OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using an inductive tongue control system (ITCS) for controlling robotic/prosthetic hands and arms.
BACKGROUND: An automatic tongue diagnosis framework is proposed to analyze tongue images taken by smartphones. Different from conventional tongue diagnosis systems, our input tongue images are usually in low resolution and taken under unknown lightin...

The tongue is a critical organ for a variety of functions, including swallowing, respiration, and speech. It contains intrinsic and extrinsic muscles that play an important role in changing its shape and position. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has b...
We describe a novel device and method for real-time measurement of lingual-palatal pressure and automatic identification of the oral transfer phase of deglutition. Clinical measurement of the oral transport phase of swallowing is a complicated proces...

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global public health threat. Achieving the 2035 target for TB elimination requires interrupting its community transmission, which depends critically on enhancing case detection. Active screening for TB in commu...
The size of an individual's tongue relative to the oral cavity is associated with articulation speed [Feng, Lu, Zheng, Chi, and Honda, in Proceedings of the 10th Biennial Asia Pacific Conference on Speech, Language, and Hearing (2017), pp. 17-19)] an...
This dataset provides the first annotated, openly available MRI-based imaging dataset for investigations of tongue musculature, including multi-contrast and multi-site MRI data from non-disease participants. The present dataset includes 47 participan...
