    Communication Building with Brain Machine Interface

    Patients who have experienced acquired or genetic brain injury and are unable to speak or communicate clearly often seek augmented assistance to restore ease of conversation.

    We are changing and enhancing the uses and studies of brain machine interfacing BMI with patients who have limited language capability.

    Improving Arm Movement Using Wearable Device After Stroke

    Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is evaluating a new rehab therapy using wearable devices and a video game interface to improve arm movement after stroke. Participants use these wearable devices, called myoelectric computer interfaces, to play video games using their arm muscles.

    Speech synthesis from ECoG using densely connected 3D convolutional neural networks.

    OBJECTIVE: Direct synthesis of speech from neural signals could provide a fast and natural way of communication to people with neurological diseases. Invasively-measured brain activity (electrocorticography; ECoG) supplies the necessary temporal and spatial resolution to decode fast and complex processes such as speech production. A number of impressive advances in speech decoding using neural signals have been achieved in recent years, but the complex dynamics are still not fully understood…
