Abstract:The electromyogram (EMG) signals recorded from the surface of skeletal muscles are stochastic in nature and exhibit repeatable patterns for similar muscle activations. Therefore, machine learning algorithms can be used to learn their patterns and identify the movement intent even in the absence of an actual limb. The EMG signals are recorded from the residual muscles/muscle sites after amputation (acquired or congenital) and a representative set of features is extracted. The feature data are passed on to a mac… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
