| dc.description.abstract | Ground Reaction Forces (GRFs) are fundamental to the analysis of running biomechanics and play a critical role in performance assessment, injury prevention, and rehabilitation [1]. While GRFs are traditionally measured using expensive and non-portable systems such as instrumented treadmills, there is growing interest in more accessible, scalable alternatives [2]. Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), which record acceleration, angular velocity, and orientation, have demonstrated potential in this context [3-5]. Recent research has applied deep learning techniques to estimate GRFs from IMU-derived kinematic data [4-6]; however, a standardized benchmark for comparing different models using a publicly available dataset remains absent, limiting reproducibility and cross-study evaluation. | en |
