HMI 2015 - Special Session on Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) in Rehabilitation Field

Nowadays, the assessment and management of both Cognitive and Motor-Function Rehabilitation require the early convergence of clinical and technical perspectives. Biomedical Data, such as Electro Encephalo Graphic (EEG), surface Electro Myo Graphic (sEMG) and Electro Cardio Graphic (ECG) signals, are used both to perform Rehabilitation Strategies as well as to evaluate the outcomes. Moreover, the availability of low cost devices able to provide Virtual/Augmented scenarious to the patients, motivated the development of Rehabilitation Protocols featuring immersive environments. This Special Session aims to solicit new approaches of Biomedical Data analysis and HMI application for Cognitive and Motor-Function Rehabilitation purposes. Topics for this session include but are not limited to:
Intelligent Systems for analysis of Biomedical Data
Human-Computer Interaction in Cognitive Rehabilitation
Human-Robot Interaction in Motor-Function Rehabilitation
Biomedical Data analysis in Rehabilitation
Brain Computer Interfaces
Virtual and Augmented Reality in Clinical Applications
