الوصف: Musculoskeletal models (MSKMs) are used to estimate the muscle and joint forces involved in human locomotion, often associated with the onset of degenerative musculoskeletal pathologies (e.g., osteoarthritis). Subject-specific MSKMs offer more accurate predictions than their scaled-generic counterparts. This accuracy is achieved through time-consuming personalisation of models and manual tuning procedures that suffer from potential repeatability errors, hence limiting the wider application of this modelling approach. In this work we have developed a methodology relying on Sobol’s sensitivity analysis (SSA) for ranking muscles based on their importance to the determination of the joint contact forces (JCFs) in a cohort of older women. The thousands of data points required for SSA are generated using Gaussian Process emulators, a Bayesian technique to infer the input–output relationship between nonlinear models from a limited number of observations. Results show that there is a pool of muscles whose personalisation has little effects on the predictions of JCFs, allowing for a reduced but still accurate representation of the musculoskeletal system within shorter timeframes. Furthermore, joint forces in subject-specific and generic models are influenced by different sets of muscles, suggesting the existence of a model-specific component to the sensitivity analysis.
