Fault-tolerant Control of Robot Manipulators with Sensory Faults using Unbiased Active Inference [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
This work presents a novel fault-tolerant control scheme based on active inference. Specifically, a new formulation of active inference which, unlike previous solutions, provides unbiased state estimation and simplifies the definition of probabilistically robust thresholds for fault-tolerant control of robotic systems using the free-energy.

Enhancing the Matrix Addressing of Flexible Sensory Arrays by a Highly Nonlinear Threshold Switch

open access: yesAdvances in Materials, 2018
The increasing need for smart systems in healthcare, wearable, and soft robotics is creating demand for low‐power sensory circuits that can detect pressure, temperature, strain, and other local variables.

Sensory-specific impairment among older people. An investigation using both sensory thresholds and subjective measures across the five senses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Age-related sensory impairment is a slow and gradual progress, which affects multiple modalities. Two contradictory hypotheses exist about the age-related decline of sensory thresholds.

Feasibility of Smartphone Vibrations as a Sensory Diagnostic Tool [PDF]

open access: yesHaptics: Science, Technology, Applications: 13th International Conference on Human Haptic Sensing and Touch Enabled Computer Applications, EuroHaptics 2022, Hamburg, Germany, May 22-25, 2022, Proceedings, Pages 337-339, 2022
Traditionally, clinicians use tuning forks as a binary measure to assess vibrotactile sensory perception. This approach has low measurement resolution, and the vibrations are highly variable. Therefore, we propose using vibrations from a smartphone to deliver a consistent and precise sensory test.

Objective estimation of sensory thresholds based on neurophysiological parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Reliable determination of sensory thresholds is the holy grail of signal detection theory. However, there exists no gold standard for the estimation of thresholds based on neurophysiological parameters, although a reliable estimation method is crucial for both scientific investigations and clinical diagnosis.

Galvanic vestibular stimulation produces cross-modal improvements in visual thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Background: Stochastic resonance (SR) refers to a faint signal being enhanced with the addition of white noise. Previous studies have found that vestibular perceptual thresholds are lowered with noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (i.e., "in-channel" SR).
