수집한 걸음걸이 비디오와 가속도 신호를 이용하여 유사도를 비교한 결과를 보여준다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of height of shoe lifts on gait and balance in hemiplegic patients. Twenty-two hemiplegic patients who were receiving rehabilitation treatment at Hanyang University Seoul Hospital and National Rehabilitation Center participated in this study from November 8, 2002 through March 20, 2003. Data analysis using repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni method, for a post-test. The results of this study were as follows : First, shoe lift on the height of 3mm, 6mm, 9mm, 12mm significantly improved, as compared to un-lift status, in gait velocity, PCI, weight bearing(p<0.05). Second, gait velocity was significantly difference between 3mm and 9mm, and between 3mm and 12mm, and weight bearing on the affected side was significantly difference between 3mm and 12mm, and between 6mm and 12mm(p<0.05). Third, after the shoe lift removed was significantly improved in gait velocity, PCI, weight bearing than before shoe lifts being added(p<0.05). These results suggest that shoe lift on the unaffected side may helpful for improving the gait efficiency and symmetrically of weight bearing. Furthermore, persistence of gait efficiency and symmetrically of weight bearing after removing the shoe lift suggests carryover effect of gait training on shoe lift of unaffected side.
