Implication

Experimental evaluation demonstrates staged neural network compensation reduces joint tracking errors in a lower-limb rehabilitation robot, highlighting improved robotic gait training precision.

Key Points

Develop and evaluate a staged joint-compensation strategy utilizing multilayer perceptron and Transformer models to enhance joint trajectory tracking accuracy in lower-limb rehabilitation robots.
Partitioned gait control into initiation, cyclic, and termination phases, employing a multilayer perceptron for short-term aperiodic errors and a Transformer model with repetitive control for cyclic periodic errors.
Integrated phase detection, safety constraints, and motor-level field-oriented control into a custom robotic rehabilitation platform.
Evaluated tracking performance using a 165 cm, 60 kg mannequin load across repeated trials and ablation analyses.
Reduced left hip joint-angle RMSE from 0.692° to 0.494° (28.6% reduction) and right hip RMSE from 0.687° to 0.402° (41.5% reduction).
Decreased left knee joint-angle RMSE from 1.754° to 0.426° (75.7% reduction) and right knee RMSE from 1.667° to 0.461° (72.3% reduction).
