EEG hyperscanning in motor rehabilitation: a position paper

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Studying the human brain during interpersonal interaction allows us to answer many questions related to motor control and cognition. For instance, what happens in the brain when two people walking side by side begin to change their gait and match ...

A Deep CNN Framework for Neural Drive Estimation From HD-EMG Across Contraction Intensities and Joint Angles

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Objective: Previous studies have demonstrated promising results in estimating the neural drive to muscles, the net output of all motoneurons that innervate the muscle, using high-density electromyography (HD-EMG) for the purpose of interfacing with ...

Human-machine-human interaction in motor control and rehabilitation: a review

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Background Human-human (HH) interaction mediated by machines (e.g., robots or passive sensorized devices), which we call human-machine-human (HMH) interaction, has been studied with increasing interest in the last decade.

Robust projections and consequences of an expanding bimodal growing season in the western United States

Ecosphere, 2023
Plant growth is restricted to times of the year when actual evapotranspiration (AET) is greater than zero because AET requires both the presence of water in the soil and temperatures warm enough to allow transpiration.
