An adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for predicting the risks of low back disorders due to manual material lifting jobs

作者：

Highlights：

• The study builds and tests several ANFIS models on a seminal Marras data set.

• The models classify the risk of low back disorders (LBDs) due to lifting tasks.

• Our results are less optimistic than those reported in several other studies.

• We offer insights into how the risk factors that contribute to LBDs act.

• These insights could help to establish some guidelines to prevent injuries.
