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

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