Differences in muscle activity and fatigue of the upper limb between Task-Specific training and robot assisted training among individuals post stroke.

Journal of biomechanics
OBJECTIVE: To compare the activity and fatigue of upper extremity muscles, pain levels, subject satisfaction levels, perceived exertion, and number of repetitions in Task-Specific Training (TST) compared with Robot-Assisted Training (RAT) in individu...

A CNN-Based Method for Intent Recognition Using Inertial Measurement Units and Intelligent Lower Limb Prosthesis.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Powered intelligent lower limb prosthesis can actuate the knee and ankle joints, allowing transfemoral amputees to perform seamless transitions between locomotion states with the help of an intent recognition system. However, prior intent recognition...

Detection of movement onset using EMG signals for upper-limb exoskeletons in reaching tasks.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: To assist people with disabilities, exoskeletons must be provided with human-robot interfaces and smart algorithms capable to identify the user's movement intentions. Surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals could be suitable for this pur...

A deep learning-based decision support system for diagnosis of OSAS using PTT signals.

Medical hypotheses
Sleep disorders, which negatively affect an individual's daily quality of life, are a common problem for most of society. The most dangerous sleep disorder is obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), which manifests itself during sleep and can cause ...

Counteracting Electrode Shifts in Upper-Limb Prosthesis Control via Transfer Learning.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Research on machine learning approaches for upper-limb prosthesis control has shown impressive progress. However, translating these results from the lab to patient's everyday lives remains a challenge because advanced control schemes tend to break do...

EMG Muscle Activation Pattern of Four Lower Extremity Muscles during Stair Climbing, Motor Imagery, and Robot-Assisted Stepping: A Cross-Sectional Study in Healthy Individuals.

BioMed research international
BACKGROUND: Stair climbing can be a challenging part of daily life and a limiting factor for social participation, in particular for patients after stroke. In order to promote motor relearning of stair climbing, different therapeutical measures can b...

Regression convolutional neural network for improved simultaneous EMG control.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: Deep learning models can learn representations of data that extract useful information in order to perform prediction without feature engineering. In this paper, an electromyography (EMG) control scheme with a regression convolutional neur...

Offline and online myoelectric pattern recognition analysis and real-time control of a robotic hand after spinal cord injury.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of applying myoelectric pattern recognition for controlling a robotic hand in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Improving Reliability of Myocontrol Using Formal Verification.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In the context of assistive robotics, myocontrol is one of the so-far unsolved problems of upper-limb prosthetics. It consists of swiftly, naturally, and reliably converting biosignals, non-invasively gathered from an upper-limb disabled subject, int...

Development of a deep neural network for automated electromyographic pattern classification.

The Journal of experimental biology
Determining the signal quality of surface electromyography (sEMG) recordings is time consuming and requires the judgement of trained observers. An automated procedure to evaluate sEMG quality would streamline data processing and reduce time demands. ...
