Muscle Synergies and Clinical Outcome Measures Describe Different Factors of Upper Limb Motor Function in Stroke Survivors Undergoing Rehabilitation in a Virtual Reality Environment

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Recent studies have investigated muscle synergies as biomarkers for stroke, but it remains controversial if muscle synergies and clinical observation convey the same information on motor impairment.

Deciphering the functional role of spatial and temporal muscle synergies in whole-body movements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceVoluntary movement is hypothesized to rely on a limited number of muscle synergies, the recruitment of which translates task goals into effective muscle activity.

Probabilistic Models of Motor Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
N. Bernstein defined the ability of the central neural system (CNS) to control many degrees of freedom of a physical body with all its redundancy and flexibility as the main problem in motor control.

Motion control via muscle synergies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 8th ACM SIGGRAPH Conference on Motion in Games, 2015
In the current paper, we present a control method based on muscle synergy extraction and adaptation to drive a human arm in a direct dynamics simulation of an overhead throwing motion. The experimental protocol for synergy extraction and model are first presented, followed by a control method consisting of a series of optimizations to adapt muscle ...

Muscle Synergies Facilitate Computational Prediction of Subject-Specific Walking Motions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Researchers have explored a variety of neurorehabilitation approaches to restore normal walking function following a stroke. However, there is currently no objective means for prescribing and implementing treatments that are likely to maximize recovery ...

Fixed muscle synergies and their potential to improve the intuitive control of myoelectric assistive technology for upper extremities

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Users of myoelectric controlled assistive technology (AT) for upper extremities experience difficulties in controlling this technology in daily life, partly because the control is non-intuitive.

Neuromuscular mechanisms of motor adaptation to repeated gait-slip perturbations in older adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Individuals can rapidly develop adaptive skills for fall prevention after their exposure to the repeated-slip paradigm. However, the changes in neuromuscular control contributing to such motor adaptation remain unclear. This study investigated changes in

Muscle Synergies During a Single-Leg Drop-Landing in Boys and Girls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The purpose of this study was to investigate muscle activation patterns during a landing task in boys and girls through the use of muscle synergies. Electromyographical (EMG) data from six lower extremity muscles were collected from 11 boys and 16 girls ...
