PURPOSE: Enormous assistance is required during rehabilitation activities, which might result in a variety of complications if performed manually. To solve this issue, several solutions in the form of assistive devices have been presented recently. A...
The central-to-peripheral voluntary motor effort (VME) in the affected limb is a dominant force for driving the functional neuroplasticity on motor restoration post-stroke. However, current rehabilitation robots isolated the central and peripheral in...
There is currently no efficient way to quantify overhead throwing volume in water polo. Therefore, this study aimed to test the feasibility of a method to detect passes and shots in water polo automatically using inertial measurement units (IMU) and ...

Many upper-limb prostheses lack proper wrist rotation functionality, leading to users performing poor compensatory strategies, leading to overuse or abandonment. In this study, we investigate the validity of creating and implementing a data-driven pr...
Hospitals, especially their emergency services, receive a high number of wrist fracture cases. For correct diagnosis and proper treatment of these, images obtained from various medical equipment must be viewed by physicians, along with the patient's ...
Motion classification can be performed using biometric signals recorded by electroencephalography (EEG) or electromyography (EMG) with noninvasive surface electrodes for the control of prosthetic arms. However, current single-modal EEG and EMG based ...
In recent years, fracture image diagnosis using a convolutional neural network (CNN) has been reported. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the ability of CNN to diagnose distal radius fractures (DRFs) using frontal and lateral wrist rad...
The ability to forecast seizures minutes to hours in advance of an event has been verified using invasive EEG devices, but has not been previously demonstrated using noninvasive wearable devices over long durations in an ambulatory setting. In this s...
The number of smart homes is rapidly increasing. Smart homes typically feature functions such as voice-activated functions, automation, monitoring, and tracking events. Besides comfort and convenience, the integration of smart home functionality with...
