Comparative analysis of machine learning algorithms on myoelectric signal from intact and transradial amputated limbs

Abstract

<p>Control strategies of smart hand prosthesis-based myoelectric signals in<br />recent years don't provide the patients with the sensation of biological<br />control of prostheses hand fingers. Therefore, in current work<br />hyperparameters optimization in machine learning algorithm and hand<br />gesture recognition techniques were applied to the myoelectric signal-based<br />on residual muscles contraction of the amputees corresponding to intact<br />forearm limb movement to improve their biological control. In this paper,<br />myoelectric signals are extracted using the MYO armband to recognize ten<br />gestures from ten volunteers (healthy and transradial amputation) on the<br />forearm, thereafter the noise of myoelectric signals using a notch filter (NF)<br />is removed. The proposed classification system involved two machine<br />learning algorithms: (1) the decision tree (DT), tri-layered neural network<br />(TLNN), k-nearest-neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM) and<br />ensemble boosted tree (EBT) classifiers. (2) the optimized machine learning<br />classifiers, i.e., OKNN, OSVM, OEBT with optical diffraction tomography<br />(ODT) and ommatidia detecting algorithm (ODA). The experimental results<br />of classifiers comparison pointed out an algorithm that outperformed with<br />high accuracy is OEBT closely followed by OKNN achieves an accuracy of<br />97.8% and 97.1% for intact forearm limb, while for transradial amputation<br />with an accuracy of 91.9% and 91.4%, respectively.</p>
