To improve the reliability and safety of myoelectric prosthetic control, many researchers tend to use multi-modal signals. The combination of electromyography (EMG) and forcemyography (FMG) has been proved to be a practical choice. However, an integrative and compact design of this hybrid sensor is lacking. This paper presents a novel modular EMG–FMG sensor; the sensing module has a novel design that consists of floating electrodes, which act as the sensing probe of both the EMG and FMG. This design improves the integration of the sensor. The whole system contains one data acquisition unit and eight identical sensor modules. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the sensor system. The results show that the EMG and FMG signals have good consistency under standard conditions; the FMG signal shows a better and more robust performance than the EMG. The average accuracy is 99.07% while using both the EMG and FMG signals for recognition of six hand gestures under standard conditions. Even with two layers of gauze isolated between the sensor and the skin, the average accuracy reaches 90.9% while using only the EMG signal; if we use both the EMG and FMG signals for classification, the average accuracy is 99.42%.

Emg Signal

EMG signal-based pattern recognition (EMG-PR) techniques have gained lots of focus to develop myoelectric prosthesis. The performance of the prosthesis control-based applications mainly depends on extraction of eminent features with minimum neural information loss. The machine learning algorithms have a significant role to play for the development of Intelligent upper-limb prosthetic control (iULP) using EMG signal. This paper proposes a new technique of extracting the features known as advanced time derivative moments (ATDM) for effective pattern recognition of amputees. Four heterogeneous datasets have been used for testing and validation of the proposed technique. Out of the four datasets, three datasets have been taken from the standard NinaPro database and the fourth dataset comprises data collected from three amputees. The efficiency of ATDM features is examined with the help of Davies–Bouldin (DB) index for separability, classification accuracy and computational complexity. Further, it has been compared with similar work and the results reveal that ATDM features have excellent classification accuracy of 98.32% with relatively lower time complexity. The lower values of DB criteria prove the good separation of features belonging to various classes. The results are carried out on 2.6[Formula: see text]GHz Intel core i7 processor with MATLAB 2015a platform.

This paper presents the implementation of a Region-based Convolutional Neural Network focused on the recognition and localization of hand gestures, in this case 2 types of gestures: open and closed hand, in order to achieve the recognition of such gestures in dynamic backgrounds. The neural network is trained and validated, achieving a 99.4% validation accuracy in gesture recognition and a 25% average accuracy in RoI localization, which is then tested in real time, where its operation is verified through times taken for recognition, execution behavior through trained and untrained gestures, and complex backgrounds.

Testing Data

This paper presents the EMG signal classification based on PCA and SVM method. The data is acquired from the 5 subjects and each subject perform 7 hand gestures includes the tripod, power, precision closed, finger point, mouse, hand open, and hand close. Each gesture is repeated 10 times (5 data as training data and the 5 remaining data as testing data). Each of training and testing data are processed using 16 features extraction in time–domain and reduced using principal component analysis (PCA) to obtain new set of features. Features classification using support vector machine classify new set of features from each subject result 85% - 89% percentage of training classification. Training data classification is tested using testing data of EMG signals and giving accuracy reach 80% - 86%.
