Discrimination of the Lame Limb in Horses Using a Machine Learning Method (Support Vector Machine) Based on Asymmetry Indices Measured by the EQUISYM System.
Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Feb 12, 2025
Lameness detection in horses is a critical challenge in equine veterinary practice, particularly when symptoms are mild. This study aimed to develop a predictive system using a support vector machine (SVM) to identify the affected limb in horses trot...
Comparison of leg dynamic models for quadrupedal robots with compliant backbone.
Scientific reports
Aug 26, 2022
Many quadrupeds are capable of power efficient gaits, especially trot and gallop, thanks to their flexible trunk. The oscillations of the system that includes the backbone, the tendons and musculature, store and release elastic energy, helping a smoo...
Modeling of the neural mechanism underlying the terrestrial turning of the salamander.
Biological cybernetics
Feb 27, 2020
In order to explore the neural mechanism underlying salamander terrestrial turning, an improved biomechanical model is proposed by modifying the forelimb structure of the existing biomechanical model. Based on the proposed improved biomechanical mode...
Skilled reaching tasks for head-fixed mice using a robotic manipulandum.
Nature protocols
Feb 7, 2020
Skilled forelimb behaviors are among the most important for studying motor learning in multiple species including humans. This protocol describes learned forelimb tasks for mice using a two-axis robotic manipulandum. Our device provides a highly comp...
Data-driven analyses of motor impairments in animal models of neurological disorders.
PLoS biology
Nov 21, 2019
Behavior provides important insights into neuronal processes. For example, analysis of reaching movements can give a reliable indication of the degree of impairment in neurological disorders such as stroke, Parkinson disease, or Huntington disease. T...
A force-measuring and behaviour-recording system consisting of 24 individual 3D force plates for the study of single limb forces in climbing animals on a quasi-cylindrical tower.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
May 24, 2019
This study describes the design of a new force measuring array with a quasi-cylindrical surface for measuring the 3D ground reaction forces of animals climbing on a surface with high curvature. This force-measuring array was assembled from 24 individ...
A Robotic System for Adaptive Training and Function Assessment of Forelimb Retraction in Mice.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Aug 8, 2018
Rodent models are decisive for translational research in healthy and pathological conditions of motor function thanks to specific similarities with humans. Here, we present an upgraded version of the M-Platform, a robotic device previously designed t...
Combining robotic training and inactivation of the healthy hemisphere restores pre-stroke motor patterns in mice.
eLife
Dec 27, 2017
Focal cortical stroke often leads to persistent motor deficits, prompting the need for more effective interventions. The efficacy of rehabilitation can be increased by 'plasticity-stimulating' treatments that enhance experience-dependent modification...
Turtle mimetic soft robot with two swimming gaits.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
May 4, 2016
This paper presents a biomimetic turtle flipper actuator consisting of a shape memory alloy composite structure for implementation in a turtle-inspired autonomous underwater vehicle. Based on the analysis of the Chelonia mydas, the flipper actuator w...
Robotic Rehabilitator of the Rodent Upper Extremity: A System and Method for Assessing and Training Forelimb Force Production after Neurological Injury.
Journal of neurotrauma
Jan 18, 2016
Rodent models of spinal cord injury are critical for the development of treatments for upper limb motor impairment in humans, but there are few methods for measuring forelimb strength of rodents, an important outcome measure. We developed a novel rob...
