Deep learning for automated movement analysis using motion capture: Case studies on detecting and assessing gait impairments in people with Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait KU Leuven
% !TeX root = ../../thesis.tex
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder, affecting an estimated 6 million people worldwide. PD causes degeneration of dopamine-generating neurons, which leads to progressively worsening gait impairments. One of the most debilitating gait impairments is freezing of gait (FOG). FOG is common in PD and is defined as a "brief, episodic absence or marked reduction of forwarding ...
A wildlife journey in space and time: methodological advancements in the assessment and analysis of spatiotemporal patterns of animal movement in a changing European Environment Ghent University
The general objective is to develop a methodology in the context of movement ecology and
geography allowing to analyze spatio-temporal patterns of animal movement trajectories, in a
dynamically changing landscape. In particular, both spatial and temporal autocorrelation
embedded in this type of data will have to emerge in terms of sequential use of environmental
parameters and ecologically ...
Dynamic Kielspeling (DKS): Analysis of Dynamic ship movement of 10 measurement vessels in Antwerp Ghent University
Automated analysis of sports team movement tactics: demonstrator and initiation of license track Ghent University
In this project, we want to create a demonstrator able to support existing sports analytics companies that are currently unable to automatically analyze complex player interactions
based on x,y,t-coordinates of players. Building upon UGent research results on the geographical information model QTC (qualitative trajectory calculus), we want to develop a system that can detect similar player patterns within a database of ...
Talking in the city. A historical-anthropological analysis of communication, urbanism and movement in postcolonial Kinshasa (1960-present). KU Leuven
The research program sets out to analyze the ways in which communication infrastructures have been co−producing the postcolonial society in Kinshasa, capital city of the Democratic Republic of Congo (1960−present). This will be the first comprehensive study of the dialectics between communication technology (ICT), society and culture in an African urban context. The focus will be on information and communication technologies such as telegraph ...
3D-movement analysis from 2D video; a revolutionary way to assess arm movements during walking without 3D-movement data Hasselt University
Modelling, Analysis, and Numerics of Shallow Water Moment Equations KU Leuven
Human Movement Ghent University
The scientific study of human movement requires specific laboratories and Ghent University harbors state-of-the-art and unique expertise and facilities in this regard. The Core Facility Human Movement combines these facilities and know-how for lab-based and ambulatory evaluation of exercise capacity, sport performance, locomotion, motor skills and movement behaviour, and provides them in a professional fashion to the UGent research community ...
