Effects of robotic rehabilitation on recovery of hand functions in acute stroke: A preliminary randomized controlled study.

Acta neurologica Scandinavica
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMG-driven robotic rehabilitation on hand motor functions and daily living activities of patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Soft robotics and functional electrical stimulation advances for restoring hand function in people with SCI: a narrative review, clinical guidelines and future directions.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Recovery of hand function is crucial for the independence of people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Wearable devices based on soft robotics (SR) or functional electrical stimulation (FES) have been employed to assist the recovery of hand f...

Deep Learning, Mining, and Collaborative Clustering to Identify Flexible Daily Activities Patterns.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The monitoring of the daily life activities routine is beneficial, especially in old age. It can provide relevant information on the person's health state and wellbeing and can help identify deviations that signal care deterioration or incidents that...

Improving Recognition of Overlapping Activities with Less Interclass Variations in Smart Homes through Clustering-Based Classification.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
The systems of sensing technology along with machine learning techniques provide a robust solution in a smart home due to which health monitoring, elderly care, and independent living take advantage. This study addresses the overlapping problem in ac...

Soft, Lightweight Wearable Robots to Support the Upper Limb in Activities of Daily Living: A Feasibility Study on Chronic Stroke Patients.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Stroke can be a devastating condition that impairs the upper limb and reduces mobility. Wearable robots can aid impaired users by supporting performance of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). In the past decade, soft devices have become popular due to...

A Neural Network Model of Smart Aging Combining Family Structure Change Factors.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
In this paper, we analyze the changes in family structure and explore the changes in detail, based on which we construct a neural network model of smart aging. Based on the gender perspective, the individual growth model in the multilayer linear mode...

Inertial Data-Based AI Approaches for ADL and Fall Recognition.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The recognition of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) has been a widely debated topic, with applications in a vast range of fields. ADL recognition can be accomplished by processing data from wearable sensors, specially located at the lower trunk, whic...

The perspectives of older adults with mild cognitive impairment and their caregivers on the use of socially assistive robots in healthcare: exploring factors that influence attitude in a pre-implementation stage.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
BACKGROUND: Due to increasing age and an increasing prevalence rate of neurocognitive disorders such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia, independent living may become challenging. The use of socially assistive robots (SARs) is one soluti...

A Systematic Study on Electromyography-Based Hand Gesture Recognition for Assistive Robots Using Deep Learning and Machine Learning Models.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Upper limb amputation severely affects the quality of life and the activities of daily living of a person. In the last decade, many robotic hand prostheses have been developed which are controlled by using various sensing technologies such as artific...
