Differentiating Motor Coordination and Position Sense in Children with Cerebral Palsy and Typically Developing Populations Through Robotic Assessments.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Motor function and coordination improve as children age. Robotic assessments of motor function and coordination have been shown to be repeatable, objective, and accurate. Additionally, robotic assessments have been used to measure and quantify defici...

Temporal dependency in automatic sleep scoring via deep learning based architectures: An empirical study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The present study evaluates how effectively a deep learning based sleep scoring system does encode the temporal dependency from raw polysomnography signals. An exhaustive range of neural networks, including state of the art architecture, have been us...

Impact of Encapsulation Tissue Growth on Selective Recording in Nerve Cuff Electrodes: A Simulation Study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Peripheral nerve interfaces (PNIs) allow us to extract motor, sensory and autonomic information from the nervous system and use it as control signals in neuroprosthetic and neuromodulation systems. Recent efforts have aimed to improve the recording s...

Classifying cross-frequency coupling pattern in epileptogenic tissues by convolutional neural network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The phase-amplitude coupling in EEG signal of different frequencies is considered as a useful biomarker in delineating epileptogenic tissues, but some physiological processes can also generate phase-amplitude coupling pattern, such as memory process....

A Paediatric 3D-Printed Soft Robotic Hand Prosthesis for Children with Upper Limb Loss.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Designing prosthetic hands for children is challenging due to the limited space for electronics and the need of reducing the cost to cater for the constant growth of their hand. In this paper, we proposed an anthropomorphic hand prosthesis for childr...

Real-time finger force prediction via parallel convolutional neural networks: a preliminary study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Continuous and accurate decoding of intended motions is critical for human-machine interactions. Here, we developed a novel approach for real-time continuous prediction of forces in individual fingers using parallel convolutional neural networks (CNN...

Four-Way Classification of EEG Responses To Virtual Robot Navigation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Studies have shown the possibility of using brain signals that are automatically generated while observing a navigation task as feedback for semi-autonomous control of a robot. This allows the robot to learn quasi-optimal routes to intended targets. ...

Decoding movement direction from cortical microelectrode recordings using an LSTM-based neural network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) allow individuals to communicate with computers using neural signals, and Kalman Filter (KF) are prevailingly used to decode movement directions from these neural signals. In this paper, we implemented a multi-layer lo...
