The Effects of Robotic Exoskeleton Gait Training on Improving Walking Adaptability in Persons with MS.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The goal of the present pilot investigation is to examine the effects of 8 weeks of supervised, over-ground gait training using a robotic exoskeleton (RE) compared with a control condition (conventional gait therapy, CGT) in persons with MS with ambu...

Detecting Post-Stroke Aphasia Via Brain Responses to Speech in a Deep Learning Framework.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Aphasia, a language disorder primarily caused by a stroke, is traditionally diagnosed using behavioral language tests. However, these tests are time-consuming, require manual interpretation by trained clinicians, suffer from low ecological validity, ...

Heart Rate Estimation from Neck Photoplethysmography using FFT-Based Scoring and a Shallow Neural Network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Heart rate (HR) is one of the most important vital signs to monitor. Constantly monitoring HR makes it important to have an easy-to-use system that is able to achieve clinically acceptable measurement accuracy. Depending on the monitoring device's ul...

Predicting Sleep Quality via Unsupervised Learning of Cardiac Activity.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
While highly important for a person's mood, productivity, and physical performance, perceived sleep quality is challenging to model and, thus, predict with passive means such as physiological and behavioral signals alone. In this paper, we propose a ...

Reconstruction of Continuous Hand Grasp Movement from EEG Using Deep Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a promising neu-rotechnology offering non-muscular control of external devices, such as neuroprostheses and robotic exoskeletons. A new yet under-explored BCI control paradigm is Motion Trajectory Prediction (MTP). W...

Experimental Evaluation of Machine Learning Models for Gait Segmentation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Accurate estimation of the gait phase is extremely important in exoskeleton control, as various stages in the gait cycle require different control objectives. This study involved the evaluation of seven machine learning models utilizing inertial meas...

Pupil-Linked Arousal is Predictive of Team Performance in a Virtual Reality (VR) Sensory-Motor Task.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The performance of teams can be significantly affected by the physiological arousal of each team member. Pupil dynamics has been shown to index, among other things, arousal. In this paper, we describe a multi-person virtual reality (VR) based sensory...

A Novel Wrist Device for Characterizing the Components of Proprioceptive Acuity.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Proprioception is important in human motor control but can be impaired by neurological disease. Unfortunately, our understanding of proprioceptive deficit is very limited, especially for important joints such as the wrist. To address this gap, we hav...

Transformer-based Model Captures Neural Representation Differences between Nouns and Verbs in Spoken Narratives.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Nouns and verbs constitute the fundamental elements of human language systems. Abundant studies have demonstrated that nouns and verbs exhibit different representations in both biological brains and various advanced deep neural networks (DNNs). Here,...

Artificial touch feedback using microstimulation of human somatosensory cortex to convey grip force from a robotic hand.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Invasive brain-machine interfaces can help restore function through the control of external devices while the addition of intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) can elicit sensations of touch and help provide further benefits for individuals living wi...
