A biorobotic model of the human larynx.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This work focuses on a physical model of the human larynx that replicates its main components and functions. The prototype reproduces the multilayer vocal folds and the ab/adduction movements. In particular, the vocal folds prototype is made with sof...

Design and development of a bio-inspired, under-actuated soft gripper.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The development of robotic devices able to perform manipulation tasks mimicking the human hand has been assessed on large scale. This work stands in the challenging scenario where soft materials are combined with bio-inspired design in order to devel...

A method for volumetric imaging in radiotherapy using single x-ray projection.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: It is an intriguing problem to generate an instantaneous volumetric image based on the corresponding x-ray projection. The purpose of this study is to develop a new method to achieve this goal via a sparse learning approach.

A scalable projective scaling algorithm for l(p) loss with convex penalizations.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
This paper presents an accurate, efficient, and scalable algorithm for minimizing a special family of convex functions, which have a lp loss function as an additive component. For this problem, well-known learning algorithms often have well-establish...

Advancing surgical simulation in gynecologic oncology: robotic dissection of a novel pelvic lymphadenectomy model.

Simulation in healthcare : journal of the Society for Simulation in Healthcare
INTRODUCTION: Pelvic lymphadenectomy is a key component of the surgical treatment of several gynecologic cancers and involves mastery of complex anatomic relationships. Our aim was to demonstrate that the anatomy relevant to robotic pelvic lymphadene...

Biological Soft Robotics.

Annual review of biomedical engineering
In nature, nanometer-scale molecular motors are used to generate force within cells for diverse processes from transcription and transport to muscle contraction. This adaptability and scalability across wide temporal, spatial, and force regimes have ...

Fuzzy Logic as a Computational Tool for Quantitative Modelling of Biological Systems with Uncertain Kinetic Data.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Quantitative modelling of biological systems has become an indispensable computational approach in the design of novel and analysis of existing biological systems. However, kinetic data that describe the system's dynamics need to be known in order to...
