چکیده انگلیسی

The human body may interact with structures and these interactions are developed through the application of contact forces, for instance when walking. The aim of this paper is to propose a new methodology using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for calibrating a force platform in order to reduce the uncertainties in the values of estimated vertical Ground Reaction Force and the positioning of the applied force in the human gait. Force platforms have been used to evaluate the pattern of human applied forces and to fit models for the interaction between pedestrians and structures. Linear relation assumptions between input and output are common in traditional Least Mean Square methods used in calibration. Some discrepancies due to nonlinearities in the experimental setup (looseness, wear, support settlements, electromagnetic noise, etc.) may harm the overall fitting. Literature has shown that nonlinear models, like ANN, can better handle this. During the calibration, the input data to the ANN were the reference voltages applied to the Wheatstone bridge, while the output data were the values of the standard weights applied in the force platform in defined sites. Supervised training based on k-fold cross validation was used to check the ANN generalization. The use of ANN shows significant improvements for the measured variables, leading to better results for predicted values with low uncertainty when compared to the results of a simple traditional calibration using Least Mean Squares.
