Title: A Learning Approach to Understand How Spinal Cord Learns Multiple Behaviors Abstract: The spinal cord plays a crucial role in the control of human locomotion, generating motor patterns and coordinating reflex responses to sensory signals. Although this spinal control is traditionally viewed as a simple relay system, more recent neurophysiological evidence points to a [...]

Title: Improving Robotic Ultrasound AI Using Optical Flow Abstract:  Ultrasound is an important modality for medical intervention such as vascular access because it is safe, portable, and low-cost. However, ultrasound scanning requires trained sonographers who are scarce, and it can be challenging to perform ultrasound examinations in disaster or battlefield scenarios. This motivates us to automate [...]
