Musculoskeletal AutoEncoder: A Unified Online Acquisition Method of Intersensory Networks for State Estimation, Control, and Simulation of Musculoskeletal Humanoids [PDF]
While the musculoskeletal humanoid has various biomimetic benefits, the modeling of its complex structure is difficult, and many learning-based systems have been developed so far. There are various methods, such as control methods using acquired relationships between joints and muscles represented by a data table or neural network, and state estimation

Spine-Inspired Continuum Soft Exoskeleton for Stoop Lifting Assistance [PDF]
Back injuries are the most prevalent work-related musculoskeletal disorders and represent a major cause of disability. Although innovations in wearable robots aim to alleviate this hazard, the majority of existing exoskeletons are obtrusive because the rigid linkage design limits natural movement, thus causing ergonomic risk.

Smart Textile-Driven Soft Spine Exosuit for Lifting Tasks in Industrial Applications [PDF]
Work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are often caused by repetitive lifting, making them a significant concern in occupational health. Although wearable assist devices have become the norm for mitigating the risk of back pain, most spinal assist devices still possess a partially rigid structure that impacts the user comfort and flexibility ...
