Multiscale entropy analysis of human gait dynamics
Abstract
We compare the complexity of human gait time series from healthy subjects under different conditions. Using the recently developed multiscale entropy algorithm, which provides a way to measure complexity over a range of scales, we observe that normal spontaneous walking has the highest complexity when compared to slow and fast walking and also to walking paced by a metronome. These findings have implications for modeling locomotor control and for quantifying gait dynamics in physiologic and pathologic states.
Keywords: Complexity; Human gait; Locomotion; Multiscale entropy; Neural control.
