Neuromodulation via spinal stimulation has been investigated for improving motor function and reducing spasticity after spinal cord injury (SCI) in humans. Despite the reported heterogeneity of outcomes, few investigations have attempted to discern c...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) motor mapping is a safe, non-invasive method used to study corticomotor organization and intervention-induced plasticity. Reliability of resting maps is well established, but understudied for active maps and un...
Hand gesture recognition systems (HGR) based on electromyography signals (EMGs) and inertial measurement unit signals (IMUs) have been studied for different applications in recent years. Most commonly, cutting-edge HGR methods are based on supervised...
Joint dynamic properties play essential roles in a wide range of biomechanical movement control. This paper develops a device with a novel mechatronic design to apply small-amplitude perturbations to the human knee. Surface Electromyography is employ...
