Measurement of Dynamic Joint Stiffness from Multiple Short Data Segments
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents our new method, Short Segment-Structural Decomposition SubSpace (SS-SDSS), for the estimation of dynamic joint stiffness from short data segments. The main application is for data sets that are only piecewise stationary. Our approach is to: 1) derive a data-driven, mathematical model for dynamic stiffness for short data segments; 2) bin the non-stationary data into a number of short, stationary data segments; and 3) estimate the model parameters from subsets of segments with the same properties. This method extends our previous state-spacework by recognizing that initial conditions have important effects for short data segments; consequently, initial conditions are incorporated into the stiffness model and estimated for each segment. A simulation study that faithfully replicated experimental conditions delineated the range of experimental conditions for which the method can successfully identify stiffness. An experimental study on the ankle of a healthy subject during a torque matching tasks demonstrated the successful estimation of dynamic stiffness in a slow, time-varying experiment. Together, the simulation and experimental studies demonstrate that the SS-SDSS method is a valuable tool to measure stiffness in functionally important tasks.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
