Physiological and kinematic effects of a soft exosuit on arm movements.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Feb 22, 2019
BACKGROUND: Soft wearable robots (exosuits), being lightweight, ergonomic and low power-demanding, are attractive for a variety of applications, ranging from strength augmentation in industrial scenarios, to medical assistance for people with motor i...
Classification and regression of spatio-temporal signals using NeuCube and its realization on SpiNNaker neuromorphic hardware.
Journal of neural engineering
Dec 21, 2018
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work is to use the capability of spiking neural networks to capture the spatio-temporal information encoded in time-series signals and decode them without the use of hand-crafted features and vector-based learning and...
Applied Force during Piston Prosthesis Placement in a 3D-Printed Model: Freehand vs Robot-Assisted Techniques.
Otolaryngology--head and neck surgery : official journal of American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery
Dec 4, 2018
OBJECTIVES: To describe a 3D-printed middle ear model that quantifies the force applied to the modeled incus. To compare the forces applied during placement and crimping of a stapes prosthesis between the Robotic ENT Microsurgery System ( REMS) and t...
Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm Assisted by an Artificial Neural Network Metamodel for Shape Optimization of a Centrifugal Blood Pump.
Artificial organs
Nov 18, 2018
A centrifugal blood pump is a common type of the pump used as a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in the medical industries. The reduction of the LVADs hemolysis level to reduce the blood damage is one of the major concerns in designing of such d...
Unsupervised and real-time spike sorting chip for neural signal processing in hippocampal prosthesis.
Journal of neuroscience methods
Oct 16, 2018
BACKGROUND: Damage to the hippocampus will result in the loss of ability to form new long-term memories and cognitive disorders. At present, there is no effective medical treatment for this issue. Hippocampal cognitive prosthesis is proposed to repla...
CT image segmentation of bone for medical additive manufacturing using a convolutional neural network.
Computers in biology and medicine
Oct 16, 2018
BACKGROUND: The most tedious and time-consuming task in medical additive manufacturing (AM) is image segmentation. The aim of the present study was to develop and train a convolutional neural network (CNN) for bone segmentation in computed tomography...
Economic benefits of microprocessor controlled prosthetic knees: a modeling study.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Sep 5, 2018
BACKGROUND: Advanced prosthetic knees allow for more dynamic movements and improved quality of life, but payers have recently started questioning their value. To answer this question, the differential clinical outcomes and cost of microprocessor-cont...
Control within a virtual environment is correlated to functional outcomes when using a physical prosthesis.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Sep 5, 2018
BACKGROUND: Advances such as targeted muscle reinnervation and pattern recognition control may provide improved control of upper limb myoelectric prostheses, but evaluating user function remains challenging. Virtual environments are cost-effective an...
Energy-Optimal Human Walking With Feedback-Controlled Robotic Prostheses: A Computational Study.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Jul 20, 2018
Lower-limb amputees typically experience reduced mobility and higher metabolic rates than non-amputees. It may be possible to improve their mobility and metabolic rate with an optimized robotic prosthesis. Here, we use large-scale trajectory optimiza...
Assessing Wrist Movement With Robotic Devices.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Jul 5, 2018
Robotic devices have been proposed to meet the rising need for high intensity, long duration, and goal-oriented therapy required to regain motor function after neurological injury. Complementing this application, exoskeletons can augment traditional ...
