Hommage à André Motte

Hommage to reactive psychosis.

When looking back in the history of psychiatry, the concept of reactivity had very variable impact on ethiological considerations. If classification of mental disorders is taken as a proxy, it seems that this impact is presently at the lowest that it has been in the last hundred years. The author gives a short historical overview of concept of reactive psychosis, followed by a description of th...

A robust control strategy for closed-loop control of hindlimb movement induced by epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord is developed here. The method is based on adaptive fuzzy neuro-sliding mode control (AFNSMC). An AFNSMC is designed for multi-joint extension movement as well as flexion movement. The multi-joint flexion and extension movements are generated by stimulating t...

IFESS 2016 – La Grande Motte, France

The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of electrotactile feedback in closed loop training of force control during the routine grasping task. The feedback was provided using an array electrode and a simple six-level spatial coding, and the experiment was conducted in three amputee subjects. The psychometric tests confirmed that the subjects could perceive and interpret the elec...

A conjecture of Yves André . ∗

The introduction to [2] (and references contained therein) contains a comprehensive exposition of terminology and notations relative to this conjecture. Since we use the same terminology and notations, we do not reproduce them here. The introduction to [2] also contains an exposition of results on this conjecture obtained before the article [3] came out. In this article we prove the following t...
