Robust Closed-Loop Control of a Cursor in a Person with Tetraplegia using Gaussian Process Regression.

abstract：:When we move our body to perform a movement task, our central nervous system selects a movement trajectory from an infinite number of possible trajectories under constraints that have been acquired through evolution and learning. Minimization of the energy cost has been suggested as a potential candidate for a constra...
