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

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