Long-Term Gait-Balance Monitoring Artificial Intelligence System for Various Terrain Types

Long-Term Gait-Balance Monitoring Artificial Intelligence System for Various Terrain Types 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
A long-term gait-balance monitoring system for various terrain types was developed using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and deep-learning model. The system aims to identify unstable gait caused by lower-limb… read more

Identification of Spared and Proportionally Controllable Hand Motor Dimensions in Motor Complete Spinal Cord Injuries Using Latent Manifold Analysis

Identification of Spared and Proportionally Controllable Hand Motor Dimensions in Motor Complete Spinal Cord Injuries Using Latent Manifold Analysis 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
The loss of bilateral hand function is a debilitating challenge for millions of individuals that suffered a motor-complete spinal cord injury (SCI). We have recently demonstrated in eight tetraplegic individuals… read more
