Background: This paper presents a study investigating the recognizability of multiple unilateral upper limb movements in stroke rehabilitation.
Methods: A functional magnetic experiment is employed to study motor execution (ME) and motor imagery (MI) of four movements for the unilateral upper limb: hand-grasping, hand-handling, arm-reaching, and wrist-twisting. The functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) images of ME and MI tasks are statistically analyzed to delineate the region of interest (ROI).
In building a practical and robust brain-computer interface (BCI), the classification of motor imagery (MI) from electroencephalography (EEG) across multiple days is a long-standing challenge due to the large variability of the EEG signals. We collected a large dataset of MI from 5 different days with 25 subjects, the first open-access dataset to address BCI issues across 5 different days with a large number of subjects. The dataset includes 5 session data from 5 different days (2-3 days apart) for each subject.

Multitasking motor imagery (MI) of the unilateral upper limb is potentially more valuable in stroke rehabilitation than the current conventional MI in both hands. In this paper, a novel experimental paradigm was designed to imagine two motions of unilateral upper limb, which is hand gripping and releasing, and elbow reciprocating left and right. During this experiment, the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals were collected from 10 subjects.

In this study, both one- and two-stage cold rolling with three intermediate annealing temperatures were employed to produce strip cast non-oriented silicon steel. The evolution of the microstructure and texture through the processing routes and its effect on magnetic properties were studied.
