The estimation of continuous and simultaneous multijoint angle based on surface electromyography (sEMG) signal is of considerable significance in rehabilitation practice. However, there are few studies on the continuous joint angle of multiple joints at present. In this paper, the wavelet packet energy entropy (WPEE) of the special subspace was investigated as a feature of the sEMG signal. An Elman neural network optimized by genetic algorithm (GA) was established to estimate the joint angle of shoulder and elbow. First, the accuracy of the method is verified by estimating the angle of the shoulder joint. Then, this method was used to simultaneously and continuously estimate the shoulder and elbow joint angle. Six subjects flexed and extended the upper limbs according to the intended movements of the experiment. The results show that this method can obtain a decent performance with a RMSE of 3.4717 and R2 of 0.8283 in shoulder movement and with a RMSE of 4.1582 and R2 of 0.8114 in continuous synchronous movement of the shoulder and elbow.

The purpose of this paper is to present an in-flight initial alignment method for the guided projectiles, obtained after launching, and utilizing the characteristic of the inertial device of a strapdown inertial navigation system. This method uses an Elman neural network algorithm, optimized by genetic algorithm in the initial alignment calculation. The algorithm is discussed in details and applied to the initial alignment process of the proposed guided projectile. Simulation results show the advantages of the optimized Elman neural network algorithm for the initial alignment problem of the strapdown inertial navigation system. It can not only obtain the same high-precision alignment as the traditional Kalman filter but also improve the real-time performance of the system.

Novel Method

A noveol neural network of Elman is typically dynamic recurrent neural network. A novel method of flow regime identification based on Elman neural network and wavelet packet decomposition is proposed in this paper. Above all, the collected pressure-difference fluctuation signals are decomposed by the four-layer wavelet packet, and the decomposed signals in various frequency bands are obtained within the frequency domain. Then the wavelet packet energy eigenvectors of flow regimes are established. At last the wavelet packet energy eigenvectors are input into Elman neural network and flow regime intelligent identification can be performed.

Short Term Load Forecasting

Elman Neural Network is a typical neural-network which shares the characteristics of multiple-layer and dynamic recurrent, and it’s more suitable than BP Neural Network when it’s applied to forecast the short-term load with periodicity and similarity. To solve the problem that Elman Neural Network lacks learning efficiency, GA-Elman model is established by optimizing the weights and thresholds using Genetic Algorithm. An example is then given to prove the effectiveness of GA-Elman model, using the load data of a certain region. Relative error and MSE have been considered as criterions to analyze the results of load forecasting. By comparing the results calculated by BP, Elman and GA-Elman model, the effectiveness of GA-Elman model is verified, which will improve the accuracy of short-term load forecasting.

Abstract In order to help patients after surgery to carry out reasonable rehabilitation training, avoid joint adhesions and movement disorders, the relationship between surface electromyograph (sEMG) signal changes and the size of the patient ' s joint force in the process of rehabilitation exercise was studied, hoping to use the relationship between them to redesign the control mode of the rehabilitation robot, and a method was proposed to identify the size of the elbow load based on wavelet packet. Firstly, s EMG signals of human elbow joint during stretching and bending under different loads were collected by 4-channel surface electromyography. Then, the wavelet packet decomposition method was used to obtain the feature vector composed of energy(E), variance(VAR) and mean absolute value(MAV) of wavelet packet coefficient. Finally, the improved support vector machine ( ISVM), BP neural network and RBF neural network were used for pattern recognition of three different forces. The experimental results show that the change of sEMG signal is indeed related to the size of joint force. It is feasible to identify the load of s EMG signal.
