Automatic recognition of alertness and drowsiness from EEG by an artificial neural network

A Vuckovic, V Radivojevic, ACN Chen… - Medical engineering & …, 2002 - Elsevier
We present a novel method for classifying alert vs drowsy states from 1 s long sequences of
full spectrum EEG recordings in an arbitrary subject. This novel method uses time series of …

Using a motor imagery questionnaire to estimate the performance of a brain–computer interface based on object oriented motor imagery

A Vuckovic, BA Osuagwu - Clinical Neurophysiology, 2013 - Elsevier
Objectives The primary objective was to test whether motor imagery (MI) questionnaires can
be used to detect BCI ‘illiterate’. The second objective was to test how different MI paradigms…

Hybrid brain-computer interface and functional electrical stimulation for sensorimotor training in participants with tetraplegia: a proof-of-concept study

A Vuckovic, L Wallace, DB Allan - Journal of neurologic physical …, 2015 - journals.lww.com
Background and Purpose: Impaired hand function decreases quality of life in persons with
tetraplegia. We tested functional electrical stimulation (FES) controlled by a hybrid brain-…

[HTML][HTML] Dynamic oscillatory signatures of central neuropathic pain in spinal cord injury

A Vuckovic, MA Hasan, M Fraser, BA Conway… - The journal of pain, 2014 - Elsevier
Central neuropathic pain (CNP) is believed to be accompanied by increased activation of
the sensorimotor cortex. Our knowledge of this interaction is based mainly on functional …

Delta band contribution in cue based single trial classification of real and imaginary wrist movements

A Vuckovic, F Sepulveda - Medical & biological engineering & computing, 2008 - Springer
The aim of this study was to classify different movements about the right wrist. Four different
movements were performed: extension, flexion, pronation and supination. Two-class single …

Rehabilitation of hand in subacute tetraplegic patients based on brain computer interface and functional electrical stimulation: a randomised pilot study

…, L Wallace, M Fraser, A Vuckovic - Journal of neural …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Objective. To compare neurological and functional outcomes between two groups of hospitalised
patients with subacute tetraplegia. Approach. Seven patients received 20 sessions of …

[HTML][HTML] Similarities between explicit and implicit motor imagery in mental rotation of hands: An EEG study

BA Osuagwu, A Vuckovic - Neuropsychologia, 2014 - Elsevier
Chronometric and imaging studies have shown that motor imagery is used implicitly during
mental rotation tasks in which subjects for example judge the laterality of human hand …

[HTML][HTML] The mechanism of neurofeedback training for treatment of central neuropathic pain in paraplegia: a pilot study

…, M Fraser, BA Conway, DB Allan, A Vuckovic - BMC neurology, 2015 - Springer
Background Central neuropathic pain has a prevalence of 40 % in patients with spinal cord
injury. Electroencephalography (EEG) studies showed that this type of pain has identifiable …

[HTML][HTML] Influence of motor imagination on cortical activation during functional electrical stimulation

C Reynolds, BA Osuagwu, A Vuckovic - Clinical Neurophysiology, 2015 - Elsevier
Objective Motor imagination (MI) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) can activate the
sensory-motor cortex through efferent and afferent pathways respectively. Motor imagination …

A comparative study of three techniques for diameter selective fiber activation in the vagal nerve: anodal block, depolarizing prepulses and slowly rising pulses

A Vuckovic, M Tosato, JJ Struijk - Journal of neural engineering, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
The paper shows selective smaller fiber activation in the left and right vagal nerve in in vivo
experiments in pigs using three different techniques: anodal block, depolarizing prepulses …
