原文アブストラクト
Learning-based controllers can deliver exoskeleton assistance after training entirely in physics-based simulation, yet few controllers that address human-device co-adaptation have been validated on real users by whole-body metabolic measurement, the standard benchmark for assistive walking. Co-adaptation is challenging: as the device alters joint dynamics, the wearer reorganizes neuromuscular coordination, producing a non-stationary learning problem. Staged Multi-Agent Training (SMAT), a four-stage curriculum that progressively trains a musculoskeletal human actor and a bilateral hip exoskeleton actor, was introduced and shown to reduce simulated hip-muscle activation and provide positive assistance on hardware. This article provides the first physiological validation of SMAT. The policy was deployed on a hip exoskeleton and tested with eight healthy adults, with metabolic cost measured by indirect calorimetry across no-exoskeleton, passive, and active conditions. Active assistance lowered net metabolic rate by 19.7% relative to the passive device (p < 0.001). Biomechanical analysis confirmed predominantly positive hip mechanical power across all subjects (positive-power ratio 0.98), and the policy generalized across walking speeds and terrains. Together, these results show that a single simulation-trained SMAT policy, deployed without subject-specific retraining, delivers a significant metabolic benefit on real users while remaining robust beyond the conditions it was trained on.
