The aim of pattern recognition research for clinical gait analysis is to find ways to assist decision making and treatment planning. This book presents a clinical decision support system for detecting and scoring of a knee disorder. It emphasizes new approaches like combining classifiers which produced promising results (up to 94%) for...
