Abstract: A reliable technology for determining the masticatory side of the user is provided. First and second electromyographic waveforms respectively originating from left and right muscles related to masticatory actions of a user are acquired; a coefficient of correlation between pieces of information respectively extracted from the first and the second electromyographic waveforms is calculated as a first feature value; a second feature value is calculated from a power spectrum obtained by performing frequency analysis on the first electromyographic waveform; a third feature value is calculated from a power spectrum obtained by performing frequency analysis on the second electromyographic waveform; a learning model is generated by associating the first, second, and third feature values with a plurality of labels; and the masticatory side of the user is determined based on first, second, and third feature values calculated from a newly acquired electromyographic waveform and the learning model.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method for determining the intensity of a low-frequency current are provided. The method includes: individually applying a corresponding first current to a body part of a user in N consecutive time intervals, wherein the time intervals include an i-th time interval to an (i+N)-th time interval; obtaining electromyography values of the body part in each time interval; determining a second current corresponding to an (i+N+1)-th time interval based on the first current corresponding to each time interval, the body part, personal information of the user, and the electromyography values of each time interval; and applying a second current to the body part of the user in the (i+N+1)-th time interval.

Abstract: A technique for using biofeedback to facilitate and quantify accurate patient assessments includes receiving brainwave activity readings of a provider and a recipient(s) before, during, and post an interaction between the provider and the recipient(s) for a procedure. The brainwave readings being indicative of the state of mind of the provider and the recipient(s). The provider performs a therapeutic or knowledge transfer to the patient(s)/recipient(s) and evaluates the impact/efficacy of the procedure on them. The system correlates the collected brainwave activity signals of the provider and the recipient(s) to determine the efficacy of the therapeutic or knowledge transfer procedure. The brainwave activity signals are collected using a headgear based on an electroencephalogram system and an electromyography system. The electromyography system positions electromyography sensors to measure scalp muscle movements of the provider and recipient(s) and remove the effects of scalp muscle movements from the electroencephalogram readings to provide true brainwave readings.
