In myoelectric machine learning (ML) based control, it has been demonstrated that control performance usually increases with training, but it remains largely unknown which underlying factors govern these improvements. It has been suggested that the i...
ForceMyography (FMG) is an emerging competitor to surface ElectroMyography (sEMG) for hand gesture recognition. Most of the state-of-the-art research in this area explores different machine learning algorithms or feature engineering to improve hand g...

BACKGROUND: Recovery of hand function after stroke represents the hardest target for clinicians. Robot-assisted therapy has been proved to be effective for hand recovery. Nevertheless, studies aimed to refer patients to the best therapy are missing.
(1) Background: Three-dimensional (3-D) hand position is one of the kinematic parameters that can be inferred from Electromyography (EMG) signals. The inferred parameter is used as a communication channel in human-robot collaboration applications. Al...
