Fuzzy logic 1.0 vGRF Control
A fuzzy logic controller can addresses four major challenges:
non-linear, time variant: heel strike (contact events), material properties
ill-defined: knowledge is qualitative and descriptive, not analytical
underdetermined: vGRF= f (nine tendons, tibia kinematics)
limited number of simulations allowedneural networks and genetic algorithms not appropriate
As a model-free paradigm a fuzzy rule based controller is well suited for highly nonlinear MIMO systems, [Ross, 2004].
