Abstract
Electromyography (EMG) pattern recognition is one of the widely used methods to control the rehabilitation robots and prostheses. However, the changes in the distribution of EMG data due to electrodes shifting results in classification decline, which hinders its clinical application in repeated uses. Adaptive learning can solve this problem but takes additional time. To address this, an efficient scheme is developed by comparing the performance of 12 combinations of three feature selection methods [no feature selection (NFS), sequential forward search (SFS), and particle swarm optimization (PSO)] and four classification methods [non-adaptive support vector machine (N-SVM), incremental SVM (I-SVM), SVM based on TrAdaBoost (T-SVM), and I-SVM based on TrAdaBoost (TI-SVM)] in the classification of EMG data of 12 subjects for 5 consecutive days. Our results showed that TI-SVM achieved the highest classification accuracy among the classification methods (p < 0.05). The SFS method achieved the same classification accuracy as that of the scheme trained with the feature vectors selected by the NFS method (p = 0.999) while achieving a lower training time than that of TI-SVM combined with the NFS method (p = 0.043). Although the PSO method outperformed the NFS and SFS methods by achieving reduced training and response times (p < 0.05), the PSO method achieved a considerably lower classification accuracy than that of the scheme trained with the feature vectors selected by the NFS (p = 0.001) or SFS (p = 0.001) method. Furthermore, TI-SVM combined with the SFS method outperformed the CNN method with fine-tuning in classification accuracy on a small data set (p = 0.001). The results indicate that TI-SVM combined with the SFS method is suitable for improving the performance of EMG pattern recognition in repeated uses.
