Maximum Swing Flexion or Gait Symmetry: A Comparative Evaluation of Control Targets on Metabolic Energy Expenditure of Amputee Using Intelligent Prosthetic Knee

Background. The metabolic energy expenditure (MEE) was the most important assessment standard of intelligent prosthetic knee (IPK). Maximum swing flexion (MSF) angle and gait symmetry (GS) were two control targets representing different developing directions for IPK. However, the few comparisons bas...
