Biomechanical Evaluation of Fingers Repetitive Voluntary Tasks in Chronic Stroke Survivors
A chronic stroke affects hand mobility limiting the normal functioning of the finger joints. The voluntary tasks with a repetitive motion can identify the limitation in the range of motion (ROM) to enhance the hand functioning of stroke survivors ...

Carry-over coarticulation in joint angles [PDF]
Coarticulation indicates a dependence of a movement segment on a preceding segment (carry-over coarticulation) or on the segment that follows (anticipatory coarticulation). Here we study coarticulation in multidegrees of freedom human arm movements. We asked participants to transport a cylinder from a starting position to a center target and on to a ...

Joint angle estimation with wavelet neural networks [PDF]
AbstractThis paper presents a wavelet neural network (WNN) based method to reduce reliance on wearable kinematic sensors in gait analysis. Wearable kinematic sensors hinder real-time outdoor gait monitoring applications due to drawbacks caused by multiple sensor placements and sensor offset errors.

Effect of Subcutaneous Muscle Displacement of Flexor Carpi Radialis on Surface Electromyography
Changes in joint angle can change the position and orientation of muscle fibers relative to the surface EMG electrode. Our previous study has shown that EMG patterns can identify hand/wrist movements with a greater degree of classification accuracy (CA ...

Angle-based joint and individual variation explained [PDF]
Integrative analysis of disparate data blocks measured on a common set of experimental subjects is a major challenge in modern data analysis. This data structure naturally motivates the simultaneous exploration of the joint and individual variation within each data block resulting in new insights. For instance, there is a strong desire to integrate the
