The coordination of muscles in human locomotion is commonly understood as the integration of motor modules known as muscle synergies. Recent research has delved into the adaptation of muscle synergies during the acquisition of new motor skills. Howev...
The global aging trend is becoming increasingly severe, and the demand for life assistance and medical rehabilitation for frail and disabled elderly people is growing. As the best solution for assisting limb movement, guiding limb rehabilitation, and...
The gait analysis has been applied in many fields, such as the assessment of falling, force evaluation in sports, and gait disorder detection for neuromuscular diseases. Its main recording techniques include video cameras and wearable sensors. Howeve...
There is increasing interest in using assistive robotic devices to support motor re-learning and recovery in individuals with neurological impairments. These robots aim to enhance overall motor control by providing adaptive assistance. However, using...

Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a widely employed bio-signal that captures human muscle activity via electrodes placed on the skin. Several studies have proposed methods to remove sEMG contaminants, as non-invasive measurements render sEMG suscept...
Sarcopenia, affecting between 1-29% of the older population, is characterized by an age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. Reduced muscle strength, either in terms of quantity or quality, and poor physical performance are among the cr...
Chronic pain is prevalent and disproportionately impacts adults with a lower quality of life. Although subjective self-reporting is the "gold standard" for pain assessment, tools are needed to objectively monitor and account for inter-individual diff...
