Locomotion assistive devices equipped with a microprocessor can potentially automatically
adapt their behavior when the user is transitioning from one locomotion mode to another …

The lower-limb robotic prostheses can provide assistance for amputees' daily activities by
restoring the biomechanical functions of missing limb (s). To set proper control strategies …

Objective. The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate an adaptive intent
recognition algorithm that continuously learns to incorporate a lower limb amputee's neural …

Many people struggle with mobility impairments due to lower limb amputations. To
participate in society, they need to be able to walk on a wide variety of terrains, such as …

Most amputations occur in lower limbs and despite improvements in prosthetic technology,
no commercially available prosthetic leg uses electromyography (EMG) information as an …

Powered lower limb prostheses can improve amputees' ability to traverse stairs and ramps
by providing positive mechanical work at the knee and ankle joint. EMG signals have been …

Pattern recognition in EMG-based control systems suffer from increase in error rate over
time, which could lead to unwanted behavior. This so-called concept drift in myoelectric …

Powered prosthetic legs are capable of improving the gait of lower limb amputees. Pattern
recognition systems for these devices allow amputees to transition between different …

EMG control of powered upper limb prostheses is difficult and imprecise. One approach for
improving control is to help amputees develop more accurate internal models of their …

Abstract Background and Objective: Commercially available motorized prosthetic legs use
exclusively non-biological signals to control movements, such as those provided by load …
