Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are increasingly being used to model complex cognitive and motor tasks performed by behaving animals. RNNs are trained to reproduce animal behavior while also capturing key statistics of empirically recorded neural ac...
This paper describes a prototype guidance system, "FingerSight," to help people without vision locate and reach to objects in peripersonal space. It consists of four evenly spaced tactors embedded into a ring worn on the index finger, with a small ca...
Kinesthesis pertains to the perception of moving body parts, while the sense of agency refers to the experience of controlling one's action-effects. Based on previous work, we hypothesized that the sense of agency would decrease in joint action with ...
The present study investigated the sense of agency (SoA) when actions were determined by another human vs. a humanoid robot as compared to when freely selected. Additionally, perceived robot-autonomy was manipulated via autonomous vs. non-autonomous ...

EEG signal can be a good alternative for disabled persons who cannot perform actions or perform them improperly. Brain computer interface (BCI) is an attractive technology which permits control and interaction with a computer or a machine using EEG s...
Human-administered clinical scales are commonly used for quantifying motor performance and determining the course of therapy in post-stroke individuals. Computerized methods aim to improve consistency, resolution and duration of patients' evaluation....
The adaptive changes elicited in visuomotor adaptation experiments are usually well explained at group level by two-rate models (Smith et al., 2006), but parameters fitted to individuals show considerable variance. Data cleaning can mitigate this pro...
Examination of rodent vocalizations in experimental conditions can yield valuable insights into how disease manifests and progresses over time. It can also be used as an index of social interest, motivation, emotional development or motor function de...
BACKGROUND: Motor imagery classification, an important branch of brain-computer interface (BCI), recognizes the intention of subjects to control external auxiliary equipment. Therefore, EEG-based motor imagery classification has received increasing a...
