A Data Driven Approach for Predicting Preferred Ankle Stiffness of a Quasi-Passive Prosthesis
Emerging variable-stiffness ankle prostheses can modulate their stiffness to meet differing biomechanical demands. To this end, knowledge of the optimal ankle stiffness is required for each user and activity. One approach is to match the stiffness of prosthesis to the user’s preference, but t
