Optical marker systems (considered the gold standard) can be accurately used in laboratory settings to explore mechanisms of injury during patient-handling tasks, but deploying inertial measuring units (IMUs) in biomechanics allows data collection in both laboratory and clinical environments. IMU-based capture systems are also preferable to optical marker systems because they avoid marker occlusion during more complicated patient-handling tasks. The purposes of our study are (1) to identify machine learning models that can accurately predict the task performed and the quality of posture adopted by participants performing patient-handling tasks (using data from wearable sensors-IMUs-and force plates), and (2) to determine an optimal combination ofthose IMUs.\u003Cbr>Time Series Classiﬁcation\u003Cbr>Time series classification (TSC) is a type of supervised machine learning classification problem where the data is sequentially ordered by time. It can be further categorized into univariate (TSC) and multivariate (MTSC) problems. Our data is multivariate time series data as it comprises multivariate forces, accelerations, and angular velocity\u003Cbr>measurements.\u003Cbr>Recently, researchers have made significant progress in machine learning techniques for multivariate time series classification. In [2], Fawaz et al developed a Convolutional Neural Network ensemble called InceptionTime that is highly accurate\u003Cbr>and scalable for large datasets. Similarly, Dempster et al [4] used a convolutional\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>kernel based approach (ROCKET) to perform very fast and accurate classifications on\u003Cbr>time series data. We compared the performances ofthe following multivariate time series classifiers on our dataset: MiniRocket [5], MultiRocket [6], HIVE-COTE 2.0 [7], InceptionTime [2], and ResNet [3] .\u003C","cbCaignQXW4cB3BR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaignQXW4cB3BR","pdf",739006,1,2,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Time Series Classification\n# Methodology\n## IMU and force-plate setup\n## Model training and validation\n# Results","[{\"question\":\"Why are inertial measuring units (IMUs) used instead of optical marker systems?\",\"answer\":\"IMUs enable data collection in both laboratory and clinical environments and avoid marker occlusion during more complex patient-handling tasks.\"},{\"question\":\"What patient-handling tasks and posture categories were used in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Participants performed three tasks: standing a patient up from a wheelchair, rolling a patient onto their side, and sitting a patient up at a table.
