Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The quality of surface Electromyography (sEMG) signals could be an issue if highly contaminated by Power Line Interference (PLI), Electrocardiogram signal (ECG), Movement Artifact (MOA) or White Gaussian Noise (WGN), that could lead to unsafe operation of devices that is controlled by sEMG data, such as electro-mechanical prothesis. There are some mitigation methods proposed for some specifics sEMG contaminants and to use these methods in an efficient way is important to identify the contaminant in the sEMG signal. In this work we propose the use of a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) units in the hidden layer with no need of features extraction with the objective to classify the signal directly from sequences of the band-pass filtered data. The method proposed use the NinaPro database with amputee and non-amputee subjects. Only non-amputee subjects are used for parameters selection and then tested on both databases. The results show that 98% of the non-contaminated sEMG data was corrected classified and more than 95% of the contaminants were identified inside the training SNR range. Also, in this work is presented a SNR sensibility control and the contamination analysis in the range from -40 dB to 40 dB in 10 dB steps. The conclusion is that is possible to classify the contamination type in sEMG signals with a RNN-LSTM with a 112.5 ms time window and to predicted with a small error the classification hit rate for each SNR level in some cases.
