OBJECTIVE: Walking task prediction in powered leg prostheses is an important problem in the development of biomimetic prosthesis controllers. This paper proposes a novel method to predict upcoming walking tasks by estimating the translational motion ...
This paper is concerned with the exponential stabilization of memristive neural networks (MNNs) by taking into account the sampled-data control and actuator saturation. On the one hand, the MNNs are converted into a tractable model by defining a clas...
