Study Summary
The overall goal of this project is to model human joint biomechanics over continuously-varying locomotion to enable adaptive control of powered above-knee prostheses. The central hypothesis of this project is that variable joint impedance can be parameterized by a continuous model based on measurable quantities called phase and task variables. This project will use machine learning to identify variable impedance functions from able-bodied data including joint perturbation responses across the phase/task space to bias the solution toward biological values.
Primary Outcome
Mechanical work at the prosthetic knee and ankle will be assessed for participants using the powered prosthesis in A1.3 and A2.3, with comparisons to able-bodied averages. Joint work will be calculated by multiplying the joint's commanded torque by its measured velocity, resulting in units of Joules.
