Optimal pitching axis location of flapping wings for efficient hovering flight.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Sep 1, 2017
Flapping wings can pitch passively about their pitching axes due to their flexibility, inertia, and aerodynamic loads. A shift in the pitching axis location can dynamically alter the aerodynamic loads, which in turn changes the passive pitching motio...
Effect of feedback from a socially interactive humanoid robot on reaching kinematics in children with and without cerebral palsy: A pilot study.
Developmental neurorehabilitation
Aug 17, 2017
PURPOSE: To examine whether children with or without cerebral palsy (CP) would follow a humanoid robot's (i.e., Darwin) feedback to move their arm faster when playing virtual reality (VR) games.
Applying machine learning to identify autistic adults using imitation: An exploratory study.
PloS one
Aug 16, 2017
Autism spectrum condition (ASC) is primarily diagnosed by behavioural symptoms including social, sensory and motor aspects. Although stereotyped, repetitive motor movements are considered during diagnosis, quantitative measures that identify kinemati...
An expert system feedback tool improves the reliability of clinical gait kinematics for older adults with lower limb osteoarthritis.
Gait & posture
Aug 10, 2017
Recently, an expert system was developed to provide feedback to examiners with the aim of improving reliability of marker-based gait analysis. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of this novel feedback tool in improving...
Leg-local neural mechanisms for searching and learning enhance robotic locomotion.
Biological cybernetics
Aug 7, 2017
Adapting motor output based on environmental forces is critical for successful locomotion in the real world. Arthropods use at least two neural mechanisms to adjust muscle activation while walking based on detected forces. Mechanism 1 uses negative f...
Developmental Approach for Behavior Learning Using Primitive Motion Skills.
International journal of neural systems
Aug 6, 2017
Imitation learning through self-exploration is essential in developing sensorimotor skills. Most developmental theories emphasize that social interactions, especially understanding of observed actions, could be first achieved through imitation, yet t...
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...

A novel approach to spinal 3-D kinematic assessment using inertial sensors: Towards effective quantitative evaluation of low back pain in clinical settings.
Computers in biology and medicine
Aug 4, 2017
This paper presents a novel approach for evaluating LBP in various settings. The proposed system uses cost-effective inertial sensors, in conjunction with pattern recognition techniques, for identifying sensitive classifiers towards discriminate iden...
A flight-phase terrain following control strategy for stable and robust hopping of a one-legged robot under large terrain variations.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Aug 4, 2017
This work demonstrates a simple, once per step, flight-control method for robots running on a planar unknown rough-terrain environment. The robot used to exemplify these control strategies is the ParkourBot, a spring loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP)-b...
Non-iterative geometric approach for inverse kinematics of redundant lead-module in a radiosurgical snake-like robot.
Biomedical engineering online
Aug 1, 2017
BACKGROUND: Snake-like robot is an emerging form of serial-link manipulator with the morphologic design of biological snakes. The redundant robot can be used to assist medical experts in accessing internal organs with minimal or no invasion. Several ...
