Abstract

Foot progression angle (FPA) analysis is one of the core methods to detect gait pathologies as basic information to prevent foot injury from excessive in-toeing and out-toeing. Deep learning-based object detection can assist in measuring the FPA through plantar pressure images. This study aims to establish a precision model for determining the FPA. The precision detection of FPA can provide information with in-toeing, out-toeing, and rearfoot kinematics to evaluate the effect of physical therapy programs on knee pain and knee osteoarthritis. We analyzed a total of 1424 plantar images with three different You Only Look Once (YOLO) networks: YOLO v3, v4, and v5x, to obtain a suitable model for FPA detection. YOLOv4 showed higher performance of the profile-box, with average precision in the left foot of 100.00% and the right foot of 99.78%, respectively. Besides, in detecting the foot angle-box, the ground-truth has similar results with YOLOv4 (5.58 ± 0.10° vs. 5.86 ± 0.09°, p = 0.013). In contrast, there was a significant difference in FPA between ground-truth vs. YOLOv3 (5.58 ± 0.10° vs. 6.07 ± 0.06°, p < 0.001), and ground-truth vs. YOLOv5x (5.58 ± 0.10° vs. 6.75 ± 0.06°, p < 0.001). This result implies that deep learning with YOLOv4 can enhance the detection of FPA.

YOLOv3: An Incremental Improvement

Joseph Redmon, Ali Farhadi (2018)

We present some updates to YOLO! We made a bunch of little design changes to make it better. We also trained this new network that's pretty swell. It's a little bigger than last time but more accurate. It's still fast though, don't worry. At 320x320 YOLOv3 runs in 22 ms at 28.2 mAP, as accurate as SSD but three times faster. When we look at the old .5 IOU mAP detection metric YOLOv3 is quite good. It achieves 57.9 mAP@50 in 51 ms on a Titan X, compared to 57.5 mAP@50 in 198 ms by RetinaNet, similar performance but 3.8x faster.

YOLOv4: Optimal Speed and Accuracy of Object Detection

Alexey Bochkovskiy, Chien-Yao Wang, Hong-Yuan Liao (2020)

There are a huge number of features which are said to improve Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) accuracy. Practical testing of combinations of such features on large datasets, and theoretical justification of the result, is required. Some features operate on certain models exclusively and for certain problems exclusively, or only for small-scale datasets; while some features, such as batch-normalization and residual-connections, are applicable to the majority of models, tasks, and datasets. We assume that such universal features include Weighted-Residual-Connections (WRC), Cross-Stage-Partial-connections (CSP), Cross mini-Batch Normalization (CmBN), Self-adversarial-training (SAT) and Mish-activation. We use new features: WRC, CSP, CmBN, SAT, Mish activation, Mosaic data augmentation, CmBN, DropBlock regularization, and CIoU loss, and combine some of them to achieve state-of-the-art results: 43.5% AP (65.7% AP50) for the MS COCO dataset at a realtime speed of ~65 FPS on Tesla V100.
