Modeling and performance evaluation of a robotic treatment couch for tumor tracking.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
Tumor motion during radiation therapy increases the irradiation of healthy tissue. However, this problem may be mitigated by moving the patient via the treatment couch such that the tumor motion relative to the beam is minimized. The treatment couch ...

Fractal and twin SVM-based handgrip recognition for healthy subjects and trans-radial amputees using myoelectric signal.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
Identifying functional handgrip patterns using surface electromygram (sEMG) signal recorded from amputee residual muscle is required for controlling the myoelectric prosthetic hand. In this study, we have computed the signal fractal dimension (FD) an...

Random forests in non-invasive sensorimotor rhythm brain-computer interfaces: a practical and convenient non-linear classifier.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
There is general agreement in the brain-computer interface (BCI) community that although non-linear classifiers can provide better results in some cases, linear classifiers are preferable. Particularly, as non-linear classifiers often involve a numbe...

An EEG/EOG-based hybrid brain-neural computer interaction (BNCI) system to control an exoskeleton for the paralyzed hand.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
The loss of hand function can result in severe physical and psychosocial impairment. Thus, compensation of a lost hand function using assistive robotics that can be operated in daily life is very desirable. However, versatile, intuitive, and reliable...

A proposal for patient-tailored supervision of movement performance during end-effector-based robot-assisted rehabilitation of the upper extremities.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
Millions of people worldwide suffer from stroke each year. One way to assist patients cost-effectively during their rehabilitation process is using end-effector-based robot-assisted rehabilitation. Such systems allow patients to use their own movemen...

Comparative analysis of breast cancer detection in mammograms and thermograms.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
In this paper, we present a system based on feature extraction techniques for detecting abnormal patterns in digital mammograms and thermograms. A comparative study of texture-analysis methods is performed for three image groups: mammograms from the ...
