Cerebral palsy is a neurological condition that is known to affect muscle growth. Detailed investigations of muscle growth require segmentation of muscles from MRI scans, which is typically done manually. In this study, we evaluated the performance o...

The purpose of this narrative review is to provide a critical reflection of how analytical machine learning approaches could provide the platform to harness variability of patient presentation to enhance clinical prediction. The review includes a sum...
BACKGROUND: Previous studies evaluating the prognostic value of computed tomography (CT)-derived body composition data have included few patients. Thus, we assessed the prevalence and prognostic value of sarcopenic obesity in a large population of ga...
OBJECTIVE: Hill-type muscle models are widely employed in simulations of human movement. Yet, the parameters underlying these models are difficult or impossible to measure in vivo. Prior studies demonstrate that Hill-type muscle parameters are encode...
This paper proposes machine learning models for mapping surface electromyography (sEMG) signals to regression of joint angle, joint velocity, joint acceleration, joint torque, and activation torque.The regression models, collectively known as MuscleN...

Sarcopenia is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. CT-based skeletal muscle measurements for sarcopenia assessment are most commonly performed at the L3 vertebral level. The purpose of this article is to compare the utility of fully automated...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Body composition analysis on CT images is a valuable tool for sarcopenia assessment. We aimed to develop and validate a deep neural network applicable to whole-body CT images of PET-CT scan for the automatic volumetric segmentation...
The objective of this work is to relate muscle effort distributions to the trajectory and resistance settings of a robotic exercise and rehabilitation machine. Muscular effort distribution, representing the participation of each muscle in the trainin...
Ultrasound imaging is a patient-friendly and robust technique for studying physiological and pathological muscles. An automatic deep learning (DL) system for the analysis of ultrasound images could be useful to support an expert operator, allowing th...
Classification of terrain is a vital component in giving suitable control to a walking assistive device for the various walking conditions. Although surface electromyography (sEMG) signals have been combined with inputs from other sensors to detect w...
