Mapping Motor Cortex Stimulation to Muscle Responses: A Deep Neural Network Modeling Approach.

Conference The ... International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments : PETRA ... International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments · June 2020 A deep neural network (DNN) that can reliably model muscle responses from corresponding brain stimulation has the potential to increase knowledge of coordinated motor control for numerous basic science and applied use cases. Such cases include the understa ... Full text Cite

An experimental and computational framework for modeling multi-muscle responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation of the human motor cortex

Conference International IEEE EMBS Conference on Neural Engineering Ner · May 16, 2019 Current knowledge of coordinated motor control of multiple muscles is derived primarily from invasive stimulation-recording techniques in animal models. Similar studies are not generally feasible in humans, so a modeling framework is needed to facilitate k ... Full text Open Access Cite

Neurophysiology of Visual-Motor Learning during a Simulated Marksmanship Task in Immersive Virtual Reality

Conference 25th IEEE Conference on Virtual Reality and 3D User Interfaces VR 2018 Proceedings · August 24, 2018 Immersive virtual reality (VR) systems offer flexible control of an interactive environment, along with precise position and orientation tracking of realistic movements. Immersive VR can also be used in conjunction with neurophysiological monitoring techni ... Full text Open Access Cite
