AI in therapeutic and assistive exoskeletons and exosuits: Influences on performance and autonomy.

Science robotics
Therapeutic and assistive exoskeletons and exosuits show promise in both clinical and real-world settings. Improving their autonomy can enhance usability, effectiveness, and cost efficiency. This Review presents a generic control framework for autono...

Effects and neural mechanisms of a brain-computer interface-controlled soft robotic glove on upper limb function in patients with subacute stroke: a randomized controlled fNIRS study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The brain-computer interface-based soft robotic glove (BCI-SRG) holds promise for upper limb rehabilitation in subacute stroke patients, yet its efficacy and neural mechanisms are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the t...

An investigation of multimodal EMG-EEG fusion strategies for upper-limb gesture classification.

Journal of neural engineering
. Upper-limb gesture identification is an important problem in the advancement of robotic prostheses. Prevailing research into classifying electromyographic (EMG) muscular data or electroencephalographic (EEG) brain data for this purpose is often lim...

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...

Upper limb human-exoskeleton system motion state classification based on semg: application of CNN-BiLSTM-attention model.

Scientific reports
This study aims to classify five typical motion states of the human upper limb based on surface electromyography signals, thereby supporting the real-time control system of an assistive upper limb exoskeleton. We propose a deep learning model combini...

An EEG-EMG dataset from a standardized reaching task for biomarker research in upper limb assessment.

Scientific data
This work describes a dataset containing high-density EEG (hd-EEG) and surface electromiography (sEMG) to capture neuromechanical responses during a reaching task with and without the assistance of an upper-limb exoskeleton. It was designed to explor...

A robotic rehabilitation intervention in a home setting during the Covid-19 outbreak: a feasibility pilot study in patients with stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Telerehabilitation allows patients to engage in therapy away from healthcare facilities, often in the comfort of their homes. Studies have suggested that it can effectively improve motor and cognitive function. However, its applicability ...

Frailty identification using a sensor-based upper-extremity function test: a deep learning approach.

Scientific reports
The global increase in the older adult population highlights the need for effective frailty assessment, a condition linked to adverse health outcomes such as hospitalization and mortality. Existing frailty assessment tools, like the Fried phenotype a...
