Abstract:
:A novel method for hand movement pattern recognition from electromyography (EMG) biological signals is proposed. These signals are recorded by a three-channel data acquisition system using surface electrodes placed over the forearm, and then processed to recognize five hand movements: opening, closing, supination, flexion, and extension. Such method combines the Hilbert-Huang analysis with a fuzzy clustering classifier. A set of metrics, calculated from the time contour of the Hilbert Spectrum, is used to compute a discriminating three-dimensional feature space. The classification task in this feature-space is accomplished by a two-stage procedure where training cases are initially clustered with a fuzzy algorithm, and test cases are then classified applying a nearest-prototype rule. Empirical analysis of the proposed method reveals an average accuracy rate of 96% in the recognition of surface EMG signals.
