Research topics from publications: The Lower Limbs Kinematics Analysis by Wearable Sensor Shoes. Representative work: Inertial sensors designed for wearable devices in lower limbs need to be calibrated with complicated steps before measurements, and the attachments of body also influence the normal motion and bring measurement errors caused by relative movements. This paper proposes a method using ground reaction forces (GRFs) and moments measured by a pair of wearable sensor shoes to estimate the joint angles of lower limbs for gait analysis. The wearable sensor shoes are combined with motion sensors to construct a wearable gait analysis system in our previous research. Based on the reliable measurements of the wearable system, neural networks are trained with GRFs or GRFs and moments as an input, and the
