The The abdominal muscles – a functional review

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2007
The role of the abdominal muscles in human function as well as their physiological mechanisms for these has been the subject of an increasing volume of reported research for more than 20 years. The abdominal muscles participate in a wide range of diverse

A color hand gesture database for evaluating and improving algorithms on hand gesture and posture recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
With the increase of research activities in vision-based hand posture and gesture recognition, new methods and algorithms are being developed. Although less attention is being paid to developing a standard platform for this purpose.

A Pinned Polymer Model of Posture Control

open access: yes, 1995
A phenomenological model of human posture control is posited. The dynamics are modelled as an elastically pinned polymer under the influence of noise. The model accurately reproduces the two-point correlation functions of experimental posture data and ...

Precision‐Optimised Post‐Stroke Prognoses

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Current medicine cannot confidently predict who will recover from post‐stroke impairments. Researchers have sought to bridge this gap by treating the post‐stroke prognostic problem as a machine learning problem, reporting prediction error metrics across samples of patients whose outcomes are known.

Ergonomic behaviour of learners in a digitally driven school environment: Modification using an ergonomic intervention programme

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2018
Background: Computer use is increasing amongst adolescents and so is the potential for related musculoskeletal pain and postural changes. The cumulative effect of this technology-induced, sedentary lifestyle leads to poor posture, pain, repetitive strain

Neural, mechanical, and geometric factors subserving arm posture in humans

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1985
When the hand is displaced from an equilibrium posture by an external disturbance, a force is generated to restore the original position. We developed a new experimental method to measure and represent the field of elastic forces associated with posture ...

Fetal Akinesia/Hypokinesia and Arthrogryposis of Neuromuscular Origin: Etiologic Groups, Genetics, and Phenotypic Spectrum

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To provide a comprehensive clinical and genetic characterization of individuals with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC), focusing on the distribution of genetic etiologies across the neuromuscular spectrum and comparing myogenic and neurogenic subtypes. Methods A total of 105 individuals with AMC were clinically and genetically

A Characterization of Cybersecurity Posture from Network Telescope Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Data-driven understanding of cybersecurity posture is an important problem that has not been adequately explored. In this paper, we analyze some real data collected by CAIDA's network telescope during the month of March 2013.
