Lower extremity paralysis has become common in recent years, and robots have been developed to help patients recover from it. This paper presents such a robotic system that allows for two working modes, the robot-active mode and human-active mode. Th...
The timing of muscles activation which is a key parameter in determining plenty of medical conditions can be greatly assessed by the surface EMG signal which inherently carries an immense amount of information. Many techniques for measuring muscle ac...
We utilized a data-driven, unsupervised machine learning approach to examine patterns of peripheral physiological responses during a motivated performance context across two large, independent data sets, each with multiple peripheral physiological me...
