LSTM-MSA: A Novel Deep Learning Model With Dual-Stage Attention Mechanisms Forearm EMG-Based Hand Gesture Recognition.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
This paper introduces the Long Short-Term Memory with Dual-Stage Attention (LSTM-MSA) model, an approach for analyzing electromyography (EMG) signals. EMG signals are crucial in applications like prosthetic control, rehabilitation, and human-computer...

Robot-assisted rehabilitation of people with breast cancer developing upper limb lymphedema: protocol of a randomized controlled trial with a 6-month follow‑up.

Trials
Upper limb lymphedema (ULLy) is an external (and/or internal) manifestation of lymphatic system insufficiency and deranged lymph transport for more than 3 months and frequently affects people as a consequence of breast cancer (BC). ULLy is often unde...

User Experience Evaluation of Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robots: Implications for Design Optimization: A Pilot Study.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
With the development of science and technology, people are trying to use robots to assist in stroke rehabilitation training. This study aims to analyze the result of the formative test to provide the orientation of upper limb rehabilitation robot des...

Transformation of foldable robotic hand to scissor-like shape for pinching based on human hand movement.

Scientific reports
Increasing the number of degrees of freedom for multi-finger robotic hands is necessary to achieve high performance. However, this increases structural complexity and the obtained improvement may be small. Humans change the shape of their hands by ex...

Recognition of Grasping Patterns Using Deep Learning for Human-Robot Collaboration.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Recent advances in the field of collaborative robotics aim to endow industrial robots with prediction and anticipation abilities. In many shared tasks, the robot's ability to accurately perceive and recognize the objects being manipulated by the huma...

Design and Analysis of an Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot Based on Multimodal Control.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
To address the rehabilitation needs of upper limb hemiplegic patients in various stages of recovery, streamline the workload of rehabilitation professionals, and provide data visualization, our research team designed a six-degree-of-freedom upper lim...

Effectiveness of Robotics in Stroke Rehabilitation to Accelerate Upper Extremity Function: Systematic Review.

Occupational therapy international
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effectiveness of robot-assisted therapy (RAT) combined with conventional therapy (CT) compared to CT alone in accelerating upper extremity (UE) recovery poststroke. . We searched five databases: Ovid, MEDLINE, CINAHL, PubMed...

Touching reality: Bridging the user-researcher divide in upper-limb prosthetics.

Science robotics
Realistically improving upper-limb prostheses is only possible if we listen to users' actual technological needs.

A robot-aided visuomotor wrist training induces motor and proprioceptive learning that transfers to the untrained ipsilateral elbow.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Learning of a visuomotor task not only leads to changes in motor performance but also improves proprioceptive function of the trained joint/limb system. Such sensorimotor learning may show intra-joint transfer that is observable at a prev...
