Multi-Task Learning is a learning paradigm that uses correlated tasks to improve performance generalization. A common way learn multiple through the hard parameter sharing approach, in which single architecture used share same subset of parameters, creating an inductive bias between them during training process. Due its simplicity, potential generalization, and reduce computational cost, it has...

Research on the relationship between attention and the control of posture and gait is a new and expanding area with studies on young adults revealing the role of cognitive factors in the control of balance during standing and walking. The use of dual task paradigms to examine the effect of age related changes in attentional requirements of balance control and age-related reductions in stability...

BACKGROUND Previous literature indicates that attentional resources are required for recovery of postural stability. Previous studies have also examined the effect of aging on the performance of a static postural task while a secondary cognitive task is being conducted. This study describes the effect of a cognitive task on the neuromuscular response characteristics underlying reactive balance ...

Human postural control, which relies on information from vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive inputs, degrades with aging, and falls are the leading cause of injury in older adults. In the last decade, functional neuroimaging studies have been performed in order to gain a greater understanding of the supraspinal control of balance and walking. It is known that active balancing involves cortic...

the aim of this study was to determine the effects of external attention (ea) and internal attention (ia) with & without motivational music training on dynamic balance task. the method was quasi-experimental and the sample involved 60 athletic maile who were volunteers to participate in this study. after pre-test, subjects were divided into 5 groups of 12 members randomly. groups were: ia with ...
