Using human-in-the-loop optimization for guiding manual prosthesis adjustments: a proof-of-concept study by Siena C. Senatore, Kota Z. Takahashi, Philippe Malcolm

“…To evaluate the performance of the optimization algorithm, we used a convergence criterium. We evaluated the accuracy by comparing it against the optimum from a full sweep of all combinations.Results: In five out of the eight participants, the human-in-the-loop optimization reduced the time taken to find an optimal combination; however, in three participants, the human-in-the-loop optimization either converged by the last iteration or did not converge.Discussion: Findings from this study show that the human-in-the-loop methodology could be helpful in tasks that require manually adjusting an assistive device, such as optimizing an unpowered prosthesis. …”
