The application of Hybrid Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) for post-stroke hand motor rehabilitation requires the investigation of new electromyographic (EMG) features, potentially able to identify pathological synergies to be discouraged. Inter-muscular coherence (IMC) is gaining attention as a...

Hybrid Brain-Computer Interfaces (hBCIs) for upper limb motor rehabilitation after stroke should pursue the reinforcement of “more normal” brain and muscular activity. We propose cortico-muscular coherence (CMC) as control feature for a novel rehabilitative hBCI. CMC is a measure of synchronization...

The functional connectivity between cortex and muscle during motor tasks can change after stroke. Motor rehabilitation aims at restoring it, either by re-establishing “close-to-normal” connectivity or supporting the development of alternative pathways. With the ultimate aim to design a...

The patient-clinician relationship is known to significantly affect the pain experience, as empathy, mutual trust and therapeutic alliance can significantly modulate pain perception and influence clinical therapy outcomes. The aim of the present study was to use an EEG hyperscanning setup to...

The framework of information dynamics allows the dissection of the information processed in a network of multiple interacting dynamical systems into meaningful elements of computation that quantify the information generated in a target system, stored in it, transferred to it from one or more source...

The framework of information dynamics allows to quantify different aspects of the statistical structure of multivariate processes reflecting the temporal dynamics of a complex network. The information transfer from one process to another can be quantified through Transfer Entropy, and under the...
