Bioengineering, 2021 Hand prostheses partially restore hand appearance and functionalities. In particular, 3D printers have provided great opportunities by simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing costs. The “Federica” hand is 3D-printed and equipped with a single servomotor, which synergically actuates its five fingers by inextensible tendons; no springs are ...

Journal of General Internal Medicine, 2002 Examination of the hands has the potential to transform the encounter between physician and patient. Taking the hands conveys a sense of warmth and connectedness and is a means to communicate the physician's mindfulness. The hands can focus the examination on the individual patient as a complete human being, and not merely a disease or a collection of ...

G protein‐coupled receptors: walking hand‐in‐hand, talking hand‐in‐hand? [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 2011 Most cells express a panel of different G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) allowing them to respond to at least a corresponding variety of extracellular ligands. In order to come to an integrative well‐balanced functional response these ligand–receptor pairs can often cross‐regulate each other.

The Invisible Hand and the Grabbing Hand [PDF]
, 1996 Evidence from a survey of 105 shop-owners in Moscow and Warsaw shows that the reliance on private protection, as well as the burden of regulation and corruption, are much greater in Moscow. The evidence suggests that the `invisible hand' model of government better fits the Warsaw local government, and the`grabbing hand' model is more appropriate for ...

3D Interacting Hand Pose Estimation by Hand De-occlusion and Removal [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Estimating 3D interacting hand pose from a single RGB image is essential for understanding human actions. Unlike most previous works that directly predict the 3D poses of two interacting hands simultaneously, we propose to decompose the challenging interacting hand pose estimation task and estimate the pose of each hand separately.

Egocentric View Hand Action Recognition by Leveraging Hand Surface and Hand Grasp Type [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We introduce a multi-stage framework that uses mean curvature on a hand surface and focuses on learning interaction between hand and object by analyzing hand grasp type for hand action recognition in egocentric videos. The proposed method does not require 3D information of objects including 6D object poses which are difficult to annotate for learning ...
