Investigating the Stroke- and Aging-related Changes in Intermuscular Coupling by Refined Composed Multiscale Fuzzy Entropy

Investigating the Stroke- and Aging-related Changes in Intermuscular Coupling by Refined Composed Multiscale Fuzzy Entropy 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Although the entropy algorithm is widely applied in signal complexity analysis, its stability and reliability are limited due to the existence of abnormal signal points. In order to explore the… read more

A Wearable Brain-Computer Interface with Fewer EEG Channels for Online Motor Imagery Detection

A Wearable Brain-Computer Interface with Fewer EEG Channels for Online Motor Imagery Detection 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Motor imagery-based brain-computer interfaces (MI-BCIs) have significant potential for neurorehabilitation and motor recovery. However, most BCI systems employ multi-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) recording devices, during which the pre-experimental preparation and post-experimental… read more

Changes in Spatiotemporal Variability of Muscular Response under the Influence of Post-stroke Spasticity

Changes in Spatiotemporal Variability of Muscular Response under the Influence of Post-stroke Spasticity 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Spasticity is characterized by involuntary muscle activation due to the hyperexcitability of the stretch reflex. However, the temporal pattern and spatial heterogeneity of motor unit recruitment in this activation are… read more
