„Susan is one of the most delightful and collaborative professionals I had the pleasure of working with in my career. She is an excellent data scientist with solid engineering background. She always manages project timeline well and ensures that we delivered projects on time. Along with completing her own tasks, Susan is always willing to lend a hand to anyone who needs it and brings a positive energy to the team. I couldn’t recommend her more for any company looking for new talent.“

Validity of Load Rate Estimation Using Accelerometers During Physical Activity on an Anti-Gravity Treadmill
Susan Nazirizadeh, Maria Stokes, Nigel K. Arden, Alexander I. J. Forrester
Introduction: A simple tool to estimate loading on the lower limb joints outside a laboratory may be useful for people who suffer from degenerative joint disease. Here, the accelerometers on board of wearables (smartwatch, smartphone) were used to estimate load rate on the lower limbs and were compared to data from a treadmill force plate. The aim was to assess the validity of wearables to estimate load rate transmitted through the joints.

Here, the accelerometers on board of wearables (smartwatch, smartphone) were used to estimate load rate on the lower limbs and were compared to data from a treadmill force plate. The aim was to assess the validity of wearables to estimate load rate transmitted through the joints.
Methods: Twelve healthy participants (female n=4, male n=8; aged 26 ± 3 years; height: 175 ± 15 cm; body mass: 71 ± 9 kg) carried wearables, while performing locomotive activities on an anti-gravity treadmill with an integrated force plate. Acceleration data from the wearables and force plate data were used to estimate load rate. The treadmill enabled 7,680 data points to be obtained, allowing a good estimate of uncertainty to be examined. A linear regression model and cross-validation with 1,000 bootstrap resamples were used to assess the validation.
Results: Significant correlation was found between load rate from the force plate and wearables (smartphone: R2 = 0.71; smartwatch: R2 = 0.67).
Conclusion: Wearables’ accelerometers can estimate load rate, and the good correlation with force plate data supports their use as a surrogate when assessing lower limb joint loading in field environments. -
Estimates of load rates on the lower limb joints using smartphone accelerometers during physical activity

Although the causes and pathology of the progression of osteoarthritis are not entirely understood, an active lifestyle avoiding excessive load on the joints can control symptoms of osteoarthritis (e.g. joint pain and stiffness). The aim of this thesis was to develop, validate, and test an algorithm for estimating impact loading through the lower limbs using wearables (smartphones and smartwatches).

Although the causes and pathology of the progression of osteoarthritis are not entirely understood, an active lifestyle avoiding excessive load on the joints can control symptoms of osteoarthritis (e.g. joint pain and stiffness). The aim of this thesis was to develop, validate, and test an algorithm for estimating impact loading through the lower limbs using wearables (smartphones and smartwatches). The viscoelastic nature of articular cartilage means it is susceptible to high load rates, hence, the mean load rate magnitude was estimated from accelerometer recordings of wearables and used as a surrogate for estimating impact loading on the lower limb joints. The validity of the mean load rate magnitude was assessed against the gold standard equipment, the force plate (R2 = 0.77). Further, the mean load rate magnitude was used as a feature in the classification of everyday activities with support vector machine classifiers with an accuracy of 80%. An app was then developed which monitored mean load rate magnitude using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for testing the reliability of monitoring over a period of seven days. The accumulated mean load rate magnitude was used to estimate the error, êsmartphone = 2.66%, for seven-day recordings. Finally, a function to score pain was added to the final version of the app, termed OApp™. A single case study assessed the ability of OApp™ to compare osteoarthritis-related pain to mean load rate magnitude with a low positive correlation of r = 0.38. To conclude, this thesis developed, assessed the validation, and tested a load rate magnitude algorithm, which estimated load rate on the lower limb joints with the accelerometer sensors of wearables. These results form the basis for further research to develop a clinical tool for monitoring load rate and supporting patients to maintain an active lifestyle by avoiding excessive load on their lower limb joints.
