Device and method for stimulating at least one of a nerve and a muscle of a patient having a pathological gait

A device for training a personalized model of a gait cycle configured to generate a gait phase information representative of a state of advancement of a patient in the gait cycle, said device comprising:

• at least one input configured to receive:
• for each subject of a plurality of subjects, subject motion data and subject foot plantar pressure data acquired during a plurality of gait cycles,
• for said patient, patient motion data and patient foot plantar pressure data acquired during a plurality of gait cycles,
• said subject foot plantar pressure data and patient foot plantar pressure data being representative of a strength of a contact of at least one region of a foot with a ground, said subject foot plantar pressure data and patient foot plantar pressure data being acquired with at least one pressure sensor placed under said foot, at least one processor configured to:
• generate a generic training dataset based on said subject motion data and subject foot plantar pressure data from the plurality of subjects,
• generate a patient training dataset based on said patient motion data and patient foot plantar pressure data,
• train a generic model of a gait cycle using said generic training dataset so as to obtain a pre-trained generic model of a gait cycle, and
• retrain said pre-trained generic model of a gait cycle using said patient training dataset so as to obtain said personalized model of a gait cycle,
• at least one output configured to provide said personalized model of a gait cycle.
