Electromyographic (EMG) signals have gained popularity for controlling prostheses and exoskeletons, particularly in the field of upper limbs for stroke patients. However, there is a lack of research in the lower limb area, and standardized open-sourc...
Bradykinesia, a core symptom of motor disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD), is a major criterion for screening early PD patients in clinical practice. Currently, many studies have proposed automatic assessment schemes for bradykinesia in PD. However...
During robot-assisted rehabilitation, failure to recognize lower limb movement may efficiently limit the development of exoskeleton robots, especially for individuals with knee pathology. A major challenge encountered with surface electromyography (s...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Lower-limb wearable devices can significantly improve the quality of life of subjects suffering from debilitating conditions, such as amputations, neurodegenerative disorders, and stroke-related impairments. Current control...
Stroke affects approximately 17 million individuals worldwide each year and is a leading cause of long-term disability. Robotic therapy has shown promise in helping stroke patients regain lost motor functions. One potential avenue for increasing the ...
This article studies the passive tracking problem of a wearable exoskeleton for lower limb rehabilitation therapy in the face of unmodeled dynamics, interactive friction, disturbance, prescribed performance constraints, and actuator faults. Adaptive ...

Lower limb impairments are common consequences of stroke. Robotics and virtual reality (VR) play crucial roles in improving lower limb function post-stroke. This review aims to assess the effects of combined robot and VR interventions on lower limb f...
PURPOSE: To examine whether there is a significant difference in image quality between the deep learning reconstruction (DLR [AiCE, Advanced Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine]) and hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR [AIDR 3D, adaptive iterative dose redu...
With an aging population, the prevalence of neurological disorders is increasing, leading to a rise in lower limb movement disorders and, in turn, a growing need for rehabilitation training. Previous neuroimaging studies have shown a growing scienti...
