BACKGROUND: Machine-learning-based myocontrol of prosthetic devices suffers from a high rate of abandonment due to dissatisfaction with the training procedure and with the reliability of day-to-day control. Incremental myocontrol is a promising appro...
Muscle electrophysiology has emerged as a powerful tool to drive human machine interfaces, with many new recent applications outside the traditional clinical domains, such as robotics and virtual reality. However, more sophisticated, functional, and ...
In recent years, the neural control mechanisms of the arms and legs during human bipedal walking have been clarified. Rhythmic leg stepping leads to suppression of monosynaptic reflex excitability in forearm muscles. However, it is unknown whether an...

The impact of emotions on health, especially stress, is receiving increasing attention. It is important to provide a non-invasive affect detection system that can be continuously monitored for a long period of time. Multi-sensor fusion strategies can...
The lack of intuitive and active human-robot interaction makes it difficult to use upper-limb-assistive devices. In this paper, we propose a novel learning-based controller that intuitively uses onset motion to predict the desired end-point position ...
In the field of the muscle-computer interface, the most challenging task is extracting patterns from complex surface electromyography (sEMG) signals to improve the performance of myoelectric pattern recognition. To address this problem, a two-stage a...
The central nervous system (CNS) exploits anticipatory (APAs) and compensatory (CPAs) postural adjustments to maintain the balance. The postural adjustments comprising stability of the center of mass (CoM) and the pressure distribution of the body in...
Maintaining balance throughout daily activities is challenging because of the unstable nature of the human body. For instance, a person's delayed reaction times limit their ability to restore balance after disturbances. Wearable exoskeletons have the...

sEMG-based gesture recognition is widely applied in human-machine interaction system by its unique advantages. However, the accuracy of recognition drops significantly as electrodes shift. Besides, in applications such as VR, virtual hands should be ...
Recently, human-machine interfaces (HMI) that make life convenient have been studied in many fields. In particular, a hand gesture recognition (HGR) system, which can be implemented as a wearable system, has the advantage that users can easily and in...
