I Introduction
A typical problem in Biomechanics is the determination
of loads supported by joints or muscle forces necessary to
perform a particular movement. However, direct
measurement of these forces requires invasive techniques
whose implementation is difficult and rarely viable. To
circumvent this problem, inverse dynamics is used to
estimate the driving forces required to perform the
movement [1,2].
Since deformation of bones may be neglected for most
human motions, the skeleton can be modeled by the
multibody system method. The system consists of rigid
bodies connected by ideal frictionless joints. An array of
at least three markers per segment is needed for the
definition of the position and orientation of a rigid body
in space. With the mechanical model of the body and the
information of the kinematics, obtained from the markers
and reaction forces on the ground from the force
platforms, the dynamics of the skeletal system, described
by its equations of motions, can be inverted to determine
the driving forces in the joints. In this process it is
essential to start up with reliable measurements in order
to get accurate results. The estimation of the skeletal
motion obtained from marker-based motion capture
systems is known to be affected by significant errors.
One source of errors is the noise introduced by the
motion capture system. This noise 1is amplificated
because of its high frequency content when the raw
