Handbook of Neural Engineering (IEEE Press Series on Biomedical Engineering)

An important new work establishing a foundation for future developments in neural engineeringThe Handbook of Neural Engineering provides theoretical foundations in computational neural science and engineering and current applications in wearable and implantable neural sensors/probes. Inside, leading experts from diverse disciplinary groups representing academia, industry, and private and government organizations present peerreviewed contributions on the braincomputer interface, nanoneural engineering, neural prostheses, imaging the brain, neural signal processing, the brain, and neurons.The Handbook of Neural Engineering covers: Neural signal and image processingthe analysis and modeling of neural activity and EEGrelated activities using the nonlinear and nonstationary analysis methods, including the chaos, fractal, and timefrequency and timescale analysis methodsand how to measure functional, physiological, and metabolic activities in the human brain using current and emerging medical imaging technologies Neuronanotechnology, artificial implants, and neural prosthesisthe design of multielectrode arrays to study how the neurons of human and animals encode stimuli, the evaluation of functional changes in neural networks after stroke and spinal cord injuries, and improvements in therapeutic applications using neural prostheses Neurorobotics and neural rehabilitation engineeringthe recent developments in the areas of biorobotic system, biosonar head, limb kinematics, and robotassisted activity to improve the treatment of elderly subjects at the hospital and home, as well as the interactions of the neuron chip, neural information processing, perception and neural dynamics, learning memory and behavior, biological neural networks, and neural control
