However, the impact of gait analysis accuracy and precision on fall risk prediction remains unexplored. This study collected gait data from 95 older adults using instrumented footwear on an instrumented walkway which is recognized as a system with gold standards during the 6-minute walking test. Participants were classified into fallers and non-fallers based on retrospective fall history (falls in the 6 months prior to completing the experiment), prospective fall occurrence (falls in the subsequent 6 months after completing the experiment), and a combination of both. Gait parameters and their variability were estimated using three algorithms: the conventional foot displacement method and two support vector regression (SVR) techniques. These features were used to develop fall risk prediction models with four machine learning classifiers: logistic regression, decision tree, support vector machine, and artificial neural network. Our findings demonstrate that the accuracy and precision of gait analysis algorithms significantly influences the estimation of gait parameters and their variability, directly impacting fall risk prediction performance. Using a support vector classifier, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values for predicting retrospective falls, prospective falls, and either fall type increased from 0.79, 0.84, and 0.77 (conventional method) to 0.85, 0.89, and 0.83 (SVR).

Additionally, EMG-based motor-intent decoders are prone to performance degradation due to factors such as fatigue, electrode shifts, and varying acquisition conditions. To address these challenges, we propose a low-cost EMG sensor grid alongside an advanced decoding strategy named AdaptiveEdge. This adaptive model update strategy integrates offline training with real-time on-device parameter updates, facilitating seamless adaptation to diverse EMG disturbance scenarios. Our comprehensive experiments demonstrated significant accuracy improvements: AdaptiveEdge yielded 10.18% higher accuracy (88.66%) when both offline and on-device update were utilized compared to 78.48% without offline training. Furthermore, AdaptiveEdge not only enhances decoding accuracy but also optimizes memory usage and energy consumption, making it particularly suitable for on-device applications such as neuroprosthetics.

Additionally, we examined the relationship between head motion and other mobility metrics and established recommendations for implementing similar protocols for capturing future studies, including the minimum number of days required for reliable data collection.

Functional BHI has been estimated through a synthetic data generation model, separately modeling and quantifying ascending peripheral-to-central, and descending central-to-peripheral interaction in a time-resolved way. Results gathered from a cohort of 72 individuals indicate that depressive symptoms are associated with continuous efferent central-to-peripheral hyperactivity, particularly in neutral and negative valence conditioning, and afferent vagal-to-central hypoactivity. This hypoactivity seems to be specific to negative emotional processing. Moreover, the expected modulation of ascending interplay during emotional elicitation was detected in healthy controls only, whereas a descending central-to-peripheral modulation in response to emotional conditioning has been found associated to depressive symptomatology, for the first time.

To address the complexity of sensor deployment, we develop flexible high-density (HD) plantar pressure (PP) sensing insoles (48 units) that naturally integrate into regular shoes without external modules.

In this study, through resting electroencephalography analysis of 37 participants with chronic pain before, during, and after CA therapy, we investigated the electrophysiological modulations underlying the immediate analgesic effects of CA, with further comparison to an additional 13 participants with chronic pain undergoing sham acupuncture to exclude the potential placebo effects. Compared with sham acupuncture, CA demonstrated a significant immediate analgesic effect for chronic pain. Meanwhile, CA also triggered significant modulations on brain oscillations and their synchrony, which are distinct at different acupuncture procedures. Specifically, needle insertion of CA significantly reduced theta oscillations and enhanced gamma oscillations, suggesting a downregulation of hyperactive thalamic activity and an improvement of feedforward communication in pain processing; while after needle withdrawal, beta-band synchrony within the frontal lobe was decreased, indicating an improvement in the efficiency of feedback regulatory information transmission by reducing excessive connections. These modulations together improve the integration of nociceptive and contextual information in pain processing. Notably, the reduced theta oscillations were significantly correlated with the magnitude of pain relief and exerted a weak mediating effect in analgesia.
