Neuronal and therapeutic perspectives on empathic pain: A rational insight.

Neuropharmacology
Empathy is the capacity to experience and understand the feelings of others, thereby playing a key role in a person's mental well-being essentially by promoting kindness and a sense of belongingness to the group. However, too much empathy may result ...

Machine learning classification of active viewing of pain and non-pain images using EEG does not exceed chance in external validation samples.

Cognitive, affective & behavioral neuroscience
Previous research has demonstrated that machine learning (ML) could not effectively decode passive observation of neutral versus pain photographs by using electroencephalogram (EEG) data. Consequently, the present study explored whether active viewin...

A Suspended, 3D Morphing Sensory System for Robots to Feel and Protect.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Artificial sensory systems with synergistic touch and pain perception hold substantial promise for environment interaction and human-robot communication. However, the realization of biological skin-like functional integration of sensors with sensitiv...

Stretchable and neuromorphic transistors for pain perception and sensitization emulation.

Materials horizons
Pain perception nociceptors (PPN), an important type of sensory neuron, are capable of sending out alarm signals when the human body is exposed to destructive stimuli. Simulating the human ability to perceive the external environment and spontaneousl...

Identifying resting state differences salient for resilience to chronic pain based on machine learning multivariate pattern analysis.

Psychophysiology
Studies have documented behavior differences between more versus less resilient adults with chronic pain (CP), but the presence and nature of underlying neurophysiological differences have received scant attention. In this study, we attempted to iden...

Objective pain stimulation intensity and pain sensation assessment using machine learning classification and regression based on electrodermal activity.

American journal of physiology. Regulatory, integrative and comparative physiology
An objective measure of pain remains an unmet need of people with chronic pain, estimated to be 1/3 of the adult population in the United States. The current gold standard to quantify pain is highly subjective, based upon self-reporting with numerica...

Pain intensity estimation based on a spatial transformation and attention CNN.

PloS one
Models designed to detect abnormalities that reflect disease from facial structures are an emerging area of research for automated facial analysis, which has important potential value in smart healthcare applications. However, most of the proposed mo...

Touching the social robot PARO reduces pain perception and salivary oxytocin levels.

Scientific reports
Human-human social touch improves mood and alleviates pain. No studies have so far tested the effect of human-robot emotional touch on experimentally induced pain ratings, on mood and on oxytocin levels in healthy young adults. Here, we assessed the ...
