Feature evaluation for myoelectric pattern recognition of multiple nearby reaching targets.

Medical engineering & physics
Intention detection of the reaching movement is considerable for myoelectric human and machine collaboration applications. A comprehensive set of handcrafted features was mined from windows of electromyogram (EMG) of the upper-limb muscles while reac...

EMG-based prediction of step direction for a better control of lower limb wearable devices.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Lower-limb wearable devices can significantly improve the quality of life of subjects suffering from debilitating conditions, such as amputations, neurodegenerative disorders, and stroke-related impairments. Current control...

Post-stroke hand gesture recognition via one-shot transfer learning using prototypical networks.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In-home rehabilitation systems are a promising, potential alternative to conventional therapy for stroke survivors. Unfortunately, physiological differences between participants and sensor displacement in wearable sensors pose a significa...

A portable inflatable soft wearable robot to assist the shoulder during industrial work.

Science robotics
Repetitive overhead tasks during factory work can cause shoulder injuries resulting in impaired health and productivity loss. Soft wearable upper extremity robots have the potential to be effective injury prevention tools with minimal restrictions us...

Exoskeleton rehabilitation robot training for balance and lower limb function in sub-acute stroke patients: a pilot, randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
PURPOSE: This pilot study aimed to investigate the effects of REX exoskeleton rehabilitation robot training on the balance and lower limb function in patients with sub-acute stroke.

A Multimodal Assistive-Robotic-Arm Control System to Increase Independence After Tetraplegia.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Following tetraplegia, independence for completing essential daily tasks, such as opening doors and eating, significantly declines. Assistive robotic manipulators (ARMs) could restore independence, but typically input devices for these manipulators r...

Dual Stream Long Short-Term Memory Feature Fusion Classifier for Surface Electromyography Gesture Recognition.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Gesture recognition using electromyography (EMG) signals has prevailed recently in the field of human-computer interactions for controlling intelligent prosthetics. Currently, machine learning and deep learning are the two most commonly employed meth...

Deep Learning for Electromyographic Lower-Limb Motion Signal Classification Using Residual Learning.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Electromyographic (EMG) signals have gained popularity for controlling prostheses and exoskeletons, particularly in the field of upper limbs for stroke patients. However, there is a lack of research in the lower limb area, and standardized open-sourc...

Task-Oriented Training by a Personalized Electromyography-Driven Soft Robotic Hand in Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
BACKGROUND: Intensive task-oriented training has shown promise in enhancing distal motor function among patients with chronic stroke. A personalized electromyography (EMG)-driven soft robotic hand was developed to assist task-oriented object-manipula...

Investigation of Motor Learning Effects Using a Hybrid Rehabilitation System Based on Motion Estimation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Upper-limb paralysis requires extensive rehabilitation to recover functionality for everyday living, and such assistance can be supported with robot technology. Against such a background, we have proposed an electromyography (EMG)-driven hybrid rehab...
