     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Various embodiments of the present disclosure now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments are shown. Indeed, various configurations as discussed herein may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. The term “or” (also designated as “I”) is used herein in both the alternative and conjunctive sense, unless otherwise indicated. The terms “illustrative” and “exemplary” are used to be examples with no indication of quality level. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout. 
     I. Overview and Technical Advantages 
     Various embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for enabling operations of a wearable device comprising at least one sensor and a plurality of independent sections of electroactive polymers that are each associated with a zone of a wearer&#39;s foot, where the wearable device may be configured to: (i) determine motion, orientation and heading with respect to the wearer&#39;s foot, (ii) determine characteristics of the wearer&#39;s balance, stride and environment, (iii) generate a voltage output via at least one of the plurality of independent sections of electroactive polymers and based at least in part on the determined characteristics, and (iv) dynamically adjust, based at least in part on analysis of historical wearable device data and by utilizing machine learning techniques, the voltage output for each of the plurality of independent sections of electroactive polymers. 
     Various embodiments are directed to systems, apparatuses, and/or methods for generating a movement prediction profile for use in conjunction with a wearable device that is configured to provide and/or augment stimulation (e.g., nervous system stimulation/feedback). 
     Various embodiments of the present invention address a need for systems and techniques for generating and providing movement prediction profiles that can account for individual user features and requirements and optimized based at least in part on user input/user response to stimulation over time. 
     Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a wearable device (e.g., one or two wearable knee braces) having an integrated controller and one or more sensors (e.g., one or more tactile pressure sensors) that are collectively configured to monitor a wearer&#39;s movements in real-time and provide stimulation (e.g., via a plurality of independent foot stimulation sections). In some embodiments, stimulation may be provided based at least in part on a movement prediction profile defining a plurality of stimulation protocols. In some embodiments, based at least in part on the movement prediction profile, the controller may provide a control indication to cause one or more of a plurality of independent foot stimulation sections to provide stimulation to one or more target foot zones each associated with a particular area of the foot. A stimulation protocol may be dynamically adjusted based at least in part on user input and/or by monitoring user response. Additionally, the movement prediction profile for a user may be refined over time using machine learning techniques to identify optimal parameters for stimulation protocols. To further enhance system performance, the wearable device may be calibrated based at least in part on user features (e.g., age, gender, biometric information, and/or the like), and any changes thereto. In particular, this system is usable in any stage of peripheral neuropathy and especially during early stages of the condition. As the system is used over time, a wearer&#39;s brain will associate stimulation/feedback (e.g., provided in a mid-eg region of the body) with particular angles and positions of the feet while walking. Thus, the system may be used for training and/or neurorehabilitation to assist with regaining mobility and muscle control due to decreased nervous system function. 
     The apparatuses, systems, and methods described herein provide a robust movement monitoring and stimulation system. Moreover, various embodiments of the present invention disclose movement prediction machine learning models that can make inferences based at least in part on sensor data in a more accurate and computationally efficient manner than state-of-the-art systems. Accordingly, various embodiments of the present disclosure make substantial technical contributions to the field of monitoring devices and substantially improve state-of-the-art systems. 
     Various embodiments of the present invention improve life experiences of patient affected by peripheral neuropathy (e.g., diabetes patients and stroke victims). Patients affected by peripheral neuropathy (e.g., diabetes patients and stroke victims) may experience reduced mobility as a result of decreased nerve function. For example, a stroke victim may experience degraded nerve connectivity and may need to retrain his or her nervous system to restore nerve function. In some cases, a patient may require an alternate feedback indicator to confirm proper placement of the patient&#39;s feet while walking. In the advanced stages of peripheral neuropathy, patients experience a dramatic reduction in their ability to use their feet, which may lead to amputation. 
     Various embodiments of the present invention address the challenge of increased walking difficulties experienced by patients with peripheral neuropathy. A goal of various embodiments of the present invention is to prevent the progression of peripheral neuropathy using a system that provides simulated nerve feedback to the body relative to foot angle and pressure. In some embodiments, a wearable device is provided that can stimulate the skin (e.g., a mid-leg area of a patient&#39;s body) in order to provide linearly synchronized pressure that is controllable by a remote input device. When used over time, the brain is able to associate generated feedback/sensations with the proper angle and position of the feet while walking, enabling patients to recover muscle control. Accordingly, the wearable device may preserve mobility in peripheral neuropathy patients and stall and/or prevent further progression of the condition. 
     Various embodiments of the present invention disclose a peripheral neuropathy nerve feedback stimulus system. The noted system provides simulated nerve feedback stimulus to the body relative to foot angle and pressure. The system may detect pressure measures in the foot related to walking and standing and correlate these pressure measures to a synchronized feedback system (e.g., in the upper leg), providing a patient with a new source of tactile feedback. The system may thus utilize tactile pressure sensing technologies. In one example, a sole insert consisting of electroactive polymers that trigger an applied voltage in the mid-leg area may provide tactile feedback to the patient. The electroactive polymers may generate a squeezing sensation in a particular zone within the area that is experienced by the patient in direct correlation with the placement of the patient&#39;s foot on the ground. 
     In some embodiments, foot pressure may be detected using tactile pressure sensing technology. The system may be tuned to accommodate different numbers of zones as well as fluctuating pressure levels crossing more than one zone thereby facilitating representation of pressures most analogous to the step pattern of a patient. 
     The wearable device may be placed in a “learning” mode during calibration in which the wearer standing vertically in a relaxed position (center/balance position) corresponds with 0 volts (no compression) being supplied to the wearable device and therefore no generated feedback. In some examples, calibration operations may be performed under the supervision of a physical therapist or skilled provider. Alternatively, the system can utilize inertial measurement units (IMUs) to determine motion, orientation, and heading with respect to a wearer&#39;s feet such as via a sole insert or shoe attachment. The system may convert maximum and minimum angles of the feet to corresponding linear control voltages to be supplied by the wearable device. The system can also work in conjunction with electro-mechanical limbs and provide additional feedback for walking and balance for amputees (e.g., position sensors may be attached directly to a prosthetic). While the patient is walking, the system may detect changes in pressure as the patient&#39;s weight is shifted from one foot to another. In some examples, one or more wearable devices can be utilized (e.g., a dual-mode wearable device as described above, with the use of two devices improving system accuracy). In some embodiments, each of a plurality of zones of electroactive polymers may be associated with a particular area of the foot. The wearable device may generate a supply voltage in response to detected pressure in a particular area of the foot. The resulting sensation in the wearer&#39;s leg will be distinctive depending on the zone to which voltage is supplied, allowing the wearer to detect/feel the position of his or her foot. In some embodiments, a center/balanced position may correspond with 0 volts (i.e., no compression of the wearable device material). 
     Analysis of pressure levels in each wearable device zone can facilitate selection of a control voltage output to each of the corresponding zones of the leg area through the wearable device. Various wireless technologies may be utilized to transmit data between the wearable device and another computing device. Alternative embodiments may include techniques that stimulate sensory nerves near the epidermis. For example, by deploying mechanical forces via small actuators (e.g., heat or vibrating elements) that can be interpreted by sensory nerves. The control voltage may be varied in order to increase or decrease the intensity of the pressure (compression) of the wearable device. Machine learning techniques may also be used to analyze the wearer&#39;s balance, stride and environment, e.g., to automatically adjust the voltage level being supplied by the wearable device. In some embodiments, machine learning techniques may be utilized to generate user guidance and/or provide alerts to the wearer (e.g., regarding over-exertions, difficult terrains, or unsuccessful operations). 
     II. Definitions of Certain Terms 
     The term “body” may refer to a person&#39;s physical form, and the term may specifically be utilized to refer to a portion of a person&#39;s body, including at least a portion of one or more internal and/or external organs of a user. In general, the terms user, patient, wearer, individual, person and/or similar words are used herein interchangeably. 
     The term “electronically coupled” or “in electronic communication with” may refer to two or more electrical elements (for example, but not limited to, an example processing circuitry, communication module, input/output module memory, plurality of independent foot stimulation sections) and/or electric circuit(s) being connected through wired means (for example but not limited to, conductive wires or traces) and/or wireless means (for example but not limited to, wireless network, electromagnetic field), such that data and/or information (for example, electronic indications, signals) may be transmitted to and/or received from the electrical elements and/or electric circuit(s) that are electronically coupled. 
     The term “peripheral neuropathy” may refer to a condition in which damage to the peripheral nervous system associated with the brain and spinal cord causes weakness, numbness and/or pain, particularly in the hands and feet. Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by injury, infections, metabolic disease (e.g., diabetes), exposure to toxins, or the like. Patients affected by peripheral neuropathy in the feet, particularly diabetes induced peripheral neuropathy, may experience reduced mobility as a result of decreased nerve function. In another example, a stroke victim may experience degraded nerve connectivity and may need to retrain his or her nervous system in order to restore nerve function. In some examples, a lack of stimulation/feedback from the nervous system results in walking difficulties as peripheral neuropathy progresses and can lead to amputation. 
     The term “wearable device” may refer to an article or garment configured to fit closely to a wearer&#39;s body. In some embodiments, the wearable device may be or comprise an electronic device that is configured to be worn proximate or adjacent a wearer&#39;s knee, leg or thigh (e.g., one or two wearable knee braces). In some embodiments, the wearable device may be or comprise, for example without limitation, a jacket, vest, shirt, pants, shorts, underwear, hat, socks, scarf, neck warmer, leg gaiter, head band, arm band, leg band, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the wearable device comprises a plurality of independent stimulation sections that are each associated with a particular foot zone of the wearer. In various embodiments, an example wearable device may comprise at least a power source (e.g., a rechargeable battery), a controller or processor, a wireless communication transceiver and one or more sensors. 
     The term “sensor data” may refer to one or more data objects describing user balance information/data, physiological information/data, biometric information/data, accelerometer information/data, location information/data, environmental information/data, image/video sensor information/data, and/or the like which may be associated with a particular person (e.g., a user of a wearable device). Sensor data may be collected and/or generated by one or more sensors associated with the user, such as mobile device sensors, wearable device sensors (e.g., one or more tactile pressure sensors), sensors associated with one or more devices commonly used by the user, and/or the like. In some embodiments, embodiments, the sensor data may include image data, muscle condition data, heart rate data, oxygen saturation data, pulse rate data, body temperature data, breath rate data, perspiration data, blink rate data, blood pressure data, neural activity data, cardiovascular data, pulmonary data, and/or various other types of information/data. In some embodiments, sensor data may be stored in conjunction with a user profile. 
     The term “movement prediction machine learning model” may refer to a data object that describes steps/operations, hyper-parameters, and/or parameters of a machine learning model/algorithm that is configured to generate data needed to infer/generate a movement profile with respect to a person (e.g., a user of a wearable device). The steps/operations of the movement prediction machine learning model may lead to performing one or more prediction-based tasks (e.g., providing the movement prediction profile for use in conjunction with a wearable device in order to provide stimulation while a user is walking). In some embodiments, the movement prediction machine learning model may comprise a first sub-model that is configured to generate a movement prediction profile comprising one or more movement feature sets. In some embodiments, the movement prediction machine learning model may comprise a second sub-model that is configured to generate a plurality of stimulation protocols that are each associated with a particular movement feature set. By way of example, a movement feature set may comprise user balance information and environmental information. In some embodiments, a movement feature set may be or comprise a gradient representation of pressure distribution across at least a portion of a user&#39;s foot. The movement prediction machine learning model may be trained based at least in part on a ground truth event data object. By way of example, the movement prediction machine learning model/algorithm may be a neural network, a convolutional neural network (CNN), a recurrent neural network (RNN), and/or the like. 
     The term “movement prediction profile” may refer to a data object that describes a predictive output of one or more computer-implemented processes, wherein the predictive output describes a plurality of movement feature sets associated with a particular user in which each movement feature set comprises a gradient representation of pressure distribution across at least a portion of a user&#39;s foot. In some embodiments, each movement feature set is associated with a particular foot movement, foot position, foot angle and/or pressure distribution. By way of example, a first movement feature set may be associated with a user&#39;s standing position when both feet are in contact with the ground. Another movement feature set may be associated with a user&#39;s walking stride. In an example walking stride, a user&#39;s right foot may be up in the air (i.e., not in contact with the ground) and at least a portion of the user&#39;s left foot may be in contact with the ground. In another example walking stride, at least a portion of a user&#39;s right foot may be in contact with the ground and the entirety of the user&#39;s left foot may be in the air. In some embodiments, determining a movement prediction profile may comprise processing an event data object describing sensor data associated with a user of a wearable device. In some embodiments, the movement prediction profile may be an output of movement prediction machine learning model. Additionally, in some embodiments, determining the movement prediction profile may comprise identifying a stimulation protocol for each movement feature set. 
     The term “event data object” may refer to a data object storing and/or providing access to information/data that is related a user of a wearable device (e.g., describes recorded movements of the noted user). In some embodiments, an event data object may describe one or more recorded events associated with a user of a wearable device. In some embodiments, the event data object may comprise sensor data (e.g., foot pressure distribution information/data, image information/data, location information/data, and/or the like) associated with a user&#39;s foot/feet, the user&#39;s movements, the user&#39;s environment, combinations thereof, and/or the like. In some embodiments, an event data object may comprise audio information/data, image/video sensor information/data, physiological information/data, biometric information/data, accelerometer information/data, environmental information/data, combinations thereof, and/or the like. 
     The term “stimulation protocol” may refer to a data object that describes one or more electrical pulses (e.g., a sequence of electrical pulses) that are associated with a target foot zone and/or at least one of a plurality of independent stimulation sections of a wearable device. Each electrical pulse may be defined by one or more characteristics (i.e., electrical pulse characteristics) including, without limitation, intensity (e.g., defined by amplitude, voltage and/or current characteristics), duration (e.g., pulse duration), wave type and/or wave form. In some embodiments, a stimulation protocol may be associated with a movement feature set. A stimulation protocol may be triggered/initiated in response to detecting one or more movement characteristics associated with a user of a wearable device that are associated with a movement feature set. In various embodiments, a stimulation protocol may be delivered to at least one target foot zone via one or more independent stimulation sections positioned adjacent the at least one target foot zone. By way of example, a stimulation protocol for a standing position in which a user has both feet placed firmly on the ground may comprise providing no stimulation. In another example, a stimulation protocol for a walking stride in which a front portion of a user&#39;s right foot is in contact with the ground while a back portion of the right foot is in the air may comprise providing stimulation to one or more target foot zones associated with the front portion of the right foot. Additionally, if the entirety of the user&#39;s left foot is in contact with the ground, the stimulation protocol may also comprise providing no stimulation to the user&#39;s left foot. Accordingly, while a user is walking within a particular environment/terrain, a wearable device may provide stimulation (e.g., electrical pulses) to one or more target foot zones based at least in part on a current location/position of the user&#39;s foot relative to the ground.

For example, as depicted, the first independent foot stimulation section  701  is associated with a first zone  704  corresponding with a top left area of the wearer&#39;s foot. As further depicted, the second independent foot stimulation section  703  is associated with a second foot zone  706  corresponding with a top right area of the wearer&#39;s foot. The third independent foot stimulation section  705  is associated with a third foot zone  708  corresponding with a central left area of the wearer&#39;s foot. The fourth independent foot stimulation section  707  is associated with a fourth foot zone  710  corresponding with a central right area of the wearer&#39;s foot. The fifth independent foot stimulation section  709  is associated with a fifth foot zone  712  corresponding with a bottom left area of the wearer&#39;s foot. The sixth independent foot stimulation section  711  is associated with a sixth foot zone  714  corresponding with a bottom right area of the wearer&#39;s foot. 
     In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may store and utilize a movement prediction profile for a wearer. As noted above, the movement prediction profile may be a data object that describes a plurality of movement feature sets associated with a particular user. In some embodiments, each movement feature set comprises a gradient representation of pressure distribution across at least a portion of a user&#39;s foot. Additionally, each movement feature set may be associated with a particular foot movement, foot position, foot angle, foot pressure distribution and stimulation protocol. For example, a first movement feature set may be associated with a user&#39;s standing position when both feet are placed firmly on the ground. Another movement feature set may be associated with a user&#39;s particular walking stride. In an example walking stride, a user&#39;s right foot may be partially in contact with the ground while the user&#39;s left foot may be up in the air. In various embodiments, the wearable device  40  may provide a control indication to cause a particular independent foot stimulation section to provide stimulation based at least in part on a stored stimulation protocol. By way of example, in an instance in which a front portion of a wearer right foot (e.g., corresponding with the first foot zone  704  and the second foot zone  706 ) is in contact with the ground while the wearer is walking, 90% applied pressure may be detected in the first foot zone  704  and 70% applied pressure may be detected in the second foot zone  706  (e.g., via a tactile pressure sensor). Accordingly, in some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may provide a control indication (e.g., an electric voltage or current supplied by the controller  502 , power source  504 , electrode, and/or other electrical device) to cause the first independent foot stimulation section  701  and the second independent foot stimulation section  703  to provide an amount of stimulation (e.g., compression force) corresponding with the detected amount of applied pressure in each of the first foot zone  704  and second foot zone  706 . In some examples, a stimulation protocol may be based at least in part on the user&#39;s current activity. By way of example, the amount of stimulation provided by the first independent foot stimulation section  701  (e.g., 90% stimulation) may correspond with a detected amount of pressure (e.g., 90% pressure) in the first foot zone  704 . Similarly, the amount of stimulation provided by the second independent foot stimulation section  703  (e.g., 75% stimulation) may correspond with a detected amount of pressure (e.g., 75% pressure) in the first foot zone  704 . Additionally, the range of pressure that can be provided by a particular independent foot stimulation section may be associated with a particular voltage output range (e.g., 0V may be associated with 0% pressure, 5V may be associated with 50% pressure and 10V may be associated with 100% pressure). Thus, an amount of compression force provided may correspond with a stimulation amount/corresponding voltage. In some embodiments, more stimulation may be provided by certain foot zones in response to detecting a particular type of terrain. For example, more stimulation may be provided to a lower foot zone when on an incline and more stimulation may be provided to an upper foot zone during declination. Accordingly, a stimulation amount may be linearly synchronized with a detected amount of pressure. 
     In some embodiments, a wearable device  40  may be used in conjunction with a prosthetic limb. In such examples, positioning sensors may be utilized to provide additional information/data relating to user balance information. By way of example, a perpendicular position of an example prosthetic foot may correspond with a 0V output. In such examples, the wearable device  40  may be utilized to transition a wearer to a prosthetic limb by providing stimulation/new sensations in association therewith. 
     Returning to  FIG.  5   , in certain embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to locally execute various algorithms on at least a portion of the raw and/or processed information/data obtained by the wearable device  40 . For example, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to generate a movement prediction profile with respect to a wearer (e.g., in conjunction with one or more onboard sensors). In other embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  transmits data objects describing at least a portion of the raw and/or processed information/data for processing by the movement prediction computing entity  10 . As part of processing the raw data received from the one or more sensors, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to receive data objects describing additional information (e.g., physiological data, biological data, and the like) from a user computing entity  20  and/or from the movement prediction computing entity  10 . Such additional information may be utilized for determining appropriate control signals in conjunction with a stimulation protocol in order to provide stimulation/feedback. In some embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to transmit (periodically or on request) data objects describing at least a portion of the raw data to the movement prediction computing entity  10  for processing. The controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to obtain (e.g., request and receive) a movement prediction profile data object (e.g., comprising stimulation protocols for a plurality of different user states) from the movement prediction computing entity  10  and store the movement prediction profile data object. The controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may cause one or more independent foot stimulation sections to provide stimulation based at least in part on a determination that the user&#39;s current state satisfies particular criteria associated with a stimulation protocol. In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  comprises a power source  504  (e.g., one or more batteries) to provide power to the onboard controller  502  (e.g., and, in some examples, an electrode, a current generator or circuit operatively coupled to the plurality of independent foot stimulation sections of the wearable device  40 ). 
     In various embodiments, each of the elements of the wearable device  40  (e.g., the first independent foot stimulation section  501 , the second independent foot stimulation section  503 , the third independent foot stimulation section  505 , the controller  502 , the power source  504  and at least one IMU  506 ) is in electronic communication with the wearable device  40  such that it can exchange information/data (e.g., receive and transmit data, data objects and the like) with the wearable device  40  controller  502 /processor. 
     As discussed herein, the controller  502  may comprise one or more control elements for transmitting a control signal to control (e.g., adjust or modify) various operations and operational parameters of the wearable device  40 . For example, the user may control (e.g., override) the wearable device  40 , for example in order to adjust features of or stop operations of the wearable device  40 . In another example, a user may transmit a control signal to adjust stimulation intensity. In some embodiments, machine learning techniques may be utilized to analyze successful guidance and/or self-adjust wearable device  40  parameters. In some embodiments, an alert may be provided to notify a user about an inferred effectiveness of the wearable device  40 . 
     V. Exemplary System Operations 
     As described below, the apparatuses, systems, and methods described herein provide a robust system for providing stimulation via a wearable device. Moreover, various embodiments of the present invention disclose movement prediction machine learning models that can make inferences based at least in part on sensory data in order to perform prediction-based tasks in a more computationally efficient manner than state-of-the-art systems. Accordingly, various embodiments of the present disclosure make substantial technical contributions to the field of monitoring devices and substantially improve state-of-the-art systems. 
       FIG.  8   ,  FIG.  9    and  FIG.  10    are flowcharts illustrating example steps, processes, procedures, and/or operations;  FIG.  11    provides an operational example of generating user interface data. Although the following exemplary operations are described as being performed by one of the wearable device  40  (e.g., via the controller  502 ), the movement prediction computing entity  10 , or the user computing entity  20 , it should be understood that in various embodiments, the operations can be interchangeably performed by other components within the system architecture  100 . 
     Various embodiments may be configured to utilize one or more user profiles (e.g., a user-specific movement prediction profile) to facilitate operations of the wearable device  40 . The user-specific movement prediction profile may comprise data indicative of features of the user (e.g., data indicative of the user&#39;s age, gender, medical conditions, and/or the like, which may be obtained from electronic medical record (EMR) data stored in a data storage area and associated with the user), as well as data indicative of functional results of operations of the wearable device (e.g., data relating to a user&#39;s historical movement information) determined based at least in part on the operation of the sensors of the wearable device  40 . Accordingly, the movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to obtain (e.g., receive) and process data objects describing raw data (sensor data, physiological data, user profile information/data, and/or the like) associated with a user in order to generate a movement prediction profile for the user. An example movement prediction profile may comprise a plurality of movement feature sets defining a set of threshold values and/or features associated with user balance information (e.g., a particular foot position, foot pressure, foot angle, user activity, and/or the like). The movement prediction profile may be stored in conjunction with or otherwise associated with a user profile data object. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to generate or identify, based at least in part on the movement prediction profile and user profile information, a plurality of movement feature sets each corresponding with an activity type and user balance information for the user. Additionally, a movement prediction profile may comprise a plurality of stimulation protocols that are each associated with a movement feature set. Each stimulation protocol may define one or more electrical pulses (e.g., a sequence of electrical pulses) that are associated with a target foot zone and/or at least one of a plurality of independent stimulation sections of a wearable device. Each electrical pulse may be defined by one or more characteristics (i.e., electrical pulse characteristics) including, without limitation, intensity (e.g., defined by amplitude, voltage and/or current characteristics), duration (e.g., pulse duration), wave type and/or wave form. A stimulation protocol may be triggered/initiated in response to detecting one or more movement characteristics associated with a user of a wearable device that are in turn associated with a particular movement feature set. In various embodiments, a stimulation protocol may be delivered to at least one target foot zone via one or more independent stimulation sections positioned adjacent the at least one target foot zone. 
     A movement prediction profile data object may be stored in conjunction with or otherwise associated with a user profile data object. In some embodiments, an operator (e.g., a clinician or the wearer) interfacing with the movement prediction computing entity  10  may modify the movement prediction profile data object and/or stimulation protocols associated with the movement prediction profile data object. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to store and/or in turn provide (e.g., send, transmit) the movement prediction profile data object and the stored stimulation protocols to the wearable device  40 . The movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to obtain (e.g., receive, request) and process a data object describing raw data (e.g., sensor data) collected by sensors of the wearable device  40  (e.g., one or more tactile pressure sensors or IMUs) and/or other sensors and sensing devices associated with the user in order to update the movement prediction profile data object and the stored stimulation protocols for the user. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to process (periodically or in response to receiving particular data) additional data/information associated with the user in order to update (e.g., adjust, change) the movement prediction profile data object and/or stored stimulation protocols for the user. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may periodically provide (e.g., send, transmit) an up-to-date movement prediction profile and stimulation protocols to the wearable device  40 . The movement prediction computing entity  10  may generate a user interface data object corresponding with the movement prediction profile data object and provide (e.g., transmit, send, and/or the like) the user interface data object to one or more a user computing entities  20  or other computing entities (e.g., other computing entities operated by the user, clinicians and/or the like) for presentation by the noted computing entities. 
     Exemplary Techniques for Generating a Movement Prediction Profile 
     In various embodiments, an example wearable device  40  may be configured to generate a movement prediction profile. In various embodiments, a wearable device  40  may be configured to store a movement prediction profile defining a plurality of movement feature sets. The movement prediction profile may be utilized to identify user balance/movement characteristics in addition to a corresponding stimulation protocol. 
     A movement prediction profile may differ between individual users. For example, a standing (e.g., neutral) foot pressure distribution may be different for a first user and second user. Similarly the first user&#39;s gait (and corresponding foot pressure distributions, foot positions and foot angles) may be different from that of the second user. Accordingly, the movement feature sets may differ based at least in part on unique features of each individual user. The wearable device  40  may be configured to generate a movement prediction profile based at least in part on sensor data collected in real-time from one or more sensors of the wearable device. In an instance in which one or more features correspond with a movement feature set or satisfy a movement feature set threshold (e.g., by satisfying one or more foot pressure values for each of a plurality of foot zones), the wearable device  40  may identify and initiate a corresponding stimulation protocol. For example, a stimulation protocol for a standing position in which a user has both feet placed firmly on the ground may comprise providing no stimulation (e.g., 0V). In another example, a stimulation protocol for a walking stride in which a front portion of a user&#39;s right foot is in contact with the ground while a back portion of the right foot is in the air may comprise providing stimulation to one or more target foot zones associated with the front portion of the right foot. Additionally, if the user&#39;s left foot is firmly on the ground, the stimulation protocol may also comprise providing no stimulation to the user&#39;s left foot. Accordingly, while a user is walking within a particular environment/terrain, a wearable device may provide stimulation (e.g., electrical pulses) to one or more target foot zones based at least in part on a current location/position of the user&#39;s foot relative to the ground. Determining whether a movement feature set threshold is satisfied for a particular user may be based at least in part on features of the user, features of the user&#39;s current activity, data indicative of the user&#39;s current location, and/or the like. 
     Referring now to  FIG.  8   , a flowchart diagram illustrating an example process  800  for generating a movement prediction profile by a movement prediction computing entity  10  (or wearable device  40 ) in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided. 
     Beginning at step/operation  802 , movement prediction computing entity  10  obtains an event data object. The event data object may be a data object storing and/or providing access to information/data that is related a user of a wearable device, in particular user balance and/or user movement information. In some embodiments, an event data object may describe one or more recorded events associated with a user of a wearable device. In some embodiments, the event data object may comprise sensor data (e.g., foot pressure distribution information/data, foot position and foot angle information/data, location information/data, and/or the like) associated with a user&#39;s foot/feet, the user&#39;s movements and the user&#39;s environment. In some embodiments, the event data object may be provided by a wearable device  40  in electronic communication with the movement prediction computing entity  10 . 
     Subsequent to step/operation  802 , the process  800  proceeds to step/operation  804 . At step/operation  804 , movement prediction computing entity  10  identifies based at least in part on analysis of the event data object, one or more movement characteristics (e.g., foot pressure distributions, foot angles, and/or foot positions) associated with a particular user state and/or user environment. 
     Subsequent to step/operation  804 , the process  800  proceeds to step/operation  806 . At step/operation  806 , movement prediction computing entity  10  generates, using a movement prediction machine learning model, a movement prediction profile based at least in part on the one or more movement characteristics. For example, the movement prediction computing entity  10  may identify a plurality of movement feature sets defining one or more movement characteristics associated with each user state and/or user environment. By way of example, a movement feature set may be or comprise a gradient representation of pressure distribution across at least a portion of a user&#39;s foot. For instance, a first movement feature set (e.g., foot pressure distribution) may be associated with a user&#39;s standing position when both feet are in contact with the ground. In another example, a second movement feature set may be associated with a user&#39;s walking stride. The movement prediction profile machine learning model may refer to a data object that describes steps/operations, hyper-parameters, and/or parameters of a machine learning model/algorithm that is configured to generate data needed to infer/generate a movement profile with respect to a person (e.g., a user of a wearable device). The steps/operations of the movement prediction machine learning model may lead to performing one or more prediction-based tasks (e.g., providing the movement prediction profile for use in conjunction with a wearable device in order to provide stimulation while a user is walking). In some embodiments, the movement prediction machine learning model may comprise a first sub-model that is configured to generate a movement prediction profile comprising one or more movement feature sets. In some embodiments, the movement prediction machine learning model may comprise a second sub-model that is configured to generate a plurality of stimulation protocols that are each associated with a particular movement feature set. The movement prediction machine learning model may be trained based at least in part on a ground truth event data object (e.g., describing user-specific data). By way of example, the movement prediction machine learning model/algorithm may be a neural network, a convolutional neural network (CNN), a recurrent neural network (RNN), and/or the like. 
     Subsequent to step/operation  806 , at step/operation  808 , movement prediction computing entity  10  performs one or more prediction-based tasks. As noted above, the one or more prediction-based tasks may comprise providing the movement prediction profile for use in conjunction with a wearable device  40  in order to provide stimulation to a wearer. 
     Exemplary Wearable Device Operations 
     Referring now to  FIG.  9   , a flowchart diagram illustrating an example process  900  performed by a wearable device  40  in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided. 
     Beginning at step/operation  902 , the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may be configured to generate an event data object for a wearer of the wearable device  40 . The event data object may be a data object storing and/or providing access to information/data with respect to a user of a wearable device. In some embodiments, an event data object may describe one or more recorded events that have been recorded to have occurred in relation to a user of a wearable device. In some embodiments, the event data object may comprise sensor data associated with user balance information and/or movement information. 
     Subsequent to generating the event data object at step/operation  902 , at step/operation  904 , the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  provides the event data object to the movement prediction computing entity  10 . In some embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may obtain (e.g., collect) user sensor data via one or more sensors (e.g., IMUs, tactile pressure sensors, and/or the like) of a wearable device  40  for an initial time period and generate and transmit a user sensor data object describing at least a portion of the obtained user sensor data to the movement prediction computing entity  10 . 
     At step/operation  906 , the controller  502  of the wearable device obtains (e.g., requests, receives, or the like) a movement prediction profile data object comprising stimulation protocols from the movement prediction computing entity  10 . The controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may, in certain embodiments, receive an applicable stored user profile for a user based at least in part on user input received via a user interface of the wearable device  40  (or based at least in part on user input data received from a user computing entity associated with the wearable device  40 ). It should be understood that an appropriate user profile data object may be identified via any of a variety of alternative mechanisms, such as by identifying a user profile associated with a particular user computing entity (e.g., the user profile of a designated owner of a user computing entity) that is within communication range of the wearable device  40 . In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may request the user profile data object from the movement prediction computing entity  10 . The controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may periodically request an updated movement prediction profile data object for the wearer of the wearable device  40  from the movement prediction computing entity  10 . In some embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  may generate at least a portion of data stored within the movement prediction profile data object. In one example, the controller of the wearable device  40  may generate an initial movement prediction profile data object for a user based at least in part on evaluation of user sensor data collected via one or more sensors of the wearable device  40  while the user is wearing the wearable device  40 . In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may determine initial operating parameters and/or generate a movement prediction profile data object by monitoring the user (e.g., obtaining and analyzing sensor data collected via one or more sensors of the wearable device  40  for an initial time period). In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may provide (e.g., transmit, send) an event data object to the movement prediction computing entity  10  for generating and storing the movement prediction profile data object within a data storage area associated with the movement prediction computing entity  10 . Subsequent to periodically receiving new information and/or data, the wearable device  40  or movement prediction computing entity  10  may update the movement prediction profile data object stored in conjunction with a user profile data object and provide (e.g., transmit) an updated movement prediction profile data object periodically and/or on request. 
     Subsequent to obtaining a movement prediction profile data object at step/operation  906 , at step/operation  908 , the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  provides stimulation (e.g., via a plurality of independent foot stimulation sections) based at least in part on the movement prediction profile data object and stimulation protocols associated therewith. For example, the wearable device  40  may identify a threshold number of features from a movement feature set associated with real-time movement characteristics detected via one or more onboard sensors of the wearable device  40 . In some embodiments, the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  analyzes at least a portion of sensor data collected by one or more sensors of the wearable device  40  in order to identify one or more movement features. The wearable device  40  may store at least a portion of the sensor data and/or results of the analysis in conjunction with the movement prediction profile data object. The wearable device  40  may store the sensor data in association with sensor identifier information/data (e.g., metadata, timestamp data and/or the like). 
     Exemplary Techniques for Updating a Movement Prediction Profile 
     Referring now to  FIG.  10   , a flowchart diagram illustrating an example process  1000  for providing an updated movement prediction profile data object by a movement prediction computing entity  10  or another computing entity, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided. 
     Beginning at step/operation  1002 , the movement prediction computing entity  10  obtains (e.g., receives) the event data object (e.g., from the wearable device  40 ). 
     Subsequent to obtaining the event data object at step/operation  1002 , at step/operation  1004 , the movement prediction computing entity  10  obtains a user profile data object describing user information/data. In some embodiments, the user profile data object may be provided by a remote computing entity (e.g., a remote computing entity storing user EMR data). The user profile data object may describe various types of information associated with a particular user including, but not limited to, age, gender, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), weight distribution and/or the like. In some embodiments, user profile data objects describing user information may be provided by one or more computing entities, one or more other wearable or health management devices (e.g., fitness trackers), a mobile device and/or the like. In some embodiments, step/operation  1004  may be performed as part of registering a user. For example, a user profile data object for a user may be generated/created as part of registration. However, as will be recognized, a user profile may already exist and be stored in a user profile database. In such a case, registration may link the user to an existing user profile. Each user profile may be identifiable via one or more identifiers (e.g., social security numbers, patient IDs, member IDs, participant IDs, usernames, one or more globally unique identifiers (GUIDs), universally unique identifiers (UUIDs), and/or the like) that are configured to uniquely identify the user profile. As part of registering a user, movement prediction computing entity  10  may obtain (e.g., request and receive) various data objects describing information/data associated with a user. In various embodiments, movement prediction computing entity  10  receives one or more data objects describing the user information/data for generation/creation of and/or storage in conjunction with a user profile data object. In some embodiments, a user&#39;s EMR may be associated with and/or otherwise stored in conjunction with the user profile data object. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may store the event data object in conjunction with the user profile data object. 
     Subsequent to obtaining the user profile data object at step/operation  1004 , at step/operation  1006 , based at least in part on the user information stored in a user profile data object and the event data object associated therewith, the movement prediction computing entity  10  determines a plurality of stimulation protocols where each stimulation protocol is associated with a particular movement feature set. The movement feature set may be a set of values/amounts such as foot angle, foot position and foot pressure distribution values. The movement feature set may be influenced by and determined based at least in part on additional user parameters (e.g., age, gender, body weight, height, historical movement information/data, and/or the like). 
     Subsequent to determining a plurality of stimulation protocols at step/operation  1006 , at step/operation  1008 , the movement prediction computing entity generates a movement prediction profile data object. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to periodically update the movement prediction profile data object as additional data for the user (e.g., changes in the user profile data object) is obtained so as to maintain an updated movement prediction profile data object for the user. In some embodiments, the wearable device  40  may be configured to determine the movement prediction profile data object for a user and provide (e.g., transmit, send) the movement prediction profile data object to the movement prediction computing entity  10 . 
     Subsequent to generating a movement prediction profile data object at step/operation  1008 , at step/operation  1010 , the movement prediction computing entity  10  stores the movement prediction profile data object in association with the user profile data object. As noted, the movement prediction profile data object for a user may be periodically updated (e.g., as new data is provided to a user&#39;s EMR, as the wearable device  40  is utilized over time, and/or the like). Accordingly, the controller  502  may implement a feedback loop that updates the movement prediction profile data object for a user based at least in part on a determined accuracy relating to effectiveness of stimulation protocols and/or user provided input. For example, the movement prediction computing entity  10  may determine whether a duration or intensity of an electrical pulse should be increased or decreased based at least in part on whether the user indicates that the stimulation provided was adequate or whether the user&#39;s overall amount of movement is increasing or decreasing over time. For example, if a user progressively takes fewer steps or walks less over a time period (e.g., one week) the movement prediction computing entity may determine that the stimulation being provided is inadequate and may increase the intensity and/or duration of electrical pulses associated with the plurality stimulation protocols for the user to provide increased stimulation and encourage the user to move/walk more frequently. 
     Subsequent to storing the movement prediction profile data object at step/operation  1010 , at step/operation  1012 , the movement prediction computing entity  10  provides (e.g., transmits, sends and/or the like) the movement prediction profile data object to the controller  502  of the wearable device  40  to facilitate operations. 
     At step/operation  1014 , movement prediction computing entity  10  periodically obtains an updated movement prediction profile data object describing user information and/sensor data obtained by controller  502  of the wearable device  40  including, e.g., user response data, biometric data, and/or the like. 
     Subsequent to step/operation  1014 , at step/operation  1016 , in response to receiving an updated user profile data object, the movement prediction computing entity  10  updates the movement prediction profile data object and/or stimulation protocols for the user which are stored in conjunction with user profile data object. The movement prediction computing entity  10  may update the movement prediction profile data object and/or stimulation protocols based at least in part on new user EMR data, biometric data and/or sensor data provided by other computing entities and/or the like. In so doing, the movement prediction computing entity  10  can refine the outputs generated by the wearable device  40  over time and provide more effective stimulation. Additionally, the most effective stimulation protocols for a particular user, and for particular population subgroups sharing certain characteristics (e.g., age, weight, gender, known health conditions) can be identified over time. In certain embodiments, the movement prediction computing entity  10  may be configured to refine one or more stimulation protocols for a user using a movement prediction machine learning model (e.g., a trained neural network). Moreover, updated information based at least in part on new user features (e.g., weight loss or weight gain, medical history including recent medical procedures and/or the like) can be provided for updating the movement prediction profile data object, which may be utilized to refine stimulation protocols to be utilized for certain population subgroups. In some embodiments, the user computing entity  20  and/or one or more other computing devices may be are configured to obtain (e.g., monitor, detect, and/or the like) additional body data and provide data object(s) associated therewith. The body data may be or comprise physiological information/data, biometric information/data, heart rate data, oxygen saturation data, pulse rate data, body temperature data, breath rate data, perspiration data, blood pressure data, neural activity data, cardiovascular data, pulmonary data, and/or various other types of information/data which may be relevant for updating the movement prediction profile data object storing the plurality of stimulation protocols for a user.
