The researchers used a machine-learning classification approach to better understand neurological features associated with periods of wayfinding uncertainty. The participants (n = 30) were asked to complete wayfinding tasks of varying difficulty in a virtu ...
Understanding behavior from neural activity is a fundamental goal in neuroscience. It has practical applications in building robust brain-machine interfaces, human-computer interaction, and assisting patients with neurological disabilities. Despite the eve ...
In the Vitruvian tradition, ornaments are classified into two categories: those that belong to the orders, and the others. If the former's relief is merely indicated by Vitruvio and Alberti, the latter is simply ignored, thus opening the way to licentia. ...
We consider the following class of fractional Schrodinger equations: (-Delta)(alpha)u + V(x)u = K(x)f(u) in R-N, where alpha is an element of (0, 1), N > 2 alpha, (-Delta)(alpha) is the fractional Laplacian, V and K are positive continuous functions which ...

Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) can be used to decode a user's motor intention to control an external device. People that suffer from motor disabilities, such as spinal cord injury, can benefit from the uses of these interfaces. While many solutions can be ...
Understanding cognitive states of human under different difficulty levels is useful in improving human-human and human-machine interactions. For example, a crucial factor in designing games is maintaining the engagement of players. An ideal scenario would ...
Electroactive polymers show promising characteristic such as lightness, compactness, flexibility and large displacements making them a candidate for application in cardiac assist devices. This revives the need for quasi- square wave voltage supply switchin ...
The invention relates to a hand exoskeleton device having a modular nature. The device is designed to be wearable, portable and light in weight, and comprises from one to ten modules each having an actuating mechanism such as a linear actuator coupled with ...
Decades of technological developments have populated the field of brain-machine interfaces and neuroprosthetics with several replacement strategies, neural modulation treatments, and rehabilitation techniques to improve the quality of life for patients aff ...
Gait and balance deficits are motor disabilities that typically develop late in the progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). These deficits are thought to be the result of dysregulated neural activity in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic-cortical motor lo ...
