Minimum number of inertial measurement units needed to identify signiicant variations in walk patterns of overweight individuals walking on irregular surfaces by Sikandar, Tasriva, Rabbi, Mohammad Fazle, Kamarul Hawari, Ghazali, Altwijri, Omar, Almijalli, Mohammed, Ahamed, Nizam Uddin

“…Our results revealed two combinations of body locations, including the thigh and shank (i.e., the left and right shank, and the right thigh and right shank), from which IMU data should be collected to accurately classify walking patterns over real-world irregular surfaces (with classification accuracies of 97.24 and 95.87%, respectively). Our findings suggest that the identified numbers and locations of IMUs could potentially reduce the amount of data recorded and processed to develop a fall prevention system for overweight individuals.…”
