KneE-PAD

Description

This repository introduces the KneE-PAD (Knee Rehabilitation Exercises for Postural Assessment Dataset), which is a dataset consisting of knee rehabilitation exercises performed by 31 patients suffering from knee pathologies. In particular, a total of 267 patients were monitored over a 6-month period where they were asked to perform in two physiotherapy centers without any supervision 3 common lower limb rehabilitation exercises (squats, leg extension and walking). At each participant a set of 8 EMG and IMU sensors by Delsys was placed at important lower limb muscle groups. Moreover, they were asked to wear a heart rate sensor, a muscle oxygenation sensor and a goniometer to monitor their level of discomfort while an RGB camera was used to record their sessions. After curating and grouping the wrongly executed exercises, 2 common wrong variations for each exercise were identified in 31 participants. The goal of KneE-PAD is to be used for training machine learning algorithms for automatic postural assessment using only wearable sensors (EMG and IMU), which could become a vital part of a virtual coach to supervise the patients and provide useful feedback to them while executing their prescribed rehabilitation exercises remotely.
