Man-machine interaction-based motion control of a robotic walker.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: The aging population brings the problem of healthcare and dyskinesia. The lack of mobility extremely affects stroke patient's activities of daily living (ADL) and decreases their quality of life. To assist these mobility-limited people, a...

Robotic Pet Use Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults.

The journals of gerontology. Series B, Psychological sciences and social sciences
OBJECTIVE: The primary purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy of robotic pets in alleviating loneliness for older adults.

Skeleton data pre-processing for human pose recognition using Neural Network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Automatic monitoring of daily living activities can greatly improve the possibility of living autonomously for frail individuals. Pose recognition based on skeleton tracking data is promising for identifying dangerous situations and trigger external ...

Factors affecting the usability of an assistive soft robotic glove after stroke or multiple sclerosis.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
OBJECTIVE: To explore the usability and effects of an assistive soft robotic glove in the home setting after stroke or multiple sclerosis.

A Deep Learning Approach for Human Action Recognition Using Skeletal Information.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology
In this paper we present an approach toward human action detection for activities of daily living (ADLs) that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN). The network is trained on discrete Fourier transform (DFT) images that result from raw sensor rea...

A Machine Learning Framework for Assessment of Cognitive and Functional Impairments in Alzheimer's Disease: Data Preprocessing and Analysis.

The journal of prevention of Alzheimer's disease
The neuropsychological scores and Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ) are significant to measure the cognitive and functional domain of the patients affected by the Alzheimer's Disease. Further, there are standardized dataset available today th...

Bio-inspired Model of Humanoid Robot for Ascending Movement.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Stair climbing is one of the important daily life activities that biped robots have to carry out. However, the number of researches study the ascending movement mechanisms and its stability is low. In this study, we have inspired by human ascending m...
