Current applications and future directions of deep learning in musculoskeletal radiology.

Skeletal radiology
Deep learning with convolutional neural networks (CNN) is a rapidly advancing subset of artificial intelligence that is ideally suited to solving image-based problems. There are an increasing number of musculoskeletal applications of deep learning, w...

Artificial Intelligence in Musculoskeletal Imaging: Review of Current Literature, Challenges, and Trends.

Seminars in musculoskeletal radiology
Artificial intelligence (AI) has gained major attention with a rapid increase in the number of published articles, mostly recently. This review provides a general understanding of how AI can or will be useful to the musculoskeletal radiologist. After...

Musculoskeletal design, control, and application of human mimetic humanoid Kenshiro.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
We have been developing a human mimetic musculoskeletal humanoid called Kenshiro, whose design concept is to thoroughly pursue an unprecedented anatomical fidelity to the human musculoskeletal structure. We believe that research on human mimetic musc...

Hand Exo-Muscular System for Assisting Astronauts During Extravehicular Activities.

Soft robotics
Human exploration of the Solar System is one of the most challenging objectives included in the space programs of the most important space agencies in the world. Since the Apollo program, and especially with the construction and operation of the Inte...

Force feasible set prediction with artificial neural network and musculoskeletal model.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Developing tools to predict the force capabilities of the human limbs through the Force Feasible Set (FFS) may be of great interest for robotic assisted rehabilitation and digital human modelling for ergonomics. Indeed, it could help to refine rehabi...

Control of a muscle-like soft actuator via a bioinspired approach.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Soft actuators have played an indispensable role in generating compliant motions of soft robots. Among the various soft actuators explored for soft robotic applications, dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have caught the eye with their intriguing ...

Communication with Orthopedic Trauma Patients via an Automated Mobile Phone Messaging Robot.

Telemedicine journal and e-health : the official journal of the American Telemedicine Association
BACKGROUND: Communication with orthopedic trauma patients is traditionally problematic with low response rates (RRs). The purpose of this investigation was to (1) evaluate the feasibility of communicating with orthopedic trauma patients postoperative...

Proprioceptive assessment in clinical settings: Evaluation of joint position sense in upper limb post-stroke using a robotic manipulator.

PloS one
Proprioception is a critical component for motor functions and directly affects motor learning after neurological injuries. Conventional methods for its assessment are generally ordinal in nature and hence lack sensitivity. Robotic devices designed t...

Tegotae-based decentralised control scheme for autonomous gait transition of snake-like robots.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Snakes change their locomotion patterns in response to the environment. This ability is a motivation for developing snake-like robots with highly adaptive functionality. In this study, a decentralised control scheme of snake-like robots that exhibite...
