BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Automated surgical skill assessment using kinematic and video data (hard data) sources has been widely adopted in the literature. However, experts' opinions (soft data) in the form of free-text could be an invaluable source ...
For trained individuals such as athletes and musicians, learning often plateaus after extensive training, known as the "ceiling effect." One bottleneck to overcome it is having no prior physical experience with the skill to be learned. Here, we chall...
This study aimed to investigate the relative importance of parameters from several domains associated to both selecting or de-selecting players with regards to the next age group within a professional German youth soccer academy across a 7-year perio...
Twenty-first-century roboticists envision robots capable of sorting objects and packaging them, of chopping vegetables and folding clothes. But although many today believe that the only factors necessary for robots to achieve dexterous manipulation a...
Growing evidence supports that early sport specialization in children and adolescents may compromise long-term athlete development and high-performance acquisition. This study aimed to determine the presence of specialised shooting roles in formative...
Finger dexterity, and finger individuation in particular, is crucial for human movement, and disruptions due to brain injury can significantly impact quality of life. Understanding the neurological mechanisms responsible for recovery is vital for eff...
Semi-passive rehabilitation robots resist and steer a patient's motion using only controllable passive force elements (e.g., controllable brakes). Contrarily, passive robots use uncontrollable passive force elements (e.g., springs), while active robo...
