Lower-Limb Myoelectric Calibration Postures for Transtibial Prostheses

Lower-Limb Myoelectric Calibration Postures for Transtibial Prostheses 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
The use of an agonist-antagonist muscle pair for myoelectric control of a transtibial prosthesis requires normalizing the myoelectric signals and identifying their co-contraction signature. Extensive literature has explored the relationship… read more

EEG-Based Brain Functional Network Analysis for Differential Identification of Dementia-Related Disorders and Their Onset

EEG-Based Brain Functional Network Analysis for Differential Identification of Dementia-Related Disorders and Their Onset 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Diagnosing and treating dementia, including mild cognitive impairment (MCI), is challenging due to diverse disease types and overlapping symptoms. Early MCI detection is vital as it can precede dementia, yet… read more
