Personalized ML-based wearable robot control improves impaired arm function.

Nature communications
Portable wearable robots offer promise for assisting people with upper limb disabilities. However, movement variability between individuals and trade-offs between supportiveness and transparency complicate robot control during real-world tasks. We ad...

Exploratory development of human-machine interaction strategies for post-stroke upper-limb rehabilitation.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Stroke and its related complications, place significant burdens on human society in the twenty-first century, and lead to substantial demands for upper limb rehabilitation. To fulfill the rehabilitation needs, human-machine interaction (H...

Knee injury prevention via personalized exercise using EDAS method and Sugeno Weber operator under complex q rung orthopair fuzzy data.

Scientific reports
Knee injuries are common in several people, frequently controlling for significant injuries and health care costs. This article explains the role of personalized exercise prescriptions in preventing knee injuries. For this purpose, we used the multic...

Machine learning analysis of kinematic movement features during functional tasks to discriminate chronic neck pain patients from asymptomatic controls.

Scientific reports
This study evaluated the discriminative potential of a machine learning model using movement features during functional tasks to distinguish between patients with non-traumatic chronic neck pain and asymptomatic controls. The study included patients ...

Development and Validation of the Novel Exergame-Integrated Robotic Stepper Device for Seated Lower Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Seated rehabilitation is essential in early-stage recovery for patients who can sit but cannot stand or walk. Robotic-based lower limb rehabilitation provides precise, task-specific training for recovery, but its application in seated exercises remai...

Flexor Synergy Assessment and Therapy for Persons With Stroke Using the ULIX Low Impedance Robot.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The flexor synergy after stroke results in involuntary activation of distal muscles when lifting the shoulder against gravity. This contributes to impaired ability to perform activities of daily living. Robotic exoskeletons can be useful in assessing...

Marker based and markerless motion capture for equestrian rider kinematic analysis: A comparative study.

Journal of biomechanics
The study hypothesised that a markerless motion capture system can provide kinematic data comparable to a traditional marker-based system for riders mounted on a horse. The objective was to assess the markerless system's accuracy by directly comparin...

Single Joint Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL-SJ) robotic exoskeleton therapy in improving functional outcomes among workers with wrist fractures: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

PloS one
INTRODUCTION: Robotic technologies have been developed for motor rehabilitation and such robots have shown favourable results when compared with equivalent doses of usual clinical therapy. Recently, robotic interventions have been suggested to be app...

Comparison of Ground Reaction Forces and Net Joint Moment Predictions: Skeletal Model Versus Artificial Neural Network-Based Approach.

Journal of applied biomechanics
Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are becoming a regular tool to support biomechanical methods, while physics-based models are widespread to understand the mechanics of body in motion. Thus, this study aimed to demonstrate the accuracy of recurrent A...

An innovative model based on machine learning and fuzzy logic for tracking lower limb exercises in stroke patients.

Scientific reports
Rehabilitation after a stroke is vital for regaining functional abilities. However, a shortage of rehabilitation professionals leads to many patients with severe disabilities. Traditional rehabilitation methods can be time-consuming and hard to measu...
