A real-time comparison between direct control sequential pattern recognition control and simultaneous pattern recognition control using a Fitts’ law style assessment procedure

摘要

BackgroundPattern recognition (PR) based strategies for the control of myoelectric upper limb prostheses are generally evaluated through offline classification accuracy, which is an admittedly useful metric, but insufficient to discuss functional performance in real time. Existing functional tests are extensive to set up and most fail to provide a challenging, objective framework to assess the strategy performance in real time.
