{"title":"Is random tracking more difficult in two dimensions than one dimension?","authors":"R. Jones, R. W. Watson","doi":"10.1109/IEMBS.1998.744777","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IEMBS.1998.744777","url":null,"abstract":"There is conflicting evidence in the literature as to whether sensory-motor performance degrades on going from a 1D to a 2D task. We undertook a study to investigate more closely the fundamental questions: Is random tracking more difficult in 2D than in 1D? If so, is the increased difficulty due to the increased velocity or the increased dimensionality of the 2D task? The study involved 16 normal subjects tracking 2D random targets and two orthogonal 1D equivalents using a floor-mounted joystick. To investigate the speed versus dimensionality question, a version of the standard 2D task was devised which used a scaled target signal with the same average velocity and displacement as the 1D task. Tracking performance (mean absolute error) was found to degrade by 41% (p<.001) on going from the 1D to the scaled 2D task, This demonstrates that tracking is indeed more demanding in 2D than 1D and that this can be unequivocally attributed to the increased dimensionality of the 2D task. Most of the poorer performance on the 2D task could be attributed to an extra 59 ms in tracking delay and is considered most likely due to the extra degree of freedom reducing the ability of the sensory-motor system to offset inherent delays in the system by using prediction.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

The method was applied in discontinuous adventitious lung sounds and explosive bowel sounds drawn from BS databases, after de-noising. Their non-Gaussianity due to their strong impulsiveness was confirmed and S/spl alpha/S-based model was used for autoregressive (AR) estimation of their source signal. Via the parameters of S/spl alpha/S (a, /spl alpha/ and /spl gamma/) the effect of the transmission path on the impulsive nature of the source was described. Values of the covariation coefficient /spl lambda//sub XY/ confirmed a correlation of squawks and fine crackles in their production mechanism.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

This signal is named the electroenterogram, and it is the result of a slow wave (SW) and a spike burst (SE). Only the latter represents intestinal pressure, but SW gives the maximum rhythm of the contractions. Three joint records of electroenterogram and intestinal wall contractions were carried out (duodenum, angle of Treitz and jejunum) on two dogs. Each record is 4 hours long. Six t-f distributions were calculated over a 1 minute period of the electroenterogram: Wigner-Ville (WVD), Choi-Williams (CWD), Zhao-Atlas-Marks (ZAM), and 3 spectrograms with different window lengths. CWD is the best distribution for graphical displaying in order to recognise the electrical signal of the small bowel. However, spectrograms are better than CWD for obtaining the time marginal and the local mean frequency. Both temporal functions are highly correlated with intestinal pressure.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Dorsiflexion peaks in the averaged ankle angular velocity were accompanied by peaks in the averaged rectified soleus EMG at a delay of approximately 50 ms. The coherence and transfer functions relating the raw angular velocity and EMG signals also indicated this stretch reflex contribution.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Surface EMG electrodes and video cameras were used to record muscular activity and spinal kinematics. In comparison with the normal group, subjects with LBP showed different muscle activation profiles.

Single fine-tipped (200 to 400 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ surface area) activated iridium microelectrode was implanted in the left side of the L6 spinal cord. Large extension torque was produced by microstimulation in the ventral horn and small flexion torque was produced by microstimulation in the dorsal horn. The extensor EMG was much larger than the flexor EMG when large extension torque was produced. The flexor EMG was just slightly larger than the extensor EMG and both were small when small flexion torque was produced. When extension torque was generated, the extensor EMG increased rapidly with increasing stimulus intensity while the flexor EMG remained at almost the same level. These results showed that the L6 spinal cord of the cat is more effective in generating extension torque than flexion torque and that hindlimb flexor and extensor EMG is correlated with torque. Microstimulation of the spinal cord is a potential method to restore the low limb function for patients with spinal cord injuries.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

The objective of this study was to find early signs of VT/VF in patients with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) to enable a prediction for an improved antiarrhythmic therapy. Therefore, we studied the interbeat intervals of 17 chronic heart failure ICD patients with and without (control) VT/VF event. To detect typical signs of an immediately following malignant arrhythmia we calculated HRV parameters from time and frequency domain as well as the averaged finite time Lyapunov exponent and the Shannon entropy of the finite time Lyapunov exponents distribution. The results of this study show that neither the time nor the frequency domain parameters show significant differences between the VT/VF and the control time series. However, the averaged finite time Lyapunov exponents and the Shannon entropy discriminate significantly both groups (p<0.01 resp. p<0.04). These findings could be of importance in algorithms for next generation ICDs to improve the diagnostics and therapy of VT/VF.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Neural networks with a three-layer structure can be used to generate control replacing the manual control to deliver the stimulation during walking. Sensors which have been used to provide information for the controller range in complexity from simple heel or hand switches to accelerometers. There are three basic problems connected with the selection of sensors: sensor types, number of sensors and the optimum location on the limb. Kinematic signals can be simulated from 3D data collected from a motion analysis system. These 'virtual' sensors (goniometers, gyroscopes, inclinometers and accelerometers) showed a good correlation with their physical counterparts. The aim of this study was to use neural network to generate optimum FES controllers. 32 sensors ('virtual' kinematic sensors and physical sensors recording crutch forces and foot floor contacts) were used to find an optimum sensor set. The results have shown that neural networks with a small optimum sensor set could produce a robust controller with a higher degree of accuracy than a traditional heel switch controller. After few months, the controller still maintained a high accuracy.","PeriodicalId":156581,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.
