Sociable and Ergonomic Human-Robot Collaboration through Action Recognition and Augmented Hierarchical Quadratic Programming [PDF]
The recognition of actions performed by humans and the anticipation of their intentions are important enablers to yield sociable and successful collaboration in human-robot teams. Meanwhile, robots should have the capacity to deal with multiple objectives and constraints, arising from the collaborative task or the human.

Stride Length Estimation with Deep Learning [PDF]
Accurate estimation of spatial gait characteristics is critical to assess motor impairments resulting from neurological or musculoskeletal disease. Currently, however, methodological constraints limit clinical applicability of state-of-the-art double integration approaches to gait patterns with a clear zero-velocity phase.

A Lightweight CNN and Joint Shape-Joint Space (JS2) Descriptor for Radiological Osteoarthritis Detection [PDF]
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is very common progressive and degenerative musculoskeletal disease worldwide creates a heavy burden on patients with reduced quality of life and also on society due to financial impact. Therefore, any attempt to reduce the burden of the disease could help both patients and society.

Learning to Estimate Critical Gait Parameters from Single-View RGB Videos with Transformer-Based Attention Network [PDF]
Musculoskeletal diseases and cognitive impairments in patients lead to difficulties in movement as well as negative effects on their psychological health. Clinical gait analysis, a vital tool for early diagnosis and treatment, traditionally relies on expensive optical motion capture systems.

Necknasium: A Virtual Reality Rehabilitation Game for Managing Faulty Neck Posture [PDF]
This study is concerned with the application of virtual reality (VR) in rehabilitation programs for faulty neck posture which is a primary source of neck pain (NP). The latter is a highly prevalent musculoskeletal disorder that is associated with serious societal and economic burden.

Musculoskeletal diseases in forestry workers [PDF]
The most common hazards in the forestry that may induce disorders of the musculoskeletal system are vibrations, unfavorable microclimatic conditions, noise, over-time working hours, work load and long-term repeated movements.

Subassemblies and Asymmetry in Assembly of Herpes Simplex Virus Procapsid
The herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) capsid is a massive particle (~200 MDa; 1,250-Å diameter) with T=16 icosahedral symmetry. It initially assembles as a procapsid with ~4,000 protein subunits of 11 different kinds.
