Facilitatory effects of anti-spastic medication on robotic locomotor training in people with chronic incomplete spinal cord injury.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Mar 20, 2015
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to investigate whether an anti-spasticity medication can facilitate the effects of robotic locomotor treadmill training (LTT) to improve gait function in people with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI).
A novel device for studying weight supported, quadrupedal overground locomotion in spinal cord injured rats.
Journal of neuroscience methods
Mar 18, 2015
BACKGROUND: Providing weight support facilitates locomotion in spinal cord injured animals. To control weight support, robotic systems have been developed for treadmill stepping and more recently for overground walking.
A Novel Interactive Exoskeletal Robot for Overground Locomotion Studies in Rats.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Feb 5, 2015
This paper introduces a newly developed apparatus, Iron Rat, for locomotion research in rodents. Its main purpose is to allow maximal freedom of voluntary overground movement of the animal while providing forceful interaction to the hindlimbs. Advant...
A low cost real-time motion tracking approach using webcam technology.
Journal of biomechanics
Dec 10, 2014
Physical therapy is an important component of gait recovery for individuals with locomotor dysfunction. There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that incorporating a motor learning task through visual feedback of movement trajectory is a use...
Self-Organizing Map With Time-Varying Structure to Plan and Control Artificial Locomotion.
IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
Sep 4, 2014
This paper presents an algorithm, self-organizing map-state trajectory generator (SOM-STG), to plan and control legged robot locomotion. The SOM-STG is based on an SOM with a time-varying structure characterized by constructing autonomously close-sta...
Time-Varying Ankle Mechanical Impedance During Human Locomotion.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Aug 15, 2014
In human locomotion, we continuously modulate joint mechanical impedance of the lower limb (hip, knee, and ankle) either voluntarily or reflexively to accommodate environmental changes and maintain stable interaction. Ankle mechanical impedance plays...
Enhanced Human Crawling Phase Recognition Based on Kinematic Synergies and Machine Learning.
Journal of biomechanical engineering
Aug 1, 2025
Hands-and-knees crawling, an effective rehabilitation method for children with motor impairments, requires precise phase detection for optimizing assistive devices. However, research on phase detection in human crawling remains limited. The research ...
Representation of locomotive action affordances in human behavior, brains, and deep neural networks.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Jun 17, 2025
To decide how to move around the world, we must determine which locomotive actions (e.g., walking, swimming, or climbing) are afforded by the immediate visual environment. The neural basis of our ability to recognize locomotive affordances is unknown...
Technical Note: Using Machine Learning to Predict Locomotor Behavior in Great Apes and Humans From Femur Metaphyseal Shape.
American journal of biological anthropology
Jun 1, 2025
OBJECTIVES: The morphology of the hominoid distal femoral metaphyseal surface has been demonstrated to reflect locomotor behavior throughout ontogeny. Here, we quantify metaphyseal surface morphology to evaluate its predictive relationship to locomot...
Dynamic Locomotion Synchronization and Fuzzy Control of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton With Body Weight Support for Active Following Human Operator.
IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Jun 1, 2025
Despite remarkable progress in robotic exoskeletons, exoskeletons are still far from matching human-level guidance and locomotion performance in gait training or movement enhancement. A desirable exoskeleton would first provide a standard gait profil...
