Abstract
Advancements in neurosurgical robotics have improved medical procedures, particularly deep brain stimulation, where robots combine human and machine intelligence to precisely implant electrodes in the brain. While effective, this procedure carries risks and side effects. Noninvasive deep brain stimulation (NIDBS) offers promise by making brain stimulation safer, more affordable, and accessible. However, NIDBS lacks guidelines for electrode placement. This study explores adapting robotic principles to enhance the accuracy of NIDBS targeting and provides preliminary guidelines for transcranial electrode placement.

Hi, I’m Mobina, an M.Sc. mechatronics researcher passionate about non-invasive assessment of human cognitive performance. My work sits at the intersection of computer vision, biosignal analysis, and machine learning, developing multimodal frameworks that combine vision-based pose estimation, IMU motion capture, and eye tracking for interpretable behavioral analysis. I enjoy designing algorithms and experimental systems that connect mechatronic instrumentation with real-world cognitive assessment.
