Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Various myoelectric prostheses controlled by electromyography (EMG) signals have been developed. However, there have been few studies that provide fast and accurate methods to predict handgrip force from EMG signals. Rapid and precise handgrip force prediction is required, especially for the real-time control system of myoelectric prostheses. In this study, extreme learning machine (ELM) is applied to predict handgrip force from surface EMG signals of forearm muscles. Furthermore, ELM is compared with support vector machine (SVM) and multiple nonlinear regression (MNLR). The below 10 % of the surface EMG and handgrip force signals were cut away, and then the root mean square feature extracted from the modified surface EMG signals was taken as input vector for these three kinds of predicting mechanisms. For the testing dataset, ELM achieved a slightly larger root mean squared error than SVM did and a smaller one than MNLR did. Meanwhile, all three methods showed high correlation coefficients. For the total processing time, ELM and MNLR consumed much less time than SVM did. Experimental results demonstrate that ELM possesses a relatively good accuracy and little consumed time, although SVM is effective for handgrip force estimation in terms of accuracy. Overall, ELM has a promising potential for predicting handgrip force rapidly and precisely.
