Neural plasticity during motor learning with motor imagery practice: Review and perspectives

C Ruffino, C Papaxanthis, F Lebon - Neuroscience, 2017 - Elsevier
In the last decade, many studies confirmed the benefits of mental practice with motor
imagery. In this review we first aimed to compile data issued from fundamental and clinical …

The gravitational imprint on sensorimotor planning and control

O White, J Gaveau, L Bringoux… - Journal of …, 2020 - journals.physiology.org
Humans excel at learning complex tasks, and elite performers such as musicians or athletes
develop motor skills that defy biomechanical constraints. All actions require the movement of …

Characterizing embodied interaction in first and third person perspective viewpoints

HG Debarba, E Molla, B Herbelin… - 2015 IEEE symposium …, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Third Person Perspective (3PP) viewpoints have the potential to expand how one perceives

against gravity strongly differs from moving along the gravity vector. This directional …

Human motion understanding for selecting action timing in collaborative human-robot interaction

F Rea, A Vignolo, A Sciutti, N Noceti - Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2019 - frontiersin.org
In the industry of the future, so as in healthcare and at home, robots will be a familiar
presence. Since they will be working closely with human operators not always properly …

Optimality and modularity in human movement: from optimal control to muscle synergies

B Berret, I Delis, J Gaveau, F Jean - Biomechanics of anthropomorphic …, 2019 - Springer
In this chapter, we review recent work related to the optimal and modular control hypotheses
for human movement. Optimal control theory is often thought to imply that the brain …

Probing motor dynamics at the muscle level—Acoustic myography in Parkinson's disease

M Celicanin, AP Harrison… - Physiological …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Acoustic myography (AMG) noninvasively probes muscle activity. We explored whether
