Scientific journal - A Hand Gesture Recognition Strategy Based on Virtual-Dimension Increase of EMG

Cyborg and Bionic Systems, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 5, 29 Jan. 2024, Peer-reviwed, The electromyography(EMG) signal is the biocurrent associated with muscle contraction and can be used as the input signal to a myoelectric intelligent bionic hand to control different gestures of the hand. Increasing the number of myoelectric-signal channels can yield richer information of motion intention and improve the accuracy of gesture recognition. However, as the number of acquisition channels increases, its effect on the improvement of the accuracy of gesture recognition gradually diminishes, resulting in the improvement of the control effect reaching a plateau. To address these problems, this paper presents a proposed method to improve gesture recognition accuracy by virtually increasing the number of EMG signal channels. This method is able to improve the recognition accuracy of various gestures by virtually increasing the number of EMG signal channels and enriching the motion intention information extracted from data collected from a certain number of physical channels, ultimately providing a solution to the issue of the recognition accuracy plateau caused by saturation of information from physical recordings. Meanwhile, based on the idea of the filtered feature selection method, a quantitative measure of sample sets (separability of feature vectors [SFV]) derived from the divergence and correlation of the extracted features is introduced. The SFV value can predict the classification effect before performing the classification, and the effectiveness of the virtual-dimension increase strategy is verified from the perspective of feature set differentiability change. Compared to the statistical motion intention recognition success rate, SFV is a more representative and faster measure of classification effectiveness and is also suitable for small sample sets.

Scientific journal - Coevolution of Myoelectric Hand Control under the Tactile Interaction among Fingers and Objects
Yuki Kuroda; Yusuke Yamanoi; Shunta Togo; Yinlai Jiang; Hiroshi Yokoi
Cyborg and Bionic Systems, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2022, Nov. 2022, Peer-reviwed, The usability of a prosthetic hand differs significantly from that of a real hand. Moreover, the complexity of manipulation increases as the number of degrees of freedom to be controlled increases, making manipulation with biological signals extremely difficult. To overcome this problem, users need to select a grasping posture that is adaptive to the object and a stable grasping method that prevents the object from falling. In previous studies, these have been left to the operating skills of the user, which is extremely difficult to achieve. In this study, we demonstrate how stable and adaptive grasping can be achieved according to the object regardless of the user’s operation technique. The required grasping technique is achieved by determining the correlation between the motor output and each sensor through the interaction between the prosthetic hand and the surrounding stimuli, such as myoelectricity, sense of touch, and grasping objects. The agents of the 16-DOF robot hand were trained with the myoelectric signals of six participants, including one child with a congenital forearm deficiency. Consequently, each agent could open and close the hand in response to the myoelectric stimuli and could accomplish the object pickup task. For the tasks, the agents successfully identified grasping patterns suitable for practical and stable positioning of the objects. In addition, the agents were able to pick up the object in a similar posture regardless of the participant, suggesting that the hand was optimized by evolutionary computation to a posture that prevents the object from being dropped.

Scientific journal - Survey on Main Drive Methods Used in Humanoid Robotic Upper Limb
Yiwei Wang; Wenyang Li; Shunta Togo; Hiroshi Yokoi; Yinlai Jiang
Cyborg and Bionic Systems, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2021, 2021, Peer-reviwed, Humanoid robotic upper limbs including the robotic hand and robotic arm are widely studied as the important parts of a humanoid robot. A robotic upper limb with light weight and high output can perform more tasks. The drive system is one of the main factors affecting the weight and output of the robotic upper limb, and therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the effects of the different drive methods on the overall structure. In this paper, we first introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the main drive methods such as tendon, gear, link, fluid (hydraulic and pneumatic), belt, chain, and screw drives. The design of the drive system is an essential factor to allow the humanoid robotic upper limb to exhibit the structural features and functions of the human upper limb. Therefore, the specific applications of each drive method on the humanoid robotic limbs are illustrated and briefly analyzed. Meanwhile, we compared the differences in the weight and payload (or grasping force) of the robotic hands and robotic arms with different drive methods. The results showed that the tendon drive system is easier to achieve light weight due to its simple structure, while the gear drive system can achieve a larger torque ratio, which results in a larger output torque. Further, the weight of the actuator accounts for a larger proportion of the total weight, and a reasonable external placement of the actuator is also beneficial to achieve light weight.

Sensors, MDPI AG, 21, 18, 6234-6234, 2021, Peer-reviwed, Myoelectric prosthesis has become an important aid to disabled people. Although it can help people to recover to a nearly normal life, whether they can adapt to severe working conditions is a subject that is yet to be studied. Generally speaking, the working environment is dominated by vibration. This paper takes the gripping action as its research object, and focuses on the identification of grasping intentions under different vibration frequencies in different working conditions. In this way, the possibility of the disabled people who wear myoelectric prosthesis to work in various vibration environment is studied. In this paper, an experimental test platform capable of simulating 0–50 Hz vibration was established, and the Surface Electromyography (sEMG) signals of the human arm in the open and grasping states were obtained through the MP160 physiological record analysis system. Considering the reliability of human intention recognition and the rapidity of algorithm processing, six different time-domain features and the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) classifier were selected as the sEMG signal feature extraction and recognition algorithms in this paper. When two kinds of features, Zero Crossing (ZC) and Root Mean Square (RMS), were used as input, the accuracy of LDA algorithm can reach 96.9%. When three features, RMS, Minimum Value (MIN), and Variance (VAR), were used as inputs, the accuracy of the LDA algorithm can reach 98.0%. When the six features were used as inputs, the accuracy of the LDA algorithm reached 98.4%. In the analysis of different vibration frequencies, it was found that when the vibration frequency reached 20 Hz, the average accuracy of the LDA algorithm in recognizing actions was low, while at 0 Hz, 40 Hz and 50 Hz, the average accuracy was relatively high. This is of great significance in guiding disabled people to work in a vibration environment in the future.

バイオメカニズム学会誌, Society of Biomechanisms, 43, 4, 248-255, 2019, Peer-reviwed, To realize an electric shoulder prosthesis arm system that can be used without long-term training, we developed an intuitive shoulder disarticulation prosthesis system. The developed system consisted of four degrees of freedom joints and control system adapting a user through machine learning technique and surface myoelectric potential of the trunk. We measured the surface myoelectric potential of the trunk of healthy subjects at multiple points and analyzed by using a principal component analysis to identify the proper myoelectric potential measurement part of the trunk. As a result, it was revealed that the proper EMG measurement site of the trunk is distributed in the chest and back. In addition, as a result of the experiment of verifying the grasping / moving motion of the object by the shoulder artificial arm using the surface myoelectric potential of the chest and the back for controlling the motion of the arm, all the subjects successfully grasped and moved the object within a certain period of time.

Proceedings of the Fuzzy System Symposium, Japan Society for Fuzzy Theory and Intelligent Informatics, 30, 694-697, 2014, Use of a myoelectric prosthetic hand is an effective way to rehabilitate upper limb motor function of amputee. In our previous study, we have already developed a two DoF prosthetic hand which has driving MP (meta phalangeal) joint of interlocked middle finger and index finger, and CM (carpometacarpal) joint of thumb. It is structured to perform three grasping postures, namely, power grip, precision grip and lateral pinch. To realize holding function with these postures, 85% of hand movement for ADL is covered. Though the grip performance of the hand depends on joint angles of thumb and fingers, the shape of hand was decided on an empirically. Therefore, the problem that we cannot design the shape of hand according to desired function was remained. It should be solved to clarify the relationship between hand functions and shape with a proper shape model. In this study, we proposed a shape model for function design of the two-DoF prosthetic hand, and confirmed the hand function by some experiments. Then, we measured their gripping force by pull-out test, and evaluated the hand function in daily life by Pick-and-Place task with selected target which are frequently used in daily life. The result shows following tendency: (1) the bending angles of fingers and thumb are larger, their pull-out force are larger, and their grasping function- are lower, (2) the bending angles of fingers and thumb are smaller, their pull-out force are smaller, and their grasping functions are higher.

Yina Wang; Shuoyu Wang; Yinlai Jiang; Yo Kobayashi; Masakatsu G Fujie
ICIC express letters, ICIC International, 8, 1, 295-301, 2014, Peer-reviwed, Wheeled mobile robots suitable for a variety of applications in a wide field have been studied for many years. In any application, it is necessary to ensure the motion performance of a wheeled mobile robot to guarantee its reliability and security. However, it is difficult to control the motion of wheeled mobile robot because it is a three-dimensional two-input nonholonomic system. In this paper, we address the problem of motion under nonholonomic constraints for the wheeled mobile robot based on the fact that one can direct a nonholonomic automobile to track any path in a wide space by adjusting its velocity and orientation angle on-line. First, an on-line trajectory planning method is proposed to generate the reference velocity and the orientation angle according to the target position and the robot's current position. Then, the feedback velocity and orientation control law are designed based on the dynamic model. Finally, experiments are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

Proceedings of the Fuzzy System Symposium, Japan Society for Fuzzy Theory and Intelligent Informatics, 29, 127-127, 2013, In order to make robots more intelligent, the analysis, acquisition, and application of the human control strategy are drawing more and more attention. In this paper, we develop an intelligent game robot on an omnidirectional mobile platform which is made up of three omniwheels. The game platform consists of a square flat board, a ball, and a camera used to record the position of the ball. There is a goal on the board and the task is to move the ball into the goal by operating the robot. We analyzed the human control strategy in the ball-into-goal game based on the relationship between the human operation and the position of the ball on the board. The human control strategy was described by the relationship. The effectiveness of knowledge acquisition is demonstrated by an experiment in which the robot automatically played the game with the knowledge.

The Proceedings of Mechanical Engineering Congress, Japan, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2013, _J151014-1-_J151014-5, 2013, Abstract: With the rapidly increasing aging population in need of long-term care and the decreasing youth population, the elder-to-elder nursing care has become a serious social issue, and an intelligent robot that supports elderly people's everyday life is highly sought after. It is highly desirable that people with the impairment in lower extremities will not become bed-ridden due to their lack of muscle strength to maintain standing posture. Therefore, the authors have been working to develop an intelligent walking support robot that enhances a person's residual functional capacity of lower extremities. This report proposes a motion controller of the intelligent walking support robot that uses digital acceleration control method and confirms the effectiveness of the proposed controller by conducting simulations and experiments. The digital acceleration controller is an effective control method to deal with the effect of nonlinear friction force, and the effectiveness has been verified in the application of motion control on mechatronics system and robot manipulator.

The Proceedings of Mechanical Engineering Congress, Japan, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2013, _J241033-1-_J241033-4, 2013, For the patients with disabled lower limbs, the exercise of the upper body is necessary to keep them healthy. In order to help the patients to live independent life, a new method is proposed to control a human support robot by center of gravity (COG) of the upper body. Four force sensors are used to measure the COG distribution of the upper body. The Intention is calculated from the COG information by a direction vector algorithm. An intention strength parameter is introduced to avoid the intention judging error. Finally, an experiment is conducted to verify the algorithm.

Y. Wang; S.Y. Wang; Y. Jiang; R. Tan
Journal of System Design and Dynamics, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 7, 4, 472-487, 2013, Peer-reviwed, An excretion care support robot, which can reduce the burden of caregivers, has been developed for bedridden persons. Because the excretion care support robot needs to move between its stop position and the caregiving room, which typically requires navigating a narrow and complex route, the robot must precisely follow a predefined path to avoid colliding with obstacles or falling over. However, different floor conditions in different rooms cause a wide range of time-varying friction, which has a serious effect on the motion accuracy of the robot motion system. To address this issue, a digital acceleration controller is designed to enable the excretion care support robot to accurately follow the predefined path. The digital acceleration controller is a special control algorithm that compensates for friction and can be designed without a priori friction information. Simulations and experiments are conducted under different friction conditions and the results demonstrate that this control method can effectively deal with the friction problem. Therefore, the excretion care support robot can safely move to the user's side when needed.

JSDD, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, Vol.6, No.5, 740-753, 2012, Peer-reviwed, A cushion robot with omnidirectional wheels is developed to support in-room movement of the elderly. Because the cushion robot works in a narrow, complex surrounding, it must accurately follow the target direction to avoid repetitively switching drives and to guarantee user safety. However, the user seated on the cushion robot causes a load change and a shift of the center of gravity (COG) of the whole system, which decreases the path tracking precision. To address this issue, an adaptive controller is designed to enable the cushion robot to accurately follow the target direction. The adaptive law can estimate the load and the position of the COG shift on-line, and can control the system so that it accurately follows a reference path generated to reach the target. Simulations and experiments are executed under the no-load condition and the load condition. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate that this control scheme effectively deals with the load change and the COG shift. Therefore, the cushion robot is reliable and convenient for assisting in-room movement of the elderly.
English - Evaluation of Walking Difficulty Using Singular Value Analysis through Divided Time-Series Data
Jiang Yinlai; Hayashi Isao; Wang Shuoyu
Proceedings of the Fuzzy System Symposium, Japan Society for Fuzzy Theory and Intelligent Informatics, 28, 1105-1110, 2012, Walking difficulty often happens in times of disasters. Identification of the evacuees with walking difficulty will definitely lead to quick rescue and thus improve the efficiency of evacuation. A precise and convenient method is being developed to automatically analyze the evacuees' walking. In this paper, we propose a method for assessing walking difficulty using singular value analysis through divided time-series data (SVA-DTS). In order to verify the usefulness of the proposed method, three levels of walking difficulty in the lower limbs are simulated in an experiment by constraining the knee joint and ankle joint of the right leg. The accelerations of the middle of shanks and the back of the waist are measured. The results showed that the first singular values inferred from the acceleration data of the right shank significantly related to the increase of the constraint to the joints. The first singular values of the acceleration data of the shanks were suggested to be reliable criteria to evaluate walking difficulty. We visualize the first singular values in a 3D space to provide intuitive information about walking ability which can be used as a tool for identifying the evacuees with walking difficulty.

In this paper, we consider internal model as a function model identified from observed data, and propose a model to extract the characteristic of human movement with singular value decomposition from the time-series data of various sensors. We call the knowledge acquired by the internal model embodied knowledge. In particular, we categorized gesture motions by two kinds of models with the indexes of similarity and estimation using left singular vectors. In addition, the ambulation movement is distinguished by hyperplane of three-dimension constructed by singular value. Finally we discussed characteristic and significance of the movement analysis using singular value decomposition proposed in this paper.

Proceedings of the Annual Conference of Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, 23, 313-316, 2010, An omni-directional walker, which is able to realize diverse motion groups, has been developed for walking rehabilitation. In a previous study, an adaptive control algorithm was developed to deal with the center of gravity shift and the load changes caused by the users. However, the control parameters in the nonlinear adaptive control law were manually adjusted, which led to lower accuracy. In this paper, a neural network for automatically adjustment of the adaptive control parameters is proposed. According to the rehabilitation program designed by the physical therapists, we simulate the walker's movement along a linear path. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the parameter optimization using neural network.

Proceedings of the Annual Conference of Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, 23, 279-282, 2010, Walking rehabilitation machines have drawn great attentions with more and more people suffering from walking disabilities in an aging society. However, most of the developed walking rehabilitation machines aim at enhancing muscle strength, neglecting the recovery of the neural system. 58% of walking disabilities are caused by problems in the neural system. Therefore, we propose a rehabilitation system which includes both muscle strength enhancement by a walking rehabilitation machine and neurological rehabilitation by imaginary walking. In this paper we compared the activation in motor area of the brain during real walking and imaginary walking by means of fNIRS (functional Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy). Two subjects participated in the experiment. During imaginary walking, the subjects were instructed to imagine that they were walking with the same pace to a person in the video being shown to the subjects. As a result, the concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin in motor area during imaginary walking was higher than that during real walking in both of the subjects. This was because that it was not necessary to pay attention to the movements of the legs and feet during normal walking on the plain road without any obstacles, while movement planning was required when the subjects imagined their walking in the same way to another person. The experiment result indicated that it is possible to quicken walking rehabilitation by imaginary walking.
English - 10A-E-3 Directional Intention Identification Based on the Force Interaction between an Omni-directional Walker and a Human(Room E International session)
JIANG Yinlai; WANG Shuoyu; ISHIDA Kenji; ANDO Takeshi; FUJIE Masakatsu G.
Proceedings of the Annual Conference of Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, Biomedical Fuzzy Systems Association, 23, 309-312, 2010, Walking support machines are strongly desired with more and more people suffering from walking disabilities in aging society. In previous studies, we have developed an omni-directional walker (ODW) for both walking rehabilitation and walking support. In the case of walking support, it is necessary for the ODW to know which direction its user is intending to go in order to support the user to reach the goal. In this paper, a novel interface is proposed to recognize a user's directional intention according to the force interaction between the user and the ODW. We conducted an experiment to study the relationship between the resultant forearm pressure and the direction intention. The experiment results showed that although there were significant individual differences in forearm pressures, it was possible to reason directional intentions from the forearm pressures. The relationship between forearm pressures and directional intentions was extracted as fuzzy rules. Since the fuzzy rules were sparse, we adopted the distance-type fuzzy reasoning method to develop an algorithm for directional intention. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm was verified by experiments, which showed that reasoning results were consistent with the intended directions.

Using this system, we examined the quantitative relationship between the fragmentation of letters and their correct identification in six healthy young male subjects. The 26 letters (black, 72-point, MSP Gothic) were randomly displayed one by one on the screen of a personal computer: each letter appeared once per test. Each of the letters was presented within a square (128 × 128 pixels) against a white background for 200 ms. The fragmented letters were produced by randomly removing pixels from complete letters using three different modes of elimination: removal of single dots or small and large rectangles with random rotation. The complete and fragmented letters were evaluated with respect to the density of information provided by the pixels that constituted the letters according to information theory. There was a direct correlation between the percentage of pixels removed from the complete letters and the density of information about the removed pixels. The scores for the correct identification of fragmented letters with dot elimination remained at almost 100% correct identification regardless of the percentage of pixels removed. In contrast, the correct identification scores with the elimination of large rectangles decreased with the removal of 70%, 80%, 86%, 90%, and 92% of pixels. The correct identification scores for the elimination of small rectangles fell between the scores for the other elimination modes. These results suggest that the identification of fragmented letters could be related to the recognition of structures in which imaginary lines exist between closest pixels, within some limited distance between existing pixels. The evaluation of fragmented-letter identification using this system may be useful for quantifying the capability of visual interpolation.

Faced with the increasingly severe global aging population with fewer children, the research, development, and application of elderly-care robots are expected to provide some technical means to solve the problems of elderly care, disability and semi-disability nursing, and rehabilitation. Elderly-care robots involve biomechanics, computer science, automatic control, ethics, and other fields of knowledge, which is one of the most challenging and most concerned research fields of robotics. Unlike other robots, elderly-care robots work for the frail elderly. There is information exchange and energy exchange between people and robots, and the safe human-robot interaction methods are the research core and key technology. The states of the art of elderly-care robots and their various nursing modes and safe interaction methods are introduced and discussed in this paper. To conclude, considering the disparity between current elderly care robots and their anticipated objectives, we offer a comprehensive overview of the critical technologies and research trends that impact and enhance the feasibility and acceptance of elderly care robots. These areas encompass the collaborative assistance of diverse assistive robots, the establishment of a novel smart home care model for elderly individuals using sensor networks, the optimization of robot design for improved flexibility, and the enhancement of robot acceptability., Frontiers Media SA, 30 Nov. 2023, Frontiers in Neuroscience, 17, Peer-reviwed, Introduction scientific journal, 1662-453X - 特徴空間表示機能を用いたパターン識別制御型筋電義手の訓練手法の開発

Last, Humanoid robotic upper limbs including the robotic hand and robotic arm are widely studied as the important parts of a humanoid robot. A robotic upper limb with light weight and high output can perform more tasks. The drive system is one of the main factors affecting the weight and output of the robotic upper limb, and therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the effects of the different drive methods on the overall structure. In this paper, we first introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the main drive methods such as tendon, gear, link, fluid (hydraulic and pneumatic), belt, chain, and screw drives. The design of the drive system is an essential factor to allow the humanoid robotic upper limb to exhibit the structural features and functions of the human upper limb. Therefore, the specific applications of each drive method on the humanoid robotic limbs are illustrated and briefly analyzed. Meanwhile, we compared the differences in the weight and payload (or grasping force) of the robotic hands and robotic arms with different drive methods. The results showed that the tendon drive system is easier to achieve light weight due to its simple structure, while the gear drive system can achieve a larger torque ratio, which results in a larger output torque. Further, the weight of the actuator accounts for a larger proportion of the total weight, and a reasonable external placement of the actuator is also beneficial to achieve light weight., American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Jan. 2021, Cyborg and Bionic Systems, 2021, 2692-7632 - ワイヤ干渉駆動とそのモジュール化設計

立位での歩行訓練が困難な歩行機能障害者の歩行訓練のために，座位での訓練が可能な座位歩行訓練機を開発している．現在，訓練機の移動時に訓練機が理想経路から外れるという問題が生じており，原因として移動時に訓練者の重心が移動する事により全体の重心が想定される位置からずれる事が考えられる．そこで本研究では，重心のずれを考慮した座位歩行訓練機のモデリングを行った後，PID制御法を用いて重心のずれがある場合の経路追従誤差の抑制効果について明らかにする．, 自動制御連合講演会, Nov. 2010, Proceedings of the Japan Joint Automatic Control Conference, 53, 0, 154-154, Japanese, 130005025640 - Knowledge of cerebral blood flow change for development of Brain-Computer Interface during the silent reading

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is an interface by which the human can directly operate the machinery using brain activity signals measured noninvasively. In this study, a BCI is developed based on the brain bloodstream change measured by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS). So far we have processed the brain bloodstream changes during silent reading by the distance-type fuzzy reasoning method to get the BCI control signals. However, the fuzzy rules could not completely reflect the features of NIRS signals, which reduced the recognition ratio. Therefore, we analyze the signal characteristics of cerebral blood flow during silent reading in order to obtain more proper fuzzy rules. We measure the cerebral blood flow changes on both sides of the prefrontal cortex during silent reading task 4 times a week for 4 weeks and extract the peculiar cerebral blood flow change patterns as knowledge for reasoning., 日本知能情報ファジィ学会, Sep. 2010, Proceedings of the Fuzzy System Symposium, 26, 0, 298-298, Japanese, 130005035557 - Directional intention identification by force information for running control of a mobility support robot

歩行障害患者の歩行訓練のためには，まだベッドに横になっている状態からの訓練が重要であり，さらに運動制御を行う脳についても同様に訓練を行うことが重要であると考えられる．しかも，後遺症を残さないためにはなるべく早く訓練することが望ましい．そこで本研究では歩行イメージによる回復初期の歩行訓練法を開発するために近赤外線分光法を用いて歩行運動想起時及び実歩行時の脳活動を計測し，両者の比較から歩行訓練に利用可能な脳活動の情報の抽出を試みる．, 自動制御連合講演会, 2010, Proceedings of the Japan Joint Automatic Control Conference, 53, 0, 157-157, Japanese, 130005025643 - Directional Control with Arm Load for an Omni-directional Walker

Apr. 2018 - Mar. 2023 - Complementary multimodal biosiginal measurement and analysis for prosthetic hand control
Jiang Yinlai
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), The University of Electro-Communications, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Surface electromyography (sEMG) has been widely investigated as a biological signal from which motion intentions can be recognized to control prosthetic hands. The availability and quality of sEMG can limit the usability and intuitiveness of advanced prosthetic hands that can restore most necessary hand movements. This study introduces force myography (FMG) as a supplementary signal and develops a hybrid sensor to measure sEMG and FMG signals simultaneously. Furthermore, a layer-fusion convolutional neural network (CNN) was proposed to analyze the sEMG and FMG signals. The recognition results of hand motion showed a significantly improved classification accuracy (CA) of the hybrid sEMG and FMG with respect to individual modality due to the rubustness of FMG. The FMG-assisted sEMG sensing approach can effectively offer great potential in the clinical application of sophisticated prosthetic hands without increasing burden to the user., 19K12877

Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Exploratory Research, Kochi University of Technology, Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Exploratory Research, Coinvestigator, To build a robot that can care for bedridden disabled people, who cannot express their intentions in language or letters, we have developed Fuzzy_BCI. The Fuzzy_BCI system uses a minimally invasive brain measurement device that does not restrain the body or head, meanwhile, it can recognize vague intentions such as "I want to drink cold water" or "Lower the temperature setting of the air conditioner because it is hot". Specifically, the somatosensory cortex and somatosensory joint cortex were measured considering physiologically vague concepts (e.g., “hot”, “warm”, and “painful”). Also, a relationship was found between room temperature changes and hemoglobin concentration changes. In addition, regarding the relationship between local temperature sensation and heart movement, useful results were obtained by comparing measurement results of frontal lobe near the primary motor cortex and somatosensory cortex with the results of the Profile of Mood States 2nd Edition (POMS2) test., 16K12503
Apr. 2016 - Mar. 2020 - Modeling of human multi-muscle control system based on voluntary activation and application for myo-electric upper limb prosthetics
Togo Shunta; Imamizu Hiroshi; Yokoi Hiroshi; Jiang Yinlai
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, The University of Electro-Communications, Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), In this study, we aimed to model a mechanism of voluntary control of human multi-muscle, and apply it for controlling EMG shoulder disarticulation prosthesis. First, a notion of voluntary control was introduced to the framework of muscle synergy analysis. Then, our experiments demonstrated that voluntarily activatable muscle synergies could be extracted by using an appropriate index. It was also suggested that the muscle synergy is not a minimum unit of voluntary muscle control. Moreover, we applied the notion of the synergy freezing degrees of freedom to the EMG shoulder disarticulation prosthesis system so as to control its robot-arm movements by low degrees of freedom input. As a result, both-shoulder amputee user could use our developed EMG shoulder disarticulation prosthesis to pick an object and place on it. Above results showed the usability of our proposed notion “humanize-robotics.”, 17K17724
01 Apr. 2017 - 31 Mar. 2019 - An Adaptable sEMG Measurement Method for Control of Welfare Machines
JIANG YINLAI
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), The University of Electro-Communications, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), sEMG (Surface Electromyography) is the electric activity of groups of muscles measured with electrodes on the skin surface. Since it reflects motion intentions, sEMG has been studied as a signal to control welfare machines. This study investigated the electrodes, measurement method, and selection of multi-channel sEMG signals. Soft and wearable sEMG electrodes were developed with conductive polymers and conductive silicon. The relation between bioelectric characteristics and the quality of sEMG was elucidated. And a multi-channel sEMG measurement system was developed and validated with healthy subjects and amputees., 16K01539

This study developed conductive silicon by mixing silicon with aggregative carbon black. The conductive silicon was applied to metallic non-woven fabric to create materials for the electrodes. Since the electrodes are supposed to be used between the skin and the socket, the influence of force to the quality of the EMG signal was investigated. The electrodes were encapsulated in insulating silicon to be applicable to circumstances with sweat or water. Furthermore, a pressure-sensitive sensor was developed with the conductive silicon, which can be integrated into the prosthetic hand to provide sensory function., 16K12951

Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), The interpolation and reconstruction of fragmented visual information during the cognitive process is a very important feature of visual cognition. To elucidate the mechanism of visual interpolation, this study evaluated the importance of residual information for the fragmented-letter recognition, and proposed a least-distance connection model. The preference of connecting scattered information was also investigated. An fMRI experiment was conducted to locate the brain areas involved in the visual interpolation. A simple measurement system using touch panels or tablets was developed to easily measure the recognition ability for fragmented letters. The relation between visual interpolation ability and aging was also studied to explore the possibility of early detection of cognitive impairments., 25730097

However, most of the robots can perform a specific daily task well only. In the daily the life of lower-limb handicapped and the elderly, more than one task of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) are necessary. Therefore, it’s inevitable to utilize more than one robot in their living environments. In this study, a Multi-Function Type Independent Life Support Robot is proposed for serving the lower limb handicapped and the elderly with legs weakness in daily life. For the development of this robot, 3 specific research contents are contained: 1, safeguard technology for human, 2, human task intention reasoning method, 3, development of robotics system integration method. Based on these 3 specific contents, the Multi-Function Independent Life Support Robot was completed in our laboratory., 24300203

Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Kochi University of Technology, Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), The visual recognition system has a capability, called visual interpolation ability, to identify objects that exist in part behind some bodies or are seen through apertures in something. We have studied the computational model and the neural basis of the visual interpolation ability using fragmented letters. A least-distance connection model, which hypothesize that the fragmented visual information is recognized based on the distances between the information, was proposed and validated. Functional imaging of the brain showed that that fragmented-letter identification was accompanied by greater activation in the bilateral dorsolateral, inferior, and lateral frontal cortices, compared to complete-letter identification. Experimental results illustrated that the bilateral extent of leukoaraiosis, however small it may be, was significantly associated with the decline of the visual interpolation ability. The results showed the useful possibility of our method for early detection of cognitive impairment., 23700316
