Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Recording and stimulating from the peripheral nervous system are becoming important components in a new generation of bioelectronics systems. Although neurostimulation has seen a history of successful chronic applications in humans, peripheral nerve recording in humans chronically remains a challenge. Multi-contact nerve cuff electrode configurations have the potential to improve recording selectivity. We introduce the idea of using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to associate recordings of individual naturally evoked compound action potentials (CAPs) with neural pathways of interest, by exploiting the spatiotemporal patterns in multi-contact nerve cuff recordings.
