Self‐Sensing Artificial‐Muscle‐Empowered Humanlike Perception, Interaction, and Positioning

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The proposed self‐sensorized artificial muscle (SSAM) can sense its length change as small as 0.01 mm via a seamlessly integrated multi‐segment induction coil. The SSAM provides accurate length information regardless of its loadings, driving pressure, or muscle design, adequate for robust data‐driven feedback control.

“A lot of it is about feel”: The promise of sensory ethnography for anatomical education research

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Ethnographers have constructed rich accounts of cultural settings since the early nineteenth century. A new approach, sensory ethnography, holds great promise for Health Professions Education scholars in its incorporation of the senses, particularly regarding anatomical teaching and learning. In this article, we describe sensory ethnography as

A Multivariate Method for Dynamic System Analysis: Multivariate Detrended Fluctuation Analysis Using Generalized Variance

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Fractal fluctuations are a core concept for inquiries into human behavior and cognition from a dynamic systems perspective. Here, we present a generalized variance method for multivariate detrended fluctuation analysis (mvDFA). The advantage of this extension is that it can be applied to multivariate time series and considers intercorrelation ...
