Biomedical Engineering
Computer Science
Data Science

Background:

Rehabilitation exercise assessment is vital for patient recovery, especially after mobility-affecting events.
Traditional Euclidean methods struggle to capture complex motion variations and spatial relationships in rehabilitation data.
Skeleton-based data from rehabilitation exercises requires advanced analytical techniques for accurate assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a novel framework for rehabilitation exercise assessment using symmetric positive definite (SPD) manifolds.
To leverage the geometric properties of SPD manifolds for preserving intrinsic human motion characteristics.
To improve the accuracy and efficiency of classifying correct versus incorrect rehabilitation movements.

Main Methods:

Representing skeleton-based rehabilitation data as points on a symmetric positive definite (SPD) manifold.
Integrating unsupervised K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) with Riemannian geometry for movement classification.
Developing a Tangent Space Linear SPD Support Vector Machine (SVM) optimized via stochastic gradient descent (SGD).
Designing a specialized neural network with multi-scale feature extraction for vectorized SPD data.

Main Results:

The proposed SPD manifold approach significantly outperforms existing methods on benchmark datasets (Kimore, UI-PRMD, EHE).
Achieved high cross-subject accuracies: 92.40% (UI-PRMD), 85.18% (Kimore), and 87.59% (EHE).
Demonstrated faster training convergence and reduced computational overhead compared to state-of-the-art techniques.

Conclusions:

Symmetric positive definite (SPD) manifolds offer a powerful tool for accurate and reliable rehabilitation exercise assessment.
The proposed framework effectively captures intrinsic geometric structures and nonlinear variations in human motion.
This novel approach has the potential to significantly enhance patient recovery monitoring and therapeutic guidance.
