“…Human motion recognition (HMR) is a technology domain that recognizes and distinguishes different types of human activities using sensor data [ 1 ]; it is widely used in rehabilitation and medical treatment like the classification and rehabilitation evaluation of patients with hip osteoarthritis, neurological disorders such as stroke, and Parkinson’s disease through gait analysis [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. It also has been used in training assistance like exercise coaching through motion tracking and feedback, speed and position tracking in sports training [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ], sudden fall prevention [ 18 ] along with the development of wearable sensor technology. This paper describes the development of a foot–ground contact phase classification (FGCC) algorithm as FGCC is one of the most fundamental and elemental processes in lower-limb motion analysis.…”
