Wireless intraoral tongue control of an assistive robotic arm for individuals with tetraplegia.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Nov 6, 2017
BACKGROUND: For an individual with tetraplegia assistive robotic arms provide a potentially invaluable opportunity for rehabilitation. However, there is a lack of available control methods to allow these individuals to fully control the assistive arm...
Inclusion of service robots in the daily lives of frail older users: A step-by-step definition procedure on users' requirements.
Archives of gerontology and geriatrics
Oct 31, 2017
The implications for the inclusion of robots in the daily lives of frail older adults, especially in relation to these population needs, have not been extensively studied. The "Multi-Role Shadow Robotic System for Independent Living" (SRS) project ha...
Pronation and supination analysis based on biomechanical signals from Parkinson's disease patients.
Artificial intelligence in medicine
Oct 16, 2017
In this work, a fuzzy inference model to evaluate hands pronation/supination exercises during the MDS-UPDRS motor examination is proposed to analyze different extracted features from the bio-mechanical signals acquired from patients with Parkinson's ...
Homecare Robots to Improve Health and Well-Being in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Early Stage Dementia: Results From a Scoping Study.
Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
Sep 30, 2017
OBJECTIVES: This scoping study is the first step of a multiphase, international project aimed at designing a homecare robot that can provide functional support, track physical and psychological well-being, and deliver therapeutic intervention specifi...

Science and engineering ethics
Sep 22, 2017
The use of Intelligent Assistive Technology (IAT) in dementia care opens the prospects of reducing the global burden of dementia and enabling novel opportunities to improve the lives of dementia patients. However, with current adoption rates being re...
Stakeholders' Perceptions Sought to Inform the Development of a Low-Cost Mobile Robot for Older Adults: A Qualitative Descriptive Study.
Clinical nursing research
Sep 16, 2017
Creative solutions are needed to support community-dwelling older adults residing in a variety of settings including their house, apartment, or Supportive Apartment Living (SAL) to promote independence and reduce the risk of nursing home replacement....
Predicting activities of daily living for cancer patients using an ontology-guided machine learning methodology.
Journal of biomedical semantics
Sep 16, 2017
BACKGROUND: Bio-ontologies are becoming increasingly important in knowledge representation and in the machine learning (ML) fields. This paper presents a ML approach that incorporates bio-ontologies and its application to the SEER-MHOS dataset to dis...
Measuring Functional Arm Movement after Stroke Using a Single Wrist-Worn Sensor and Machine Learning.
Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
Aug 4, 2017
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Trials of restorative therapies after stroke and clinical rehabilitation require relevant and objective efficacy end points; real-world upper extremity (UE) functional use is an attractive candidate. We present a novel, inexpe...
