Developing Normative Gait Cycle Parameters for Clinical Analysis Using Human Pose Estimation

Developing Normative Gait Cycle Parameters for Clinical Analysis Using Human Pose Estimation

arXiv:2411.13716v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gait analysis using computer vision is an emerging field in AI, offering clinicians an objective, multi-feature approach to analyse complex movements. Despite its promise, current applications using RGB video data alone are limited in measuring clinically relevant spatial and temporal kinematics and establishing normative parameters essential for identifying movement abnormalities within a gait cycle. This paper presents a data-driven method using RGB video data and 2D human pose estimation for developing normative kinematic gait parameters. By analysing joint angles, an established kinematic measure in biomechanics and clinical practice, we aim to enhance gait analysis capabilities…

Publishing my Tool

I wanted to share my experience of publishing the package to NPM. This blog post details the process, challenges, and lessons learned during the release. Choosing the Package Registry For DialectMorph, I chose to publish on NPM (Node Package Manager) as our primary package registry. The decision was influenced by: NPM's widespread adoption in the JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem Excellent integration with both Node.js and Bun Robust documentation and community support Built-in versioning and dependency management Release Process 1. Package Preparation First, I had to prepare the package for NPM publication. This involved: { "name": "dialect-morph", "version": "1.0.0", "bin": { "dialectMorph": "./dist/index.js…

Fine-Grained Detection of Solidarity for Women and Migrants in 155 Years of German Parliamentary Debates

Fine-Grained Detection of Solidarity for Women and Migrants in 155 Years of German Parliamentary Debates

[Submitted on 9 Oct 2022 (v1), last revised 21 Nov 2024 (this version, v3)] View a PDF of the paper titled Fine-Grained Detection of Solidarity for Women and Migrants in 155 Years of German Parliamentary Debates, by Aida Kostikova and 5 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Solidarity is a crucial concept to understand social relations in societies. In this paper, we explore fine-grained solidarity frames to study solidarity towards women and migrants in German parliamentary debates between 1867 and 2022. Using 2,864 manually annotated text snippets (with a cost exceeding 18k Euro), we evaluate large language models (LLMs) like…

Pushing the Limits of Sparsity: A Bag of Tricks for Extreme Pruning

Pushing the Limits of Sparsity: A Bag of Tricks for Extreme Pruning

[Submitted on 20 Nov 2024 (v1), last revised 21 Nov 2024 (this version, v2)] View a PDF of the paper titled Pushing the Limits of Sparsity: A Bag of Tricks for Extreme Pruning, by Andy Li and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Pruning of deep neural networks has been an effective technique for reducing model size while preserving most of the performance of dense networks, crucial for deploying models on memory and power-constrained devices. While recent sparse learning methods have shown promising performance up to moderate sparsity levels such as 95% and 98%, accuracy quickly deteriorates when pushing…

Knowledge Graphs, Large Language Models, and Hallucinations: An NLP Perspective

Knowledge Graphs, Large Language Models, and Hallucinations: An NLP Perspective

arXiv:2411.14258v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized Natural Language Processing (NLP) based applications including automated text generation, question answering, chatbots, and others. However, they face a significant challenge: hallucinations, where models produce plausible-sounding but factually incorrect responses. This undermines trust and limits the applicability of LLMs in different domains. Knowledge Graphs (KGs), on the other hand, provide a structured collection of interconnected facts represented as entities (nodes) and their relationships (edges). In recent research, KGs have been leveraged to provide context that can fill gaps in an LLM understanding of certain topics offering a promising approach…

Overwatch’s new hero is Hazard, the spiky Scotsman you’ve been waiting for

Overwatch’s new hero is Hazard, the spiky Scotsman you’ve been waiting for

Overwatch 2’s newest hero is a tank with surprising mobility and brutal diving and brawling tactics. Hazard has a punk-rock aesthetic, Scottish brogue and a shotgun that can blast your vulnerable backline heroes to smithereens. But don’t be put off by his tough exterior: This anti-establishment rapscallion has a steadfast belief in bodily autonomy and a love of cute puppies.Playable during a limited-time trial, Hazard was initially conceived as a daunting cyberpunk villain called Spiker. But after Blizzard’s designers showcased their hulking scoundrel to the development team, it became clear he was destined to evolve into a charming rebel with…

Finding the Way: Backtracking Algorithm for Rat in a Maze

Finding the Way: Backtracking Algorithm for Rat in a Maze

Introduction Imagine a rat searching for cheese in a complex maze. Every path looks promising until it hits a dead end. How can it systematically explore every route without missing any possible solution? This is where the Backtracking Algorithm comes in, a powerful tool for solving intricate puzzles and real-world problems. Backtracking is a recursive algorithmic technique that incrementally builds solutions and abandons paths that don’t lead to a valid solution. Its significance lies in its simplicity and versatility, making it applicable in fields like AI, robotics, and optimization. In this blog, we’ll dive into how backtracking works, explore its…

Uncertainty-Guided Alignment for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation in Regression

Uncertainty-Guided Alignment for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation in Regression

[Submitted on 24 Jan 2024 (v1), last revised 21 Nov 2024 (this version, v3)] View a PDF of the paper titled Uncertainty-Guided Alignment for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation in Regression, by Ismail Nejjar and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Regression (UDAR) aims to adapt models from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain for regression tasks. Traditional feature alignment methods, successful in classification, often prove ineffective for regression due to the correlated nature of regression features. To address this challenge, we propose Uncertainty-Guided Alignment (UGA), a novel method that integrates predictive uncertainty into…
