Optimal control of ankle joint moment: Toward unsupported standing in paraplegia [PDF]

, 1998
This paper considers part of the problem of how to provide unsupported standing for paraplegics by feedback control. In this work our overall objective is to stabilize the subject by stimulation only of his ankle joints while the other joints are braced,

Neural control of motor prostheses

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
Neural interfaces (NIs) for motor control have recently become increasingly advanced. This has been possible owing to substantial progress in our understanding of the cortical motor system as well as the development of appropriate decoding methods in both non-human primates and paralyzed patients.

Stable Electromyographic Sequence Prediction During Movement Transitions using Temporal Convolutional Networks

, 2019
Transient muscle movements influence the temporal structure of myoelectric signal patterns, often leading to unstable prediction behavior from movement-pattern classification methods. We show that temporal convolutional network sequential models leverage

Action and non-action oriented body representations. insight from behavioural and grey matter modifications in individuals with lower limb amputation [PDF]

, 2018
Following current model of body representations, we aimed to systematically investigate the association between brain modifications, in terms of grey matter loss, and body representation deficits, in terms of alterations of the body schema (BS) and of ...
