Abstract

Abstract: In sEMG (surface electromyography) pattern recognition, most of the research focuses on the static pattern recognition of different limbs, ignoring the importance of changing load intensity, and joint angle movement information. Traditional static qualitative pattern recognition cannot adjust the motion amplitude and load intensity, so it is of great significance to study the continuous prediction of wrist angle under different load intensities. Based on the correlation between the surface EMG signal and the joint angle signal, the article is based on the neural network to identify and predict the wrist angle under different loads continuously quantitatively. The sEMG signal in this article was collected with the approval and review of the Ethics Committee and the people's informed consent. Since qualitative pattern recognition cannot adjust the wrist movement range and the different load training intensity, the article establishes an angle prediction model based on a genetic algorithm to optimize the extreme learning machine (ELM). In addition, the article analyzes the influence of different loads on the continuous prediction accuracy of the wrist angle, realizes the continuous quantitative angle of the precise wrist prediction. Experimental analysis shows that the wrist joint angle predicted by the ELM optimized based on genetic algorithm is close to the actual angle, and the average error is about 5.96 degrees.
