Examining the adverse effects of limb position on pattern recognition based myoelectric control

Pattern recognition of myoelectric signals for the control of prosthetic devices has been widely reported and debated. A large portion of the literature focuses on offline classification accuracy of pre-recorded signals. Historically, however, there has been a semantic gap between research findings and a clinically viable implementation. Recently, renewed focus on prosthetics research has pushed the field to provide more clinically relevant...
