This study shows how individual vigor affects dyadic coordination in physical tasks, with slower partners influencing dyadic vigor and coordination patterns.

This paper develops a model-predictive game controller for contact robots to improve human-robot interaction by predicting human control and adapting to individual motor strategies.

This paper introduces a framework for calibrating and evaluating EMG-to-torque models, including a novel nonlinear model that improves accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency.

The paper tests whether movement and decision vigor are co-regulated or decoupled in a reward task, finding they are mostly decoupled and driven by distinct time-cost signals.

This paper introduces an EMG-based controller for robotic exoskeletons that intentionally leaves gravity torque uncompensated, improving muscle effort reduction and kinematic performance in arm movements.

This study uses an exoskeleton as biofeedback to guide participants toward ergonomic postures by inducing vibrations that encourage adaptation to reduce effort.

The paper shows that muscle co-contraction increases with environmental uncertainty to stabilize motor control when feedback is insufficient.

This study develops an experimental protocol to decouple force and impedance control in wrist movements using robotics and fMRI, showing distinct torque and stiffness responses to different force conditions.

This study investigates how time and effort tradeoff influences human movement vigor when interacting with a robotic exoskeleton, finding that time cost plays a pivotal role in determining movement vigor across a range of efforts.

This study tracks motor variability in infants from birth to walking onset, showing how variability arises from a small number of motor primitives early on and becomes more regular as more primitives develop.

The paper shows humans can quickly adapt motor patterns to different gravity conditions using a robotic exoskeleton.

This study compares modular control of walking between toddlers and adults, finding that adults use fewer, more consistent modules while toddlers require more modules to handle stride variability.

The paper demonstrates that gravity is used to optimise motor patterns by reducing muscle effort in human and monkey arm movements.

This study investigates the role of the dorsal striatum in effort sensitivity during motor tasks, finding that lesions affect movement kinematics without impairing procedural memory.

The paper evaluates a space-by-time decomposition method to assess modularity in muscle activity during whole-body reaching tasks, finding it effective for data approximation and task discrimination.
