In the process of creating powered transfemoral prostheses, one of the most important tasks is the provision of the user safety while walking. Experience shows that security depends not only on the mechanical strength of such devices, but also on the quality of their control systems, which, among other things, must ensure that latency and error rates of recognition are acceptable for each of the possible changes in gait. Incorrect or late recognition of the activity mode at best can lead to subo
