20230165487 · 2023-06-01 ·

The abnormal data processing system is provided with: a storage unit for holding a multiple-subject DB in which data on multiple subjects are accumulated and individual-subject DB in which data on individual subjects are accumulated; an individual-subject DB divergence-degree calculation unit for calculating an individual-subject DB divergence degree which is the degree of divergence of the new data from the individual-subject DB; a multiple-subject DB divergence degree calculation unit for calculating a multiple-subject DB divergence degree which is the degree of divergence of the new data from the multiple-subject DB; and a composite divergence degree calculation unit for determining a composite divergence by compositing the individual-subject DB divergence degree and the multiple-subject DB divergence degree using the number of data instances in the individual-subject DB. The abnormal data processing system determines whether or not the new data is abnormal on the basis of the composite divergence degree.

System for motor rehabilitation of a paretic limb in stroke patients

A system or method for motor rehabilitation of a paretic limb including: a first plurality of sensors for registering brain neurosignals; a body-actuator; a hybrid brain machine interface for decoding brain neurosignals into movements of the body-actuator; a second plurality of EMG sensors couplable to the paretic limb for registering its EMG activity; a device for providing the patient with instructions relative to a series of exercises and/or tasks to be carried out with the paretic limb;
wherein upon carrying out a series of training sessions, each session comprising at least a set of such instructions, the hybrid brain machine interface is configured to switch between controlling the movements of the body-actuator based on the decoded brain neurosignals and a hybrid control of the movements of the body-actuator, when a significant level of decodable EMG activity has been registered, the hybrid control being an EMG-gated brain control.

20170296117 · 2017-10-19 ·

Methods for preventing or treating motor-related neurological conditions include using ocular light therapy in connection with a conventional therapy for a motor-related neurological condition, such as a drug regimen, to adjust levels of melatonin and/or dopamine in the body of a subject. The ocular light therapy may include elevated levels of blue-green light or green light (e.g., light within a wavelength range of 460 nm to 570 nm, 490 nm to 570 nm, about 520 nm to 570 nm, etc.). The ocular light therapy may also include reduced levels of amber, orange and/or red light. Methods for diagnosing motor-related neurological conditions include use of ocular light therapy to cause a subject to temporarily exhibit one or more symptoms of any motor-related neurological condition to which the subject is predisposed, or which the subject may already be experiencing. A temporary increase in such symptoms may be effected by ocular administration of light including increased amounts of amber, orange and/or red light.
