Description:
The proposed system is a system for assistance in interfacing between humans and computers for subjects with motor disabilities. Patients with neurodegenerative diseases (such as multiple sclerosis and ALS) or with injury (caused by trauma, ischemia or tumors) to the first or second motor neuron, suffering from paralysis or paresis, commonly use human-computer interfaces to interact with a computer and perform preset functions. The goal is to assist these patients in human-computer interaction facilitating the use of graphical interfaces.
While using the interface, the system calculates a prediction of what action the patient wants actually undertake and consequently assist him in his selection. The system is based on model predictive control methodologies supported by machine learning techniques for customization of the assistance action.
