A Muscle Synergy-inspired Adaptive Control Scheme for a Hybrid Walking Neuroprosthesis

Abstract--- Abstract--- A hybrid neuroprosthesis that uses an electric motor-based wearable exoskeleton and functional electrical stimulation (FES) has a promising potential to restore walking in persons with paraplegia. A hybrid actuation structure introduces effector redundancy, making its automat...
