Superior arm-movement decoding from cortex with a new, unsupervised-learning algorithm.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work is to improve the state of the art for motor-control with a brain-machine interface (BMI). BMIs use neurological recording devices and decoding algorithms to transform brain activity directly into real-time control of a machine, archetypically a robotic arm or a cursor. The standard procedure treats neural activity-vectors of spike counts in small temporal windows-a...

Brain-machine interfaces for controlling lower-limb powered robotic systems.

OBJECTIVE: Lower-limb, powered robotics systems such as exoskeletons and orthoses have emerged as novel robotic interventions to assist or rehabilitate people with walking disabilities. These devices are generally controlled by certain physical maneuvers, for example pressing buttons or shifting body weight. Although effective, these control schemes are not what humans naturally use. The usability...
