Deciphering the Geometry of Primary Motor Cortical Manifolds: Observations from Naturalistic Movements and Implications for Intracortical Brain-Computer Interfaces

Description:

Each neuron in the primary motor cortex (M1) is like a musician in an orchestra, contributing to a larger harmony under the constraint of a “neural manifold”—a geometric score describing the correlated signals produced by the neural musicians that drive movement. Despite the widespread recognition of the importance of M1...

On Adaptive Time-Constrained Macro X-Ray Fluorescence Scanning and Analysis of Works of Art

Description:

In the late 2000’s, scientific studies in cultural heritage saw a great advancement in macro X-ray fluorescence (XRF) imaging of paintings. These images are used to generate elemental distribution maps, which aid in identifying chemical elements and paint pig- ments as well as their locations throughout the layers of the...

Dimensionality Reduction for Prosthetic Hand Control

Description:

In this document, I demonstrate that: 1) Linear basis functions cannot outperform nonlinear ones to represent hand kinematics 2) Nonlinear autoencoders outperform PCA on the dimensionality reduction of hand kinematics, 3) Nonlinear autoencoders outperform PCA in human gait representation and recurrent nonlinear autoencoders can seamlessly express the temporal dynamics, 4)...

Advancing Computational Methods to Derive Insights from Real-world Health Data

Description:

In 2009, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH) promoted national use of electronic health records (EHR) in the US by giving incentives to providers who adopt ‘meaningful use’ of EHRs. As of 2017, nearly 86% of office-based physicians had adopted EHRs. EHRs have rich information...

Geometric deep learning in neuroimaging and human reward behavior

Description:

In recent years, machine learning on graphs (or networks) has gone from a niche topic with only a few active researchers worldwide, to a heavily invested field with novel use cases for dealing with relationships and/or interactions within complex systems in the natural and social sciences. Traditionally, choosing the right...

Cut-and-Shuffle Mixing On a Hemispherical Shell and a Line Segment

Description:

Mixing by cutting-and-shuffling (like that for a deck of cards or a Rubik's cube) is a paradigm that has not been studied in detail even though it can be applied in a variety of situations including the mixing of granular materials. Mathematically, cutting- and-shuffling is described by piecewise isometries (PWIs),...

Complex Exposures to Social Determinants of Health through Young Adulthood and Associations with Mid-life Cardiovascular Health and Events: The Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study

Description:

In the U.S., approximately 840,000 Americans die from cardiovascular disease (CVD) each year, and it is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The prevalence of CVD is on the rise and widespread disparities in CVD exist across economic, racial, and ethnic groups. In order to address the rising...
