Analysis and passive control of a four-bar linkage for the rehabilitation of upper-limb motion
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2015)In the last two decades robotic rehabilitation research provided significant insight regarding the human-robot interaction, helped understand the process by which the impaired nervous system is retrained to better control ...

Atherosclerotic plaque motion analysis from ultrasound videos
(2006)In this paper, we describe a collection of algorithms that are used to provide motion trajectory estimates from atherosclerotic plaque ultrasound videos. Our approach is based on the use of four different optical flow ...

Crowds by example
(2007)We present an example-based crowd simulation technique. Most crowd simulation techniques assume that the behavior exhibited by each person in the crowd can be defined by a restricted set of rules. This assumption limits ...

Upper limb motion profile during small to medium time-limited reaching tasks in A VR based robotic training environment
(Affiliation: University of Cyprus, Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Xydas, E. G.University of Cyprus, Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, Cyprusemail: mep4ex1@ucy.ac.cy, 2008)In the area of rehabilitation robotics, many researchers have investigated the therapeutic effects of forces that are proportional to the difference of the user's hand trajectory with an optimum trajectory that is usually ...
