• Title: PhysiQ: Off-site Quality Assessment of Exercise in Physical Therapy
• Authors: Hanchen David Wang, Meiyi Ma
• Abstract summary: Physical therapy (PT) is crucial for patients to restore and maintain mobility, function, and well-being. Many on-site activities and body exercises are performed under the supervision of therapists or clinicians. However, the postures of some exercises at home cannot be performed accurately due to the lack of supervision, quality assessment, and self-correction. In this paper, we design a new framework, PhysiQ, that tracks continuously and quantitatively measures people's off-site exercise activity through passive passive detection.

• Abstract: Physical therapy (PT) is crucial for patients to restore and maintain mobility, function, and well-being. Many on-site activities and body exercises are performed under the supervision of therapists or clinicians. However, the postures of some exercises at home cannot be performed accurately due to the lack of supervision, quality assessment, and self-correction. Therefore, in this paper, we design a new framework, PhysiQ, that continuously tracks and quantitatively measures people's off-site exercise activity through passive sensory detection. In the framework, we create a novel multi-task spatio-temporal Siamese Neural Network that measures the absolute quality through classification and relative quality based on an individual's PT progress through similarity comparison. PhysiQ digitizes and evaluates exercises in three different metrics: range of motions, stability, and repetition.

  More walkable built environments have the potential to increase activity across the population. Increases in walkability are associated with significant increases in physical activity after relocation. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is linked to an array of associated health benefits.

  Exercise-based rehabilitation programs have proven to be effective in enhancing the quality of life and reducing mortality and rehospitalization rates. These programs commonly prescribe a variety of exercise types, leading to a distinct challenge in rehabilitation exercise assessment datasets. This paper introduces a novel supervised contrastive learning framework with hard and soft negative samples to train a single model applicable to all exercise types.

• Easing Automatic Neurorehabilitation via Classification and Smoothness Analysis [1.44744639843118]
  We propose an automatic assessment pipeline that starts by recognizing patients' movements by means of a shallow deep learning architecture, then measuring the movement quality using jerk measure and related measures. A particularity of this work is that the dataset used is clinically relevant, since it represents movements inspired from Fugl-Meyer a well common upper-limb clinical stroke assessment scale for stroke patients. We show that it is possible to detect the contrast between healthy and patients movements in terms of smoothness, besides achieving conclusions about the patients' progress during the rehabilitation sessions that correspond to the clinicians' findings about each case.

  Strategy training is a rehabilitation approach that teaches skills to reduce disability among those with cognitive impairments following a stroke. Standardized fidelity assessment is used to measure adherence to treatment principles. We developed a rule-based NLP algorithm, a long-short term memory (LSTM) model, and a bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) model for this task.
