The field of brain-computer interfaces is poised to advance from the traditional goal of controlling prosthetic devices using brain signals to combining neural decoding and encoding within a single neuroprosthetic device. Such a device acts…
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) use decoding algorithms to control prosthetic devices based on brain signals for restoration of lost function. Computer-brain interfaces (CBIs), on the other hand, use encoding algorithms to transform…
Mental disorders may exhibit pathological brain rhythms and neurostimulation promises to alleviate of patients' symptoms by modifying these rhythms. Today, most neurostimulation schemes are open-loop, i.e. administer experimental…
Adaptive brain stimulation can treat neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease and post-stroke motor deficits by influencing abnormal neural activity. Because of patient heterogeneity, each patient requires a unique stimulation…
Neurostimulation technologies have seen a recent surge in interest from the neuroscience and controls communities alike due to their proven potential to treat conditions such as Parkinson's Disease, and depression. The provided stimulation…
The application of closed-loop approaches in systems neuroscience and therapeutic stimulation holds great promise for revolutionizing our understanding of the brain and for developing novel neuromodulation therapies to restore lost…
Computational neuroscience relies on large-scale dynamical-systems models of neurons, with a vast amount of offline, pre-simulation, tuned parameters, with models often tied to their brain simulators. These fixed parameters lead to stiff…
Mental disorders (MD) are among the top most demanding challenges in world-wide health. According to the World Health Organization, the burden of MDs continues to grow with significant impact on health and major social and human rights. A…
A significant and rising proportion of the global population suffer from non-communicable diseases, such as neurological disorders. Neurorehabilitation aims to restore function and independence of neurological patients through providing…
Objective: The aim of this study is to propose an adaptive scheme embedded into an open-source environment for the estimation of the neural activation extent during deep brain stimulation and to investigate the feasibility of approximating…
We propose a neural information processing system which is obtained by re-purposing the function of a biological neural circuit model, to govern simulated and real-world control tasks. Inspired by the structure of the nervous system of the…
For robot manipulation, both the controller and end-effector design are crucial. Soft grippers are generalizable by deforming to different geometries, but designing such a gripper and finding its grasp pose remains challenging. In this…
We present a neural network approach for closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS). We cast the problem of finding an optimal neurostimulation strategy as a control problem. In this setting, control policies aim to optimize therapeutic…
Objective: Closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) may improve current clinical DBS treatment for neurological movement disorders, but control algorithms may perform differently across patients. New metrics are needed for comparing and…
The goal of neural-symbolic computation is to integrate the connectionist and symbolist paradigms. Prior methods learn the neural-symbolic models using reinforcement learning (RL) approaches, which ignore the error propagation in the…
Closed-loop brain stimulation refers to capturing neurophysiological measures such as electroencephalography (EEG), quickly identifying neural events of interest, and producing auditory, magnetic or electrical stimulation so as to interact…
We present a novel methodology for control of neural circuits based on deep reinforcement learning. Our approach achieves aimed behavior by generating external continuous stimulation of existing neural circuits (neuromodulation control) or…
This paper aims to develop a new human-machine interface to improve rehabilitation performance from the perspective of both the user (patient) and the machine (robot) by introducing the co-adaption techniques via model-based reinforcement…
Neuroprosthetic brain-computer interfaces function via an algorithm which decodes neural activity of the user into movements of an end effector, such as a cursor or robotic arm. In practice, the decoder is often learned by updating its…
Animals achieve sophisticated behavioral control through dynamic coupling of the brain, body, and environment. Accordingly, the co-design approach, in which both the controllers and the physical properties are optimized simultaneously, has…
