Event-related causality in stereo-EEG discriminates syntactic processing of noun phrases and verb phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Objective. Syntax involves complex neurobiological mechanisms, which are difficult to disentangle for multiple reasons. Using a protocol able to separate syntactic information from sound information we investigated the neural causal connections evoked by t ...

Stimulus evoked causality estimation in stereo-EEG

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Objective. Stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) has recently gained importance in analyzing brain functions. Its high temporal resolution and spatial specificity make it a powerful tool to investigate the strength, direction, and spectral content of brain ...

High gamma response tracks different syntactic structures in homophonous phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Syntax is a species-specific component of human language combining a finite set of words in a potentially infinite number of sentences. Since words are by definition expressed by sound, factoring out syntactic information is normally impossible. Here, we c ...

Bilateral cortical representation of tactile roughness

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Roughness is the most important feature for texture discrimination. Here we investigate how the bilateral cortical representation of touch is modulated by tactile roughness by analyzing the neural responses elicited by stimuli with various coarseness level ...

Characterization of multi-channel intraneural stimulation in transradial amputees

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Fiorenzo Artoni, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Maria Petrini, Pablo Garcia del Valle, Edoardo D'Anna

Although peripheral nerve stimulation using intraneural electrodes has been shown to be an effective and reliable solution to restore sensory feedback after hand loss, there have been no reports on the characterization of multi-channel stimulation. A deepe ...

Discrimination of Walking and Standing from Entropy of EEG Signals and Common Spatial Patterns

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Recently, the complexity analysis of brain activity has shown the possibility to provide additional information to discriminate between rest and motion in real-time. In this work, we propose a novel entropy-based machine learning method to classify between ...

Applying dimension reduction to EEG data by Principal Component Analysis reduces the quality of its subsequent Independent Component decomposition

Fiorenzo Artoni

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) has proven to be an effective data driven method for analyzing EEG data, separating signals from temporally and functionally independent brain and non-brain source processes and thereby increasing their definition. Dime ...

Hybrid Human-Machine Interface for Gait Decoding Through Bayesian Fusion of EEG and EMG Classifiers

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni, Luca Tonin

Despite the advances in the field of brain computer interfaces (BCI), the use of the sole electroencephalography (EEG) signal to control walking rehabilitation devices is currently not viable in clinical settings, due to its unreliability. Hybrid interface ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the Cortical Responses Induced by a Prolonged Tactile Stimulation of the Human Fingertips

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

The sense of touch is fundamental for daily behavior. The aim of this work is to understand the neural network responsible for touch processing during a prolonged tactile stimulation, delivered by means of a mechatronic platform by passively sliding a ridg ...

Spatially selective activation of the visual cortex via intraneural stimulation of the optic nerve

Silvestro Micera, Diego Ghezzi, Fiorenzo Artoni, Paola Vagni, Vivien Gaillet

Retinal prostheses can restore a functional form of vision in patients affected by dystrophies of the outer retinal layer. Beyond clinical utility, prostheses for the stimulation of the optic nerve, the visual thalamus or the visual cortex could also serve ...

Using Low-Power, Low-Cost IoT Processors in Clinical Biosignal Research: an In-depth Feasibility Check

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Research on biosignal (ExG) analysis is usually performed with expensive systems requiring connection with external computers for data processing. Consumer-grade low-cost wearable systems for bio-potential monitoring and embedded processing have been prese ...

Decoding electroencephalographic responses to visual stimuli compatible with electrical stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Laura Toni, Fiorenzo Artoni, Simone Romeni

Electrical stimulation of the visual nervous system could improve the quality of life of patients affected by acquired blindness by restoring some visual sensations, but requires careful optimization of stimulation parameters to produce useful perceptions. ...

Deep Learning with Convolutional Neural Network for Proportional Control of Finger Movements from surface EMG Recordings

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni, Vincent Alexandre Mendez, Leonardo Pollina

The control of robotic prosthetic hands (RPHs) for upper limb amputees is far from optimal. Simultaneous and proportional finger control of a RPH based on EMG signals is still challenging. Based on EMG and kinematics recordings of subjects following a pre- ...

Shared human–robot proportional control of a dexterous myoelectric prosthesis

Saurav Aryan, Aude Billard, Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni, Francesco Maria Petrini, Edoardo D'Anna, Nicolas Sommer, Vincent Alexandre Mendez, Emanuele Formento, Katie Zhi Zhuang

Myoelectric prostheses allow users to recover lost functionality by controlling a robotic device with their remaining muscle activity. Such commercial devices can give users a high level of autonomy, but still do not approach the dexterity of the intact hu ...

Heart rate variability at bedtime predicts subsequent sleep features

Fiorenzo Artoni

Getting enough sleep during the night is important for preventing adverse short- and long-term health outcomes. The sympathetic-parasympathetic autonomic balance, characteristics of the pre-bed time resting period, correlates with sleep efficiency. We inve ...
