AbstractThis paper presents the application of the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm in the analysis of human functional movements in activities of daily living (ADLs). Dynamic Time Warping was originally developed for automatic speech recognition, though the method has been adopted by several fi elds of biomechanics. As a part of the post-stroke rehabilitation project COSMOSYS, the aim is to quantify the ADL performances of hemiparetic subjects, hence to be able to track their progress during physiotherapy.
