Knowing how well an activity is performed is important for home rehabilitation. We would like to not only know if a motion is being performed correctly, but also in what way the motion is incorrect so that we may provide feedback to the user. This paper describes methods for assessing human motion quality using body-worn tri-axial accelerometers and gyroscopes.

In this paper, we describe methods for assessment of exercise quality using body-worn tri-axial accelerometers. We assess exercise quality by building a classifier that labels incorrect exercises. The incorrect performances are divided into a number of classes of errors as defined by a physical therapist.

A portion of the slices tested generated epileptiform discharges in response to electrical shocks under normal physiological conditions. The fraction of slices showing epileptiform responses increased from 44 to 86% when bathing [K+] increased from 3.
