Integrating Posture Control in Speech Motor Models: A Parallel-Structured Simulation Approach [PDF]
Posture is an essential aspect of motor behavior, necessitating continuous muscle activation to counteract gravity. It remains stable under perturbation, aiding in maintaining bodily balance and enabling movement execution. Similarities have been observed between gross body postures and speech postures, such as those involving the jaw, tongue, and lips,

Posture Sway and the Transition Rate for a Fall [PDF]
Postural body sway displacements for quiet standing subjects (measured with a new ultrasonic device) are reported. Two of the well known strategies for balancing, namely ankle and hip movements were probed. The data is modeled using a Fokker-Plank-Langevin stochastic theory. Both analytic and computer simulation techniques are employed.

Objective Despite diagnostic criteria refinements, Parkinson's disease (PD) clinical diagnosis still suffers from a not satisfying accuracy, with the post‐mortem examination as the gold standard for diagnosis. Seminal clinicopathological series highlighted that a relevant number of patients alive‐diagnosed with idiopathic PD have an alternative post ...
