Gait asymmetry is usually exhibited in patients with stroke or with certain neurological disorders. Our device can measure the weight pressure distribution that the patient exerts on each foot, in addition to the gait time, swing time, and stance time of each leg while walking. Based on the real time information, a biofeedback is given by means of auditory, and unpleasant electrotactile stimulation to actively correct gait asymmetry. The device consists of custom insoles with embedded force sensors adjustable to fit any shoe size, electrotactile and auditory feedback circuits, microcontroller, and wireless XBee transceivers. We compared the gait measurements from our device with that of a commercial device (MobilityLab) to verify its accuracy. Preliminary testing on post-stroke patients has shown that our device helps to improve their gait symmetry.","PeriodicalId":216613,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE 58th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121081068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Removing wasted bits of resources, the area and power costs are optimized rather than conventional design. This paper shows that intentional clock skew (useful clock skew) is effective to improve the performance of bitwidth-aware circuits, and formulates a novel problem of clock skew scheduling to minimize the clock period during register allocation and binding under the total bitwidth constraint. A mixed integer linear programming-based approach is presented to formally draw up the problem. Experimental results show that the proposed approach can reduce 9.4% clock period on average over the conventional design.","PeriodicalId":216613,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE 58th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS)","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124622310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the proposed technique, the parity bit plane of a public image is used to encrypt the message. Simulation results showed that the histogram of the ciphered image is uniform representing almost equivalent probability of occurrence of each intensity level. The entropy of the ciphered image is almost equal to the theoretical value of 8, indicating that the information leakage in the proposed encryption process is negligible. The correlation coefficients of the ciphered image prove that there exists almost zero correlation between its pixels. The simulation results also showed that the proposed technique is highly sensitive to the four different parts of its password. Also, the plain-text attack analysis gave NPCR and UACI values that are close to ideal. The proposed technique is computationally simpler than other image encryption techniques in the literature. Finally, a high PSMSE of 83 dB in the decoded image was achieved at a ciphered bit error rate of 10-4. Therefore, the proposed stream cipher can be efficiently used in real time multimedia and wireless applications.","PeriodicalId":216613,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE 58th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS)","volume":"139 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127330479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple passive and active sensors are strategically placed to monitor the patient. A number of custom battery-powered embedded systems read the sensors and wirelessly transmit the sensor's values. A central computational node collects the wireless transmissions and analyzes the data.

The stochastic IIR filter can provide an area-efficient hardware implementation that replaces a multiplier used in a traditional implementation by a simple logic gate. However, it strongly suffers from overflow of internal values as stochastic computation represents limited real values within -1 to 1, which significantly degrades the performance of the stochastic IIR filter. In order to maintain internal values within -1 to 1, the proposed stochastic IIR filter exploits a scaling method based on an L∞ norm. An input signal is scaled down by a scaling coefficient and then is scaled up after a feedback-loop block to provide a signal amplitude desired. As a design example, second-order low-pass IIR filters based on stochastic computation are designed and simulated in MATLAB. The proposed scaled stochastic IIR filter provides a similar response to an ideal floating-point IIR filter while a stochastic IIR filter without scaling degrades a signal amplitude by 19.2 dB with a frequency lower than a desired cutoff frequency.","PeriodicalId":216613,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE 58th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127937306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
