Introduction Muscle synergies have been proposed as a strategy employed by the central
nervous system to control movements. Muscle synergy analysis is a well-established …

Background Aging is associated with changes in neuromuscular control that can lead to
difficulties in performing daily living tasks. Muscle synergy analysis allows the assessment of …

Objectives: Previous studies showed that the central nervous system (CNS) controls
movements by recruiting a low-dimensional set of modules, usually referred to as muscle …

Complex locomotor patterns are generated by combination of muscle synergies. How
genetic processes, early sensorimotor experiences, and the developmental dynamics of …

The muscle synergy is a guiding concept in motor control research that relies on the general
notion of muscles 'working together'towards task performance. However, although the …

Effective upper-limb rehabilitation for severely impaired stroke survivors is still missing.
Recent studies endorse novel motor rehabilitation approaches such as robotic exoskeletons …

Sensor-based assessments in medical practice and rehabilitation include the measurement
of physiological signals such as EEG, EMG, ECG, heart rate, and NIRS, and the recording of …

We investigated postural stability during simulated archery shooting. The experiment
consisted of two force release conditions: self-triggered (time-set in a feedforward fashion) …

As a neural control strategy employed by the central nervous system to control movements,
the extraction of muscle synergies from a broad range of electromyographic signals has …

In certain neurological disorders such as stroke, the impairment of upper limb function
significantly impacts daily life quality and necessitates enhanced neurological control. This …
