An important new work establishing a foundation for futuredevelopments in neural engineering
The Handbook of Neural Engineering provides theoreticalfoundations in computational neural science and engineering andcurrent applications in wearable and implantable neuralsensors/probes. Inside, leading experts from diverse disciplinarygroups representing academia, industry, and private and governmentorganizations present peer-reviewed contributions on thebrain-computer interface, nano-neural engineering, neuralprostheses, imaging the brain, neural signal processing, the brain,and neurons.
The Handbook of Neural Engineering covers:
* Neural signal and image processing--the analysis and modelingof neural activity and EEG-related activities using the nonlinearand nonstationary analysis methods, including the chaos, fractal,and time-frequency and time-scale analysis methods--and how tomeasure functional, physiological, and metabolic activities in thehuman brain using current and emerging medical imagingtechnologies
* Neuro-nanotechnology, artificial implants, and neuralprosthesis--the design of multi-electrode arrays to study how theneurons of human and animals encode stimuli, the evaluation offunctional changes in neural networks after stroke and spinal cordinjuries, and improvements in therapeutic applications using neuralprostheses
* Neurorobotics and neural rehabilitation engineering--the recentdevelopments in the areas of biorobotic system, biosonar head, limbkinematics, and robot-assisted activity to improve the treatment ofelderly subjects at the hospital and home, as well as theinteractions of the neuron chip, neural information processing,perception and neural dynamics, learning memory and behavior,biological neural networks, and neural control
