Facial neuromuscular retraining has been found to be effective in diminishing the effects of synkinesia and improving voluntary movement. In 1982, Balliet and colleagues described a clinical program for facial nerve retraining that included mirror exercises, electromyography (EMG) biofeedback, and personalized home exercise programs for patients more than 2 years after facial nerve injury. Case...

BACKGROUND Focal dystonia in musicians (MD) is a task-specific movement disorder with a loss of voluntary motor control during instrumental playing. Defective inhibition on different levels of the central nervous system is involved in the pathophysiology. Sensorimotor retraining is a therapeutic approach to MD and aims to establish non-dystonic movements. Transcranial direct current stimulation...

Traditional classification algorithms assume that training and test data come from similar distributions. This assumption is violated in adversarial settings, where malicious actors modify instances to evade detection. A number of custom methods have been developed for both adversarial evasion attacks and robust learning. We propose the first systematic and general-purpose retraining framework ...

objectives: investigating the effect of endurance training program onthe gait pattern of non-active elderly people. methods & materials: this study has been done by a semi-experience method with 23 old men and women by the average and standard deviation of 70/50±6/9 years old (n=14 people of exercise group, n=9 people of control group). the exercise group took part in this program for eight wee...

gait contains important information about the status of the human body and physiological signs. in many medical applications, it isimportant to monitor and accurately analyze the gait of the patient. since walking shows the reproducibility signs in several phases,separating these phases can be used for the gait analysis. in this study, a method based on image processing for extracting phases of...
