Wrist accelerometer shape feature derivation methods for assessing activities of daily living.
BMC medical informatics and decision making
Dec 12, 2018
BACKGROUND: There has been an increasing interest in understanding the usefulness of wrist-based accelerometer data for physical activity (PA) assessment due to the ease of use and higher user compliance than other body placements. PA assessment stud...
EuMoBot: replicating euglenoid movement in a soft robot.
Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Nov 21, 2018
Swimming is employed as a form of locomotion by many organisms in nature across a wide range of scales. Varied strategies of shape change are employed to achieve fluidic propulsion at different scales due to changes in hydrodynamics. In the case of m...
Human-like hopping in machines : Feedback- versus feed-forward-controlled motions.
Biological cybernetics
Oct 28, 2018
Template models of legged locomotion are powerful tools for gait analysis, but can also inspire robot design and control. In this paper, a spring-loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model is employed to control vertical hopping of a 2-segmented legged ro...
Afferent Input Induced by Rhythmic Limb Movement Modulates Spinal Neuronal Circuits in an Innovative Robotic In Vitro Preparation.
Neuroscience
Oct 18, 2018
Locomotor patterns are mainly modulated by afferent feedback, but its actual contribution to spinal network activity during continuous passive limb training is still unexplored. To unveil this issue, we devised a robotic in vitro setup (Bipedal Induc...
Inferring locomotor behaviours in Miocene New World monkeys using finite element analysis, geometric morphometrics and machine-learning classification techniques applied to talar morphology.
Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Sep 26, 2018
The talus is one of the most commonly preserved post-cranial elements in the platyrrhine fossil record. Talar morphology can provide information about postural adaptations because it is the anatomical structure responsible for transmitting body mass ...
Locomotion of arthropods in aquatic environment and their applications in robotics.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
May 8, 2018
Many bio-inspired robots have been developed so far after careful investigation of animals' locomotion. To successfully apply the locomotion of natural counterparts to robots for efficient and improved mobility, it is essential to understand their pr...
How Much Does Movement and Location Encoding Impact Prefrontal Cortex Activity? An Algorithmic Decoding Approach in Freely Moving Rats.
eNeuro
Apr 27, 2018
Specialized brain structures encode spatial locations and movements, yet there is growing evidence that this information is also represented in the rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Disambiguating such information from the encoding of other typ...
A unified hierarchical oscillatory network model of head direction cells, spatially periodic cells, and place cells.
The European journal of neuroscience
Apr 16, 2018
Spatial cells in the hippocampal complex play a pivotal role in the navigation of an animal. Exact neural principles behind these spatial cell responses have not been completely unraveled yet. Here we present two models for spatial cells, namely the ...
Robotics-inspired biology.
The Journal of experimental biology
Mar 29, 2018
For centuries, designers and engineers have looked to biology for inspiration. Biologically inspired robots are just one example of the application of knowledge of the natural world to engineering problems. However, recent work by biologists and inte...
The role of phase shifts of sensory inputs in walking revealed by means of phase reduction.
Journal of computational neuroscience
Mar 27, 2018
Detailed neural network models of animal locomotion are important means to understand the underlying mechanisms that control the coordinated movement of individual limbs. Daun-Gruhn and Tóth, Journal of Computational Neuroscience 31(2), 43-60 (2011) ...
