Spatio-temporal transformers for decoding neural movement control.

Journal of neural engineering
. Deep learning tools applied to high-resolution neurophysiological data have significantly progressed, offering enhanced decoding, real-time processing, and readability for practical applications. However, the design of artificial neural networks to...

Accuracy deficits during robotic time-constrained reaching are related to altered prefrontal cortex activity in children with cerebral palsy.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is an important node for action planning in the frontoparietal reaching network but its role in reaching in children with cerebral palsy (CP) is unexplored. This case-control study combines a robotic task with ...

Simplified internal models in human control of complex objects.

PLoS computational biology
Humans are skillful at manipulating objects that possess nonlinear underactuated dynamics, such as clothes or containers filled with liquids. Several studies suggested that humans implement a predictive model-based strategy to control such objects. H...

NeuralFeels with neural fields: Visuotactile perception for in-hand manipulation.

Science robotics
To achieve human-level dexterity, robots must infer spatial awareness from multimodal sensing to reason over contact interactions. During in-hand manipulation of novel objects, such spatial awareness involves estimating the object's pose and shape. T...

Predicting Basketball Shot Outcome From Visuomotor Control Data Using Explainable Machine Learning.

Journal of sport & exercise psychology
Quiet eye (QE), the visual fixation on a target before initiation of a critical action, is associated with improved performance. While QE is trainable, it is unclear whether QE can directly predict performance, which has implications for training int...

Grasp and remember: the impact of human and robotic actions on object preference and memory.

Scientific reports
Goal contagion, the tendency to adopt others' goals, significantly impacts cognitive processes, which gains particular importance in the emerging field of human-robot interactions. The present study explored how observing human versus robotic actions...

Robotic assessment of bilateral and unilateral upper limb functions in adults with cerebral palsy.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) exhibit motor impairments predominantly on one side of the body, while also having ipsilesional and bilateral impairments. These impairments are known to persist through adulthood, but their ex...

Pupillometry as a biomarker of postural control: Deep-learning models reveal side-specific pupillary responses to increased intensity of balance tasks.

Psychophysiology
Pupillometry has been used in the studies of postural control to assess cognitive load during dual tasks, but its response to increased balance task intensity has not been investigated. Furthermore, it is unknown whether side-specific changes in pupi...

Direct Comparisons of Upper-Limb Motor Learning Performance Among Three Types of Haptic Guidance With Non-Assisted Condition in Spiral Drawing Task.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In robot-assisted rehabilitation, it is unclear which type of haptic guidance is effective for regaining motor function because of the lack of direct comparisons among multiple types of haptic guidance. The objective of this study was to investigate ...

Human manipulation strategy when changing object deformability and task properties.

Scientific reports
Robotic literature widely addresses deformable object manipulation, but few studies analyzed human manipulation accounting for different levels of deformability and task properties. We asked participants to grasp and insert rigid and deformable objec...
