The Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling Pipeline: MATLAB-based Model Personalization and Treatment Optimization Functionality for OpenSim

Claire V. Hammond, S.T. Williams, Marleny M. Vega…·Benjamin Jon Fregly

MATLAB toolsets add joint, muscle, synergy, and foot-contact personalization and optimal-control treatment design to OpenSim; one post-stroke case predicted 60% faster walking at equal metabolic cost.
