Table 4. Comparison of moment error values reported in the literature with moment error values reported in this study.

Other EMG-driven studies not indicated [12,1619] have prediction errors greater than those listed in this table or use a variety of activities for calibration and/or testing and are therefore disqualified from comparison. For the knee and ankle joints, the studies shown calibrate and test their models using only gait data. Sartori et al. 2014 was the only available EMG-driven model of the hip, and was calibrated using a variety of activities.
