Modeling Aggressive Behaviors With Evolutionary Taxonomers

<02>The paper investigates both the recognition and modelling of aggressive behaviours using kinematic (3D) and electromyographic (EMG) performance data. For this purpose, Genetic Programming was used with a novel Gaussian model that harnesses a biomechanical primitive language for the multiclass behaviour recognition problem. The research has impact on the fields of evolutionary pattern recognition and biomechanics, as the model showed not only distinctive recognition performances, but also how its internal structure can be used to describes a physical behaviour using a synthesis of forces and energies. The behaviour model has potential applications in rehabilitation, biomechanics of sports, and physiology.
