Aiming at the requirement of rapid recognition of the wearer’s gait stage in the process of intelligent hybrid control of an exoskeleton, this paper studies the human body mixed motion pattern recognition technology based on multi-source feature parameters. We obtain information on human lower extremity acceleration and plantar analyze the relationship between these parameters and gait cycle studying the motion state recognition method based on feature evaluation and neural network. Based on the actual requirements of exoskeleton per use, 15 common gait patterns were determined. Using this, the studies were carried out on the time domain, frequency domain, and energy feature extraction of multi-source lower extremity motion information. The distance-based feature screening method was used to extract the optimal features. Finally, based on the multi-layer BP (back propagation) neural network, a nonlinear mapping model between feature quantity and motion state was established. The experimental results showed that the recognition accuracy in single motion mode can reach up to 98.28%, while the recognition accuracy of the two groups of experiments in mixed motion mode was found to be 92.7% and 97.4%, respectively. The feasibility and effectiveness of the model were verified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Uncertain data clustering has been recognized as an essential task in the research of data mining. Many centralized clustering algorithms are extended by defining new distance or similarity measurements to tackle this issue. With the fast development of network applications, these centralized methods show their limitations in conducting data clustering in a large dynamic distributed peer-to-peer network due to the privacy and security concerns or the technical constraints brought by distributive environments. In this paper, we propose a novel distributed uncertain data clustering algorithm, in which the centralized global clustering solution is approximated by performing distributed clustering. To shorten the execution time, the reduction technique is then applied to transform the proposed method into its deterministic form by replacing each uncertain data object with its expected centroid. Finally, the attribute-weight-entropy regularization technique enhances the proposed distributed clustering method to achieve better results in data clustering and extract the essential features for cluster identification. The experiments on both synthetic and real-world data have shown the efficiency and superiority of the presented algorithm.
