Surface electromyography (EMG) is valuable information instrumentation for understanding
the electrical activity of muscles. The function and role of the maxillofacial components are …

If surface electromyography (sEMG) can be used to determine neuromuscular disorders, it
can diagnose conditions more easily than needle electromyography. In this study, sEMG …

Although having a long history of scrutiny in experimental psychology, it is still controversial
whether wilful inner speech (covert speech) production is accompanied by specific activity in …

Immersive face-to-virtual-face telecommunication is one unique use case for virtual reality
(VR) technologies. Existing camera-based telephony systems cannot be used for such …

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate a novel communication system designed to translate
surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals from articulatory muscles into speech using a …

Silent speech interfaces (SSIs) enable speech recognition and synthesis in the absence of
an acoustic signal. Yet, the archetypal SSI fails to convey the expressive attributes of …

Silent speech interfaces (SSIs) have been developed as new non-acoustic communication
channels for people with speech impairment. Various modalities have been employed to …

Facial muscle coordination is a fundamental mechanism for facial mimics and expressions.
The understanding of this complex mechanism leads to better diagnosis and treatment of …

Objective Knowing the morphological, kinematic, and electrophysiological parameters of the
smile in healthy individuals may contribute to evaluating, planning, and monitoring the smile …

Purpose Functional inoperability in advanced oral cancer is difficult to assess
preoperatively. To assess functions of lips and tongue, biomechanical models are required …
