Towards Techno-human: A Brief History of Artificial Limbs and Organs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Human and Health Sciences, 2022
Background: The ‘techno-human’, which is the result of combining the human body with a machine or device which we have been made familiar with through science fiction movies, is frequently perceived as a distant and futuristic concept.

Assessing Upper Limb Motor Function in the Immediate Post-Stroke Perioud Using Accelerometry [PDF]

open access: yes2023 IEEE Conference on Artificial Intelligence (CAI), Santa Clara, 2023, pp. 132-33, 2023
Accelerometry has been extensively studied as an objective means of measuring upper limb function in patients post-stroke. The objective of this paper is to determine whether the accelerometry-derived measurements frequently used in more long-term rehabilitation studies can also be used to monitor and rapidly detect sudden changes in upper limb motor ...

Phantom motion intent decoding for transhumeral prosthesis control with fused neuromuscular and brain wave signals

open access: yesIET Cyber-systems and Robotics, 2021
In recent years, the electroencephalography (EEG) brain–computer interface (BCI) has been researched in the area of upper‐limb prosthesis control due to the promise of being able to record neurological signals which follow activation patterns in the ...

A Novel Respiratory Control and Actuation System for Upper-Limb Prosthesis Users: Clinical Evaluation Study

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
The most widely-used active upper-limb (UL) prostheses worldwide are body-powered (BP), which is a two-century-old technology. Despite their affordability and functional benefits to users, these devices are prone to poor outcomes for many patients ...

Topology of surface electromyogram signals: hand gesture decoding on Riemannian manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes2024 J. Neural Eng. 21 036047, 2023
$\textit{Objective.}$ In this article, we present data and methods for decoding hand gestures using surface electromyogram (EMG) signals. EMG-based upper limb interfaces are valuable for amputee rehabilitation, artificial supernumerary limb augmentation, gestural control of computers, and virtual and augmented reality applications. $\textit{Approach.}$

Reactive Reinforcement Learning in Asynchronous Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2018
The relationship between a reinforcement learning (RL) agent and an asynchronous environment is often ignored. Frequently used models of the interaction between an agent and its environment, such as Markov Decision Processes (MDP) or Semi-Markov Decision
