Abstract

See full text

This disclosure relates to a hierarchy of classifiers, including linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifiers, arranged to provide simultaneous control of multiple degrees of freedom of a prosthetic. The high accuracy of the hierarchical approach allows pattern recognition techniques to be extended to permit simultaneous control, potentially allowing amputees to produce more fluid, life-like movements, ultimately increasing their quality of life. The hierarchy may also be used to control a biological interface that allows input to computers for persons with disabilities, used as a potential video-game controller, and used as an input interface for tablets, and phones.
