Online identification and nonlinear control of the electrically stimulated quadriceps muscle [PDF]
A new approach for estimating nonlinear models of the electrically stimulated quadriceps muscle group under nonisometric conditions is investigated. The model can be used for designing controlled neuro-prostheses. In order to identify the muscle dynamics

3D-Posture Recognition Using Joint Angle Representation [PDF]
This paper presents an approach for action recognition performed by human using the joint angles from skeleton information. Unlike classical approaches that focus on the body silhouette, our approach uses body joint angles estimated directly from time-series skeleton sequences captured by depth sensor.

A machine learning approach for saddle height classification in cycling
BackgroundSaddle height is an important factor in bike fitting because it correlates with cycling efficiency and the risk of injuries. Conventional approaches use anthropometric parameters and joint angles as references to calculate the optimal saddle ...

Rubber Hand Illusion Affects Joint Angle Perception
The Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI) is a well-established experimental paradigm. It has been shown that the RHI can affect hand location estimates, arm and hand motion towards goals, the subjective visual appearance of the own hand, and the feeling of body ownership.

Fusimotor Control of Spindle Sensitivity Regulates Central and Peripheral Coding of Joint Angles
Proprioceptive afferents from muscle spindles encode information about peripheral joint movements for the central nervous system (CNS). The sensitivity of muscle spindle is nonlinearly dependent on the activation of gamma (γ) motoneurons in the spinal ...

A Generalized Framework on Beamformer Design and CSI Acquisition for Single-Carrier Massive MIMO Systems in Millimeter Wave Channels [PDF]
In this paper, we establish a general framework on the reduced dimensional channel state information (CSI) estimation and pre-beamformer design for frequency-selective massive multiple-input multiple-output MIMO systems employing single-carrier (SC ...

Low-level finite state control of knee joint in paraplegic standing [PDF]
Low-level finite state (locked-unlocked) control is compared with open-loop stimulation of the knee extensor muscles in functional electrical stimulation (FES) induced paraplegic standing.

Nonlinear joint angle control for artificially stimulated muscle [PDF]
Designs of both open- and closed-loop controllers of electrically stimulated muscle that explicitly depend on a nonlinear mathematical model of muscle input-output properties are presented and evaluated. The muscle model consists of three factors: a muscle activation dynamics factor, an angle-torque relationship factor, and an angular velocity torque ...

Body-Worn IMU-Based Human Hip and Knee Kinematics Estimation during Treadmill Walking
Traditionally, inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based human joint angle estimation techniques are evaluated for general human motion where human joints explore all of their degrees of freedom.
