The present clinical investigation was to ascertain whether the effects of WALKBOT-assisted locomotor training (WLT) on balance, gait, and motor recovery were superior or similar to the conventional locomotor training (CLT) in patients with hemiparet...
Preterm birth has been shown to induce an altered developmental trajectory of brain structure and function. With the aid support vector machine (SVM) classification methods we aimed to investigate whether MRI data, collected in adolescence, could be ...

Myoelectric control offers a direct interface between human intent and various robotic applications through recorded muscle activity. Traditional control schemes realize this interface through direct mapping or pattern recognition techniques. The for...
BACKGROUND: Recently, artificial neural networks (ANN) have been proposed as promising machines for marker-based genomic predictions of complex traits in animal and plant breeding. ANN are universal approximators of complex functions, that can captur...
OBJECTIVE: To critically review the currently available evidence of studies comparing robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with open radical cystectomy (ORC).

It is a fundamental question how our brain performs a given motor task in a real-time fashion with the slow sensorimotor system. Computational theory proposed an influential idea of feed-forward control, but it has mainly treated the case that the mo...
To diagnose the malignancy in thyroid tumor, neural network approach is applied and the performances of thirteen batch learning algorithms are investigated on accuracy of the prediction. Therefore, a back propagation feed forward neural networks (BP ...
