Analysis of Human Gait Using Hybrid EEG-fNIRS-Based BCI System: A Review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Human gait is a complex activity that requires high coordination between the central nervous system, the limb, and the musculoskeletal system. More research is needed to understand the latter coordination's complexity in ... -
Assessment of Executive Function in Everyday Life—Psychometric Properties of the Norwegian Adaptation of the Children’s Cooking Task
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: There are few standardized measures available to assess executive function (EF) in a naturalistic setting for children. The Children’s Cooking Task (CCT) is a complex test that has been specifically developed ... -
CLET: Computation of Latencies in Event-related potential Triggers using photodiode on virtual reality apparatuses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction: Most spinal cord injuries (SCI) result in lower extremities paralysis, thus diminishing ambulation. Using brain-computer interfaces (BCI), patients may regain leg control using neural signals that actuate ... -
Design of a medical decision-supporting system for the identification of brain tumors using entropy-based thresholding and non-local texture features
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction: Brain tumors arise due to abnormal growth of cells at any brain location with uneven boundaries and shapes. Usually, they proliferate rapidly, and their size increases by approximately 1.4% a day, resulting ... -
Effects of facial symmetry and gaze direction on perception of social attributes: A study in experimental art history
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)This article explores the possibility of testing hypotheses about art production in the past by collecting data in the present. We call this enterprise “experimental art history”. Why did medieval artists prefer to paint ... -
Figurative language processing in atypical populations: The ASD perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-17)This paper is intended to provide a critical overview of experimental and clinical research documenting problems in figurative language processing in atypical populations with a focus on the Autistic Spectrum. Research ... -
Guidelines for assessment of gait and reference values for spatiotemporal gait parameters in older adults: The biomathics and canadian gait consortiums initiative
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Gait disorders, a highly prevalent condition in older adults, are associated with several adverse health consequences. Gait analysis allows qualitative and quantitative assessments of gait that improves the ... -
Navigating actions through the rodent parietal cortex
(Journal article, 2014)The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) participates in a manifold of cognitive functions, including visual attention, working memory, spatial processing, and movement planning. Given the vast interconnectivity of PPC with ... -
Neurophysiological and Emotional Influences on Team Communication and Metacognitive Cyber Situational Awareness During a Cyber Engineering Exercise
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: Cyber operations unfold at superhuman speeds where cyber defense decisions are based on human-to-human communication aiming to achieve a shared cyber situational awareness. The recently proposed Orient, Locate, ... -
Nondirective meditation activates brain areas associated with retrieval of memories and emotional processing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Nondirective meditation techniques are practiced with a relaxed focus of attention that permits spontaneously occurring thoughts, images, sensations, memories, and emotions to emerge and pass freely, without any expectation ... -
Nondirective meditation activates default mode network and areas associated with memory retrieval and emotional processing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Nondirective meditation techniques are practiced with a relaxed focus of attention that permits spontaneously occurring thoughts, images, sensations, memories, and emotions to emerge and pass freely, without any expectation ... -
Outcome uncertainty and brain activity aberrance in the insula and anterior cingulate cortex are associated with dysfunctional impulsivity in borderline personality disorder
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Uncertainty is recognized as an important component in distress, which may elicit impulsive behavior in patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD). These patients are known to be both impulsive and distress ... -
Secondary Outcomes of Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (eCBT) for Children and Adolescents with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a debilitating mental health condition usually presenting with a high degree of comorbid symptoms in the majority of cases. Although face-to-face cognitive-behavioral ... -
The role of the primary auditory cortex in the neural mechanism of auditory verbal hallucinations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) are a subjective experience of “hearing voices” in the absence of corresponding physical stimulation in the environment. The most remarkable feature of AVHs is their perceptual quality, ... -
Understanding Language Development in the Digital Age
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The digital age is changing our children’s lives and childhood dramatically. New technologies transform the way people interact with each other, the way stories are shared and distributed, and the way reality is presented ... -
Unleashing the potential of fNIRS with machine learning: classification of fine anatomical movements to empower future brain-computer interface
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In this study, we explore the potential of using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) signals in conjunction with modern machine-learning techniques to classify specific anatomical movements to increase the number ...
