Abstract
This paper analyzes the involvement of the cerebral area during robotic assisted gait training on a treadmill (Lokomat) in the two cases of passive and active locomotion. Imaging of the brain activity in such a natural environment is allowed by Mobile Brain/Body Imaging (MoBI) approach with high-density electroencephalography (EEG), which we used to characterize the differences between conditions. A key feature for this research is the pre-processing of the brain signals, which are recorded in a noisy and artefactual environment. For this reason, we analyzed the efficiency of Artifact Subspace Reconstruction (ASR) as cleaning method. We employed EEG, electromyography (EMG) and force-measuring treadmill to record brain and body signals from 5 healthy subjects walking with Lokomat.
First, the choosing of the setting of the parameters in ASR is defined based on analysis over 11 healthy subjects, who are asked to walk on a steady-speed treadmill without any robotic orthosis
