About
Hairong Yu is a researcher at the forefront of assistive rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on human–robot interaction and biomechatronic control. Her work centers on decoding neuromuscular signals to enhance robotic assistance for individuals with motor impairments. In her highly cited 2019 study, "Estimation of Ankle Joint Torque and Angle Based on S-EMG Signal for Assistive Rehabilitation Robots," Yu pioneered a method to accurately predict ankle joint dynamics using surface electromyography (s-EMG) signals. This contribution is pivotal for developing intuitive, adaptive exoskeletons and prosthetics that respond in real time to user intent. By bridging the gap between neural command and mechanical actuation, her research directly improves the efficacy and safety of rehabilitation devices. With 17 citations, this paper has become a foundational reference for engineers and clinicians working on s-EMG-based control systems. Yu’s work not only advances theoretical understanding of neuromuscular modeling but also offers practical pathways toward more natural, patient-specific robotic therapy, making her a key contributor to the next generation of assistive technologies.
