Nominal possible torque represents the peak amount of torque capable of being provided by the exoskeleton. Nominal provided torque represents the setpoint used during the trial that resulted in the lowest metabolic cost of transport.
Torque RMSE reports the root-mean-squared error between the desired torque and the measured torque.
