Abstract :
The twelve papers in this special section are focused on recent scientific and engineering developments in control of upper-limb prostheses, ranging from novel signal processing and machine learning strategies for enhancing and extracting movement intention-related features from the inter-muscular and surface electromyogram (EMG) signals to advanced surgical and experimental procedures for targeted muscle and sensory re-innervation.
