Assessment of Local Dynamic Stability in Gait Based on Univariate and Multivariate Time Series

Figure 6

Box plots for computed in MultiFull state space for different scenarios: (a) Normal; (b) Perturbation; (c) Faster; (d) Slower; (e) Up; (f) Down. All values are positive but smaller than the corresponding values: locally unstable behavior is gradually attenuated by the locomotor system. The platform jerks seem to have no effect. The previously indicated dependencies for individual joints are no longer visible.
