In this paper we describe a method of automatic motion tracking of a person in a sequence of video frames. The method is suitable for tracking a person walking or running in a surveillance video captured from a single still camera. The... more
Purpose: The Purpose of this study was to investigate ball velocity of instep and inside foot kicks of university level soccer players. Method: The participants sample consisted twenty university soccer players from Fiji National... more
— In this paper, the accuracy evaluation of the Kinect v2 sensor is investigated in a rehabilitation scenario. The accuracy analysis is provided in terms of joint positions and angles during dynamic postures used in low-back pain... more
In recent years, the availability of inexpensive depth cameras, such as the Microsoft Kinect, has boosted the research in monocular full body skeletal pose tracking. Unfortunately , existing trackers often fail to capture poses where a... more
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of weight cutting and 18 hours rehydration in wrestlers' techniques performance. Methods: twenty-five men elite wrestlers participated in study, they randomly are divided into: group A... more
This article deals with the philosophical idea of worldmaking pursued through techné, meaning the fusion of the technical means of artistic creation, theorizing, and analysis, but specifically occurring in a feedback loop involving... more
Human Motion Analysis (HMA) is currently one of the most popularly active research domains as such significant research interests are motivated by a number of real world applications such as video surveillance, sports analysis, healthcare... more
This paper describes a first principles approach to understanding how 3D digital animation of human motion can be processed and produced from raw data, without the use of proprietary software. The paper describes how students collected... more
The field of interactive music systems (IMSs), beginning in the 1980s, is still relatively young and fast moving. The field of music theory-analysis, during the same period (since 1980), has undergone a major transformation in terms of... more
Harvesting electrical energy from various human motions using piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEH) is gaining research attention in recent years. The energy harvested could potentially power hand held electronic devices and medical... more
Although several studies have used wearable sensors to analyze human lifting, this has generally only been done in a limited manner. In this proof-of-concept study, we investigate multiple aspects of offline lift characterization using... more
Human motion analysis via computer vision is an important aspect in a wide range of application; ranging from human-computer interaction (HCI) to ergonomics and biomechanics. This paper presents an overview of all processes involved in... more
The effect of user experience on user satisfaction metrics in using MYO armband (hand gesture navigation) to control interactive maps and various other applications is still in a research state. In general, usability can be measured in... more
Digital Movement addresses the evolving ways in which movement and its technological mediation can inform creative thinking and embodied practices. In order to identify unique cross-disciplinary links within human movement research this... more
Background: Gait and balance deficits are reported in adults with HIV infection and are associated with reduced quality of life. Current research suggests an increased fall-incidence in this population, with fall rates among middle-aged... more
The purpose of this study was to investigate, in 3-Dimensional (3D) space, the differences in lower limb kinematics between land-based walking (WL) and aquatic-based (WA). Twenty six male subjects (58 ± 5 years, 1.68 ± 0.50 m and 70.8 ±... more
This paper presents a novel view independent approach on silhouette based human motion analysis for gait recognition applications. Spatio-temporal 1-D signals based on the differences between the outer of binarized silhouette of a motion... more
Rapid weight loss and weight cutting are two widely used methods to reach competition weight; Sauna and dehydration as well as sweating through physical activity are very common. Many athletes with specific weight classifications such as... more
Research in the video surveillance is gaining more popularity due to its widespread applications as well as social impact. In this paper, we present an intelligent framework for detection of multiple events in surveillance videos. Based... more
This paper proposes a fuzzy qualitative approach to vision-based human motion analysis with an emphasis on human motion recognition. It achieves feasible computational cost for hu- man motion recognition by combining fuzzy qualitative... more
