Method and apparatus for determining skeletal muscle cross-sectional area calculation model of subject based on demographic element and kinematic element
A method and apparatus for determining a subject's skeletal muscle cross-sectional area calculation model based on demographic factors and kinematic factors are disclosed. The method comprises: dividing a population of subjects into a modeling population for determining the calculation model and a verification population for verifying the obtained calculation model; Calculating a skeletal muscle cross-sectional area of subjects belonging to the population; Determining a demographic factor of the subject belonging to the modeling population and applying a regression technique to the determined demographic factor to obtain a demographic model for calculating the skeletal muscle cross-sectional area of the subject from the demographic factor ; Determining a kinematic element of the subject belonging to the modeling population and applying a regression analysis technique to the determined kinematic element to obtain a kinematic model for calculating the skeletal muscle cross-sectional area of the subject from the kinematic element; Estimating skeletal muscle cross-sectional area by applying a demographic factor and a kinematic factor of the subject belonging to the verification population to the obtained demographic model and kinematic model; And verifying the demographic model and the kinematic model by comparing the estimated skeletal muscle cross-sectional area with the calculated skeletal muscle cross-sectional area. Demographic and kinematic models can be defined to predict the mean muscle values of a group of subjects sharing similar features with demographic information obtainable with the present invention.인구통계학적 요소 및 운동학적 요소를 기반으로 피험자의 골격근 단면적 산출 모델을 결정하는 방법 및 장치가 개시된다. 이러한 방법은, 피험자의 모집단을 상기 산출 모델을 결정하기 위한 모델링 모집단 및 획득된 산출 모델을 검증하기 위한 검증 모집단으로 분할하는 단계; 상기 모집단에 속하는 피험자들의 골격근 단면적을 계산하는 단계; 상기 모델링 모집단에 속한 피험자의 인구통계학적 요소를 결정하고, 결정된 인구통계학적 요소에 회귀분석 기법을 적용하여 상기 인구통계학적 요소로부터 상기 피험자들의 골격근 단면적을 산출하기 위한 인구통계학적 모델을 획득하는 단계; 상기 모델링 모집단에 속한 피험자의 운동학적 요소를 결정하고, 결정된 운동학적 요소에
