Popis: The purpose of this study is to develop an optimized system for predicting Knee Adduction Moment (KAM) using wearable Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) RNN. Traditional KAM measurement methods are limited by the need for complex laboratory equipment and significant time and cost investments. This study proposes two systems for predicting Knee Adduction Moment based on wearable IMU sensor data and gait patterns: the Multi-model Gait-based KAM Prediction System and the Single-model KAM Prediction System. The Multi-model system pre-classifies different gait patterns and uses specific prediction models tailored for each pattern, while the Single-model system handles all gait patterns with one unified model. Both systems were evaluated using IMU sensor data and GRF data collected from participants in a controlled laboratory environment. The overall performance of the Multi-model Gait-based KAM Prediction System showed an approximately 20% improvement over the Single-model KAM Prediction System. Specifically, the RMSE for the Multi-model system was 6.84 N·m, which is lower than the 8.82 N·m of the Single-model system, indicating a better predictive accuracy. The Multi-model system also achieved a MAPE of 8.47%, compared with 12.95% for the Single-model system, further demonstrating its superior performance.
