One of the challenges in brain-computer interface systems is obtaining motor imagery recognition from brain activities. Brain-signal decoding robustness and system performance improvement during the motor imagery process are two of the essential issu...
BACKGROUND: Brain activation in response to spoken motor commands can be detected by electroencephalography (EEG) in clinically unresponsive patients. The prevalence and prognostic importance of a dissociation between commanded motor behavior and bra...

Robot-based neurorehabilitation strategies often ignore cognitive performance during treatment, but this is a need in populations dealing with a wide variety of cognitive and motor impairments, such as the stroke and HIV populations, for which an ass...
RATIONALE: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of central nervous system and it is associated with an impaired motor function status. The efficacy of rehabilitation in promoting functional recovery and increasing quality ...
A hallmark of higher brain function is the ability to rapidly and flexibly adjust behavioral responses based on internal and external cues. Here, we examine the computational principles that allow decisions and actions to unfold flexibly in time. We ...
Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems establish a direct communication channel from the brain to an output device. As the basis of BCIs, recognizing motor imagery activities poses a considerable challenge to signal processing due to the complex and ...
