In myoelectric prosthesis control, one of the hottest topics nowadays is enforcing simultaneous and proportional (s/p) control over several degrees of freedom. This problem is particularly hard and the scientific community has so far failed to provide a stable and reliable s/p control, effective in daily-life activities. In order to improve the reliability of this form of control, in this paper we propose on-the-fly knowledge composition, thereby reducing the burden of matching several patterns at the same time, and simplifying the task of the system. In particular, we show that using our method it is possible to dynamically compose a model by juxtaposing subsets of previously gathered (sample, target) pairs in real-time, rather than composing a single model in the beginning and then hoping it can reliably distinguish all patterns. Fourteen intact subjects participated in an experiment, where repetitive daily-life tasks (e.g. ironing a cloth) were performed using a commercially available dexterous prosthetic hand mounted on a splint and wirelessly controlled using a machine learning method. During the experiment, the subjects performed these tasks using myocontrol with and without knowledge composition and the results demonstrate that employing knowledge composition allowed better performance, i.e. reducing the overall task completion time by 30%.
