Visualizing Worklog Based on Human Working Activity Recognition Using Unsupervised Activity Pattern Encoding.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Wearable motion sensor-based complex activity recognition during working hours has recently been studied to evaluate and thereby improve worker productivity. In the application of this technique to practical fields, one of the biggest challenges is p...

Regression of Hand Movements from sEMG Data with Recurrent Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Most wearable human-machine interfaces concerning hand movements only focus on classifying a limited number of hand gestures. With the introduction of deep learning, surface electromyography based hand gesture classification systems improved drastica...

Investigating muscle synergies changes after rehabilitation robotics training on stroke survivors: a pilot study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The current knowledge about muscle synergies does not clearly explain how both rehabilitation and brain plasticity act on the way they evolve after a cortical stroke. In this preliminary study, the authors analyzed the correlation between healthy and...
