The central nervous system simplifies motor control by sending motor commands activating
groups of muscles, known as synergies. Physiological locomotion can be described as a …

Objective: The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the effects of transcutaneous
spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) and short-burst interval locomotor treadmill training (SBLTT) …

Objectives Muscle activity during crouched walking has been previously studied in the
context of the evolution of hominin bipedalism and human movement disorders. However …

Recent studies of in vivo muscle function in guinea fowl revealed that distal leg muscles
rapidly modulate force and work to stabilize running in uneven terrain. Previous studies …

Three-dimensional (3D) cameras used for gait assessment obviate the need for bodily
markers or sensors, making them particularly interesting for clinical applications. Due to their …

Understanding how the central nervous system coordinates diverse motor outputs has been
a topic of extensive investigation. Although it is generally accepted that a small set of …

Children with cerebral palsy (CP) experience spasticity that negatively affects their mobility.
Current spasticity treatments reduce spasticity but do not improve walking function. The goal …

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurologic injury that impacts control of movement. Individuals with
CP also often develop secondary impairments like weakness and contracture. Both altered …

Motor module (aka muscle synergy) analysis has frequently been used to provide insight
into changes in muscle coordination associated with declines in walking performance, to …

When applying continuous motion estimation (CME) model based on sEMG to human-robot
system, it is inevitable to encounter scenarios in which the motions performed by the user …
